Why? Because.

If I had a nickel for every time that I was asked why, then I'd be financially independent.

Since I have 50 kids, I get asked this question a lot. A lot. From challenging my decisions to wanting to know why numbers go on forever, I'm continually asked to explain things.


"Why was I born on that day?"


"Why do I have to play outside?"


"Why is blue blue?"


"Why don't you know what the first movie ever made was?"


"Why can't I stay up all night?"

Why is a question I ask too much as well. I usually vary it with What if? Why and What if can rob me of hours of sleep. I should probably just tell myself the same distracted answer that I give my kids, "Uh, I don't know. Because that's the way it is."
