I was answering all of these questions twice, until I discovered this child has the annoying habit of saying, "WHAT?"    Now, instead of repeating myself, I ask her, "What did I just say?" And she can always repeat the answer word for word. We'll soon be rid of that bad habit!   (Now we just need to work on some of mine...)

A few days ago I said that a four-year-old reportedly asks four hundred questions a day.  I began a record of all the questions Emily asked me, but she got sick and wasn't up to her usual curiosity for a few days. So my list below is not a collection of questions asked in one day; instead, it is over, maybe, three days.  You will see that there are only about six questions.  That is because I did not want to type out the remaining three questions one hundred thirty-one times apiece ("Can I get on the computer?","Can I have something to eat?", and "What can I do now?") LOL.
