You were more direct than I was. I never let the Sids get their hands on my stuff, but I used diplomatic deflection tactics at first.
I hope I planted a seed. This whole family seems pretty clueless--my parents said they got a few gems from her parents, too. I'm wondering if maybe the Clue Fairy is going to have to call in her big hulking sister, the Make It Blatantly Obvious With Puppets, Diagrams, And Short, Simple Words Fairy for these folks. Because after she gushed about Kit (her favorite) and Molly and even Josefina and her own blonde blue-eyed JLY, those particular adjectives seem even more harsh, and if you can't see that you've got serious problems. I wish those problems cropped up less often ...
