But why?

ok, for those of you with kids older than 2ish...how do you deal with the "but why mommy" stage? I thought maybe Belle had skipped past it and we were lucky, but the whys are out with a vengeance the last few days and it seems to be getting worse every minute. I'm going to pull my hair out. How do I answer, or do I ? Do I ignore her when she repeatedly asks it?

It depends what she is asking "why" for, if she is curious about something then I suggest

that's funny Mel LOL

Natalie is 6 and still asks why everything... sometimes it's a no brainer though... "because GOD made it/them that way", and when she asks why again... "I don't know... ask Him when you get to Heaven" LOL.

Sometimes I can get away with "I don't know... WHY do *you* think it is that way?" It's funny the answers I get sometimes.
