Why?

Jakob is asking a lot of questions lately. Well, he's been asking a lot of questions for the last 3 years. The questions he is asking lately are harder than they ever have been. The following are a few I remember:

• Why did God make me?
• What is the difference between regular paper and money?
• What are my nails made out of?
• Can we get a new dog when BJ dies?
• How did I get out of your belly?
• Why do all the unhealthy foods taste better than the healthy foods?
• Why do I have to practice reading when I am not in school?
• Why does time go slower when I am in the learning centers at school?
• Why are some people blind?
• Why are people mean?

These are just a few questions he has asked lately that I have really had to think about my answers. I have put him off sometimes by saying I had to think about that for a little while. (sometimes he'll forget his question) I love his curiosity, but I am struggling to find the answers he will understand. Some of the answers I don't understand.
