Why do noses run? And why do my kids' noses run more than everyone else's? Really.
Why do tears fall? (Well, I guess there is gravity...)
Why do spiders look so scary? Why didn't God make them a little cuter if He knew we'd be spending so much time with them?
What is really going on inside an 18 month old brain? He's gotta be laughing at me, right?
Why does time and energy escape me so easily?
Why don't I get time outs for bad behavior? Maybe it would help.
Why don't they get it the first time? I really wanna know. Why am I constantly repeating myself?
What is under their fingernails? They haven't been outside. Where's this dirt coming from?
Why is it so easy to love my kids and simultaneously so easy to lose my patience?
What is so fascinating about boogers? Really?
Why does hair grow?
Why do I love this job even though most of the time I'm completely lost and out of my element?
Why do we like sweets and sugar more than the flavor of green beans or carrots? Why doesn't healthy food taste better?
Or why don't sweet foods have more nutrients in them?
Why can't anything ever stay clean? I'm not asking for forever cleanliness, just like a day. A day of no spills or dirt. Can't we keep the floor crumb free for a day?
How does every other mother in the world always know what to say and how to teach their kids when I never know what to say or how to teach them anything?
Will my children remember that there was a lot of fun in their childhood?
Will they know that I wouldn't trade a second of my time with them for anything else in the world?
How can two little people be so darn cute all the time?
How can only four little letters sum up all that I feel for my children?
l-o-v-e.

I feel the same way, but when the time comes, you will know what to say...there's been some tender moments in my house when I've been promopted to teach a principle and I've acted on it.
Those are some good questions! When you get some answers let me know...I am dying to know!
it's not dirt under their fingernails it's poop!
Amen to that one!! I too am so tired of WHY from my three year old.
ewww Aaron.
It looks like you ran into the same problem as I did. I hated the backgrounds available. So I spent hours fixing mine. Now connnor thinks I am addicted to it. But really, I am done! Looks like Co is treating you good! I am jealous!
Aaron, maybe that's whats under Syd and Wes' nails, or yours...
Either way, thanks for the chuckle!
Small world- I ate dinner with your brother and his family a few months ago! How are you?
