Why…..Why….Why

I must hear the word why a million times a day with a curious three year old tagging along with me everywhere I go. Why this, why that. It doesn't bother me at all, even under the most stressful situations I try and answer her questions. I find it incredibly important to not only answer her why questions, but I answer all her questions with full responses. And If she asks me a question I don't know the answer to, I admit to her that I don't know. I rarely respond with a "just because that is the way it is" because there is always an answer to"why" if you think about it. But she is pretty good about why-ing me into submission.

  I know she doesn't fully understand most of the answers I give her but she will in time. If anything I'm hoping this makes her feel as though I value her curiosity, because I do. I know she won't be this age forever so I try and soak up every ounce of it that I can. I love engaging with her and her question she has about the world around her. 

Amar'e, hit me with your best why!

It's So Fun To Be Three

Amar'e is three years old. Wait, what?! Three years old! How amazingly fast the time has gone. I can safely say that she has changed the entire fabric of my being. Im not sure what it is about her but she managed to rewrite my entire operational system. This year we had a tiny party for friends and family. It was great! I just wish I would have been able to do more decorating and preparing then I did. I kind of just threw everything together that morning, but everything was perfect according to Amar'e and in the end that's all that matters.

It's hard to put into words home much I love this little girl.

P.S-My goal for this week is to get back on track. I have been thrown off  by some crazy combination of aliments that suddenly came on. There have been a lot of crazy things going on in my corner of the world that are hard to explain but hopefully I will have some answers to my questions Friday. I'll try and keep up.
