Cute thinking, well, kind of...

L: Mum, are you close to dying?
M: No, I don't think so, why?
L: Because you are so much bigger than us, I thought you might be close to dying.
M: I don't really know how long I'll live, but I really hope I'm here lots more years.
L: Why?...oh, because you need to be here to take care of us when we're little!

Yes Laura, unfortunately the game you like to play with me: "I'm-17-living-by-myself-with-my-sister-and-taking-care-of-myself-without-my-mum-but-that's-okay-because-I'm-old-enough-to" is not yet real life...

Gotta love her spunk.
