Tough Questions

We've finally hit the "WHY?" phase.

"Mama why do you have to go to the bathroom?'
"Why is the wind strong?"
"Why do I have to eat my veggies?"
"Why does the sun go down?"

And last night.... as I was reading a devotional...

Amaya: "Are you spending time with God?"
Me: "Yup."
Amaya: "Why are you spending time with God?"
Me: "Because it's important to listen and talk to God so we know Him better."
Amaya: "Can I see God?"
Me: "No, we can't see God."
Amaya: "Where is God?"
Me: "God is in heaven."
Amaya: "Can I go there, tonight?"
Me: "Ummm.... not until God wants us to go there."

I'm really not ready for all of these tough questions. Any advice?
