Why? How? What?

Posted on October 1, 2007 8 Comments

Ah you have to laugh… otherwise you go insane… right Sif???

Zoe – “How do bats sleep?”
Me – “they hang upside down to sleep.”
Zoe – “How do cats sleep?”
Me – “They curl up in a ball, Aunty Sarah’s cat sleeps in her bed!!!”
Zoe – “How do dogs sleep?”
Me – “Um… maybe they sleep in a kennel? in a basket?”
Izzy – “How do lions sleep?”
Me – “um… er… they sleep in the grass.”
Zoe – “How do giraffes sleep?”
Me – “umm….”
Izzy – “how do guinea pigs sleep??”
Me – “ummm….”
Zoe – “How do fish sleep?”
Do fish even sleep??????????

Izzy – “Mamma…what is ham made out of?”
Me – “Ham is made out of a pig”
Izzy – ” What is bread made out of?”
Me – “flour and water and yeast….”
Izzy – “Mamma…. what is apple made out of??”
Me – “umm… apple…just apple”
Izzy – “but what’s it made out of??”
Me – “well it’s from an apple tree”
Izzy “What are trees made out of?”
arrrghhhhhhhhhh?!?!?!?!

Zoe “Why do you love me?”
Me “because you are my special girl”
Zoe “but why am I special?”
Me “because you are smart, and beautiful and funny and crazy…”
Zoe “Why am I crazy?”
Me “Because you do crazy things”
Zoe ” Why do you love me??”

Izzy woke at about midnight last night for a little bit of exorcist action. When she stopped crying after a little while and I could finally understand what she was saying this is what I heard…
“No! Too much money… I don’t like it… too much fashioned old money!!!!!”
Thankfully the night terror didn’t go too long but Mum I blame YOU!

    Oh Kate – I feel for you! The incessant questions generally end up with Madison saying- “I’ll ask daddy – HE knows EVERYTHING’!
