"This is a mattress, not a bed!" I son put forward his final statement of his arguement on why he should sleep with us and not by himself.
We tried to coerce him into sleeping by his own, not far from us, the mattress next to us, in the same room. I told him he could sleep with his animal. Mei mei, Isaiah (his friend, our neighbour) are sleeping by themselves.
Of course, he tried to say no. Finally, he explained it away as they have beds but his is only a mattress. Mattress is not meant to be slept on but to jump on. Hence, he will sleep on Pa Pa Ma Ma's bed.
Anyway, we broke off laughing when he argued with that.

Thank God for an intelligent son.
