I don't know about being a mother but asking that question is also a good way 
to focus the kiddies attention.

Well, you are being picky, but that's ok.  It's fun to figure out the
reasons for the niggling details.

I suspect that you might not be a mother; if you were, you would
understand.  I think if I were a mother with as many children as Molly
Weasley, I'd be happy if I could remember my name every day.  I have two
children, and I'm amazed at what it does to my I.Q. sometimes.  Simple
information you've known for years drops out of the brain when you are
trying to herd children (with luggage) across a crowded public area.  To me,
that absent-mindedness is simply a realistic touch.
