Enough has been said about how much Joey adores her little sister. Today, I’m going to tell you all about the other perspective.
It is obvious Baby Jayne idolises her sister.
Like a typical younger sibling, she laughs at everything Joey does or says, and looks at her adoringly with a smile most of the time. She is amused at all her actions (even I am!), and just thinks she’s the coolest girl on planet earth. Before long, I am pretty sure she would follow Joey wherever she goes and wants to have a part in all that Joey does. It’s a good thing, of course. Goes to show she really loves having such a sister. =)
And therefore, Joey’s neighbour cum friend has also become her neighbour cum friend.
Whenever we let Joey go out to the corridor and play with the neighbour, Baby Jayne insists on going out as well. She refused to miss out the fun! And so, since I do not want to keep a watchful eye on them all the time, I sometimes prefer to keep them indoors and they can play together at the grilles. =P
I actually can’t really understand how Baby Jayne feels towards this idolising thing, because I am the eldest kid in my family and I was in the position of being idolised by my little brother. =P I suppose it’s because the elder sibling always appears more knowledgeable, capable, cleverer because we are older and have learnt more stuffs. I remembered I enjoyed being the elder kid even though it meant I had to tutor my little brother sometimes (I hate tutoring!). I especially enjoyed ordering my little brother around and threatening him to listen to me because I AM THE JIE JIE and therefore can cane him if he misbehaves. Ha! I must have been a very tyrannical sister.
Joey has fitted into the shoes of an elder sister very well and she totally loves ordering her sister around, telling her off whenever she tries to touch Daddy & Mummy’s stuffs, or picks up unknown objects from the floor and attempts to eat them. She keeps her eyes on Baby Jayne most of the time, keeping her in check.
I am sure Baby Jayne enjoys all the ‘guidance’ as well. :)
