Oh, I see what you mean. When you put it like that, I can see it as being a phrase of endearment. Like she's so nice, you want to adopt her. But you don't really, it's just that she's so nice you would if you were in a situation approrpriate to do so. I'm starting to confuse myself, and probably misinform somebody else, so I'm going to just edge away from this explanation.
By the way, your turn to post a story contribution.
