And Repeat...

The format of all conversations with my toddler:

where's daddy?
he's working
where's daddy?
he's working
where's daddy?
where did i tell you he is?
working
that's right
oh, ok.
pause
where's daddy?


What is with the repitition??? And, how do I make it stop? Seriously, I'm looking for suggestions; this is driving me crazy!
