Why not, Mommy?

We are in a new phase, the why phase.

In the car on the way to the park.
Sophie, "I need my jacket."
Mommy, "I didn't know it was going to be cold and I didn't bring it."
Sophie, "Why not?"

In the car, looking for a place to eat in Ft. Collins.
Mommy, "I'm looking for a place for lunch, but I don't know where to go."
Sophie, "Why not, Mommy?"
Mommy, "Because we don't live in Ft. Collins and I don't know this place that well."
Sophie, "Why not, Mommy?"

At home.
Sophie, "I want a green bandaid?
Mommy, "We don't have green, just beige."
Sophie, "Why not?"
