Why Mommy?

Okay so I thought maybe we missed the "why" stage, but no it all started on Sunday and is in full swing.
It has been pretty fun to see how many why's I can answer and yesterday morning I think I hit the record. But it was the last why that made me smile the most. He really was wondering why and then it all made sense to him.

Chase: Where's Daddy?
Mommy: At work.
Chase: Why Mommy?
Mommy: Because he needs to make money.
Chase: Why Mommy?
Mommy: So we can buy food.
Chase: Why Mommy?
Mommy: So we can be healthy.
Chase: Why Mommy?
Mommy: So our bodies are strong?
Chase: Why Mommy?
Mommy: Because we need to take care of our bodies.
Chase: Why Mommy?
Mommy: Because Heavenly Father gave us our bodies.
Chase: Why Mommy?
Mommy: Because he loves us.
Chase: Why Mommy?
Mommy: Because he wants us to be like him.
Chase: Why Mommy?
Mommy: So we can return to live with him someday.
Chase: Why Mommy?
Mommy: Because we want to be with our Heavenly Father.
Chase: Why Mommy?
Mommy: Because we love him.
Chase: Oh, right Mommy.
