Spider Pig


While driving to school this morning, out of nowhere I was singing to Joel the chorus from the song Spider Pig - Simpsons movie. Then, as usual, Joel and his "WHY" questions.

Here's the conversation this morning.

Joel: So it is a spider or a pig?
Mummy: It's a pig.
Joel: Then WHY got spider?
Mummy (trying to be clever): So is Spiderman - a man or spider?
Joel: Man.
Joel: But WHY got spider?
Mummy (feeling fed up already): BECAUSE the man ate the spider!
Joel: Ok.

When kids are at the age of punctuating with "WHYs?"... I tell you it's like pulling hairs off your armpits... ouch!
