It's been a crazy couple of weeks around the Houle house! I was accepted to nursing school for the spring '11 term and had two days of intense orientation at the school. Our garage roof, which has been threatening failure for ages, finally produced a big old hole two days before the great 2011 blizzard. We found out we were not getting a tax refund this year, but instead owe $130 to the state, so fixing the garage with anything other than a patch is out of the question for a bit. A friend lost her father two months after her mother passed. And, finally, Tim's windshield wiper mechanism went kaput on the eve of the second blizzard of the year! Gah! Anyway, here are a couple gems I've been saving for posting.
Both of these have to do with his "but why" obsession in differing, hilarious, ways!
Sebastian: Where we going?
Mama: To papa's house.
Sebastian: But why?
Mama: Because mama needs to work.
Sebastian: But why?
Mama: Because I need to make money.
Sebastian: But why?
Mama: I don't know, what do you think?
Sebastian: No! I no wanna think!
Sebastian: Fireworks!
Mama: I don't see any fireworks.
Sebastian: Yeah!
Mama: It's a little early in the year for fireworks buddy.
Sebastian: But why?
Mama: Because people don't usually do fireworks until the fourth of July.
Sebastian: But why?
Mama: Because they like to celebrate America's independence.
Sebastian: But why?
Mama: Umm, I don't know.
Sebastian: Try "because"
Mama: You mean you want me to say "because"?
Sebastian: Yes
Mama: OK, because.
Sebastian: But why?
Mama (laughing now): You crack me up!
Sebastian (laughing too): You crack me down!
