The girls had quite a few friends at the shower and enjoyed their time eating and playing with their friends. I enjoyed getting to talk to several friends as well.
On the way home from the shower, I told the girls I was proud of how well they behaved while we were at the shower. Lauren proceeded to tell me that Allison had pushed her while they were playing, making her bump into her friend Melanie.
This was our conversation:
Me: Allison if you can't use nice touches with your sister, you will not be allowed to touch her.
Allison: Not ever touch her?
Me: Only if you can use nice touches.
Allison: Can I hug her?
Me: Not if you choose to push, or pinch, or use your hands to hurt.
Allison: Well if I can't touch her, I'll leave this family. I'll go to Arkansas.
Lauren: You can't drive, you're not old enough. You can't walk, it's too far and you would get too tired. You could run, that's in between walking and riding a bike. But you'd still be too tired.
Allison: I'll fly.
Lauren: You don't have any money.
Allison: I have money in my piggy bank.
Lauren: You need dollars, you just have cents.
Allison: I'll go live with Uncle Bill. He doesn't have anybody to live with him.
Me: You could just make sure you only use your hands for nice touching and you wouldn't have to leave the family. I would really miss you if you left our family.
Allison: (in her most saddest voice) I won't leave Knoxville, I'll just live with Uncle Bill.
At that point I had to stop and get milk. When I got back in the car, the conversation was over. Be ware, Uncle Bill, you may have a room mate some day!
