Just because

After Shabbos, K, Papa, & Daddy were watching the last few minutes of a football game. D left the room and we heard the lid of the cookie jar, and when Papa went to see what D was up to, he'd disappeared. I spotted him hiding behind the chair in the living room but didn't let on that I'd seen him. A few minutes later he came back in the family room and we asked him where he'd been.
"I was hiding," he said.
"Why?" we asked.
"Because I just wanted to," he answered.
He climbed onto my lap, and I kissed him, and asked him, "Then why do you smell like oatmeal raisin cookies?"
"I don't know," he said with a straight face. "I was just hiding because I wanted to!"
