An alternative to running away from home...

Just have your mom give you away. Last night as I was putting little d to bed she said "Mom if I am the bad sister, why don't you just give me away?" (Can you tell she had been in trouble alot that day?)

Me: I don't want to give you away.
d: But you could just drop me off at Knee's house. (her Godmother and my BFF)
Me: But my heart would break if you moved to Knee's house.
d: Mom, don't worry, she could handle me.

I kid you not this is what she said. And then today when we discussed it further...

Me: I would miss you so much if you lived with Knee.
d: Mom I could still call you and email you and send you pictures. And you could come visit any time you wanted to.

Apparently she has this all figured out. Now to break the news to Knee.
