In response to Alfee's overwhelming love and over reliance on Sophie... I had a talk with him...
Me: ... u know we all hve 'alone' and 'together' things to do...
Alfee: ... but I dun wan to do 'alone' things... I want Jie Jie to play with me...
Me: ... Sophie wants to read by herself... She wants to do 'alone' things now... wat u can do is to play quietly beside her while she reads... so tt u can b together, doing 'alone' things together.
Alfee: ... (sulking but went ahead and sat by himself to play with his toys)

So happy n proud I had resolved the problem... but moments later. ..
Me:... okay, come... let's eat breakfast... let's do 'together' things...
Sophie:... (no response)
Alfee: ... (continued playing) I want to my own 'alone' things...
Papa: ... (reading newspaper)
Me: ... (KNN) U all r using my words agst me...

What a beautiful start to my day!
