April: What do you mean I'll be staying with Gord an' Tracey? Elly: Honey, Dad and I will only be gone for a few days!! April: Why can't I stay home Elly: Because you'd be alone all day. April: What about the pets? Elly: Grandpa's taking Dixie, Eddy's going to Connie's house and Butterscotch will be going in her cage with you. April: So, you've worked it all out. Nobody asks me what I want. I just go where I'm told! Elly: April, what would you be doing if we weren't going away? April: I'd probably be over at Gord an' Tracey's house.

It’s then one occasion that you agree as she is teen and those immediate agreements will go rare and rarer!
