Is that your final question?


My little thinker seems most inquisitive at bedtime. We read a book or two, then turn out the lights and talk about the day. She uses the one on one time to ask a number of questions. The subjects she covers baffle me with their diversity and scope. She would ask questions for hours if we let her, but after about 10 minutes I tell her "one last question."

Here are a few of her recent 'last' questions:

When can we go back to the water park AND why don't dinosaurs live anymore AND are dogs and dinosaurs friends? (like the 3 in 1? she is efficient...)

Did you know that there was grass when dinosaurs lived? Because dinosaurs eat grass.


How did God die? Because He is in heaven and you don't go to heaven until you die. Quite an easy one to answer at night to a 3 year old.

Why aren't sharks and dolphins and sperm whales in swimming pools?

Chuckle, chuckle. She certainly is a thinker.

Wow! So do you toss back a little ginseng green tea to prep for these bedtime sessions? I'd say she's keeping your neurons in good health.
