Running away from home, pre-schooler style

Thumper, unhappy that we have restricted her access to jelly, stormed off down the hallway, announcing: “I’m going to live at a different house! I'm not going to live with you ever again because you're not going to let me have my jelly now” 

Me: Do you want me to help you pack a bag of clothes to take?

Thumper: Yes. 

Me: And where are you going to live? 

Thumper: I’m going to live at Cuz1’s house forever

Me: Are you going to take some clothes with you?

Thumper: Yes! 

She goes back to her bedroom then returns with a small backpack containing one pair of pants, one pair of socks, sandals and bunny pyjamas. 

Me: what about some undies? 

Thumper: Oh yes! 

Back to her bedroom again, returning with two pairs of undies for her bag. 

Thumper: Now I'm ready to go! ...Mum can you please drive me?
