The first of many questions

Maggie has entered another phase, that of relentlessly presenting the same question despite being given the answer early on in the series. The most frequent questions are, “Where going?” (translation–”Where are we going?”) and “Doing?” (translation–”What are you doing?”). Seriously, she will ask ten times in one minute and there’s no getting her to stop. Oh well, hazards of the parent gig.
This questioning came in the cute form the other day. She and I spent a daddy and daughter day in Boise on Friday because Erin had to work and Maggie’s daycare was closed. Since we have been contemplating buying bike and a tow-behind trailer, she and I went to Target to see what they have to offer. I found one I liked, got it down off the shelf, and began pedaling down one of the aisles. From her perch in the cart, Maggie said, “Going, daddy?” She actually thought I was going somewhere, that I might leave her there. Like I said–cute.
