A Questions Sampling

The boys are full of unanswerable questions. So many times every day they ask questions that just have no logical answer. I typically draw a complete blank because there is really no way to answer the question with something they don't already know. It's usually annoying, sometimes embarrassing, and once-in-awhile hysterically funny. Cal's greatest question ever asked happened around Christmas when we received a package from Grandma and Papa. They like to send us their nut goodie bars and other delicious cookies around the holidays. We opened the package and there were smaller packages inside-- presumably cookies. Cal helped me open one and when he saw its contents was utterly disgusted. It wasn't anything edible.

"Why is this...not chocolate?" 

I don't think this question could possibly be asked often enough. 

I've been keeping track of some of theboys' questions from today and yesterday, to give you a tasty sampling. Enjoy. I'll be adding to this list...
