ROSE'S FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL

Rose's "best" painting
Dear blog, 

Today was Rose's first day at school. She used the 'horrible school wax crayons' to draw a picture of the Banana House. She thinks it is the "best" ever.


Rose then drew Eve sitting on the roof of the shed, waving. She drew all of us waving out of the window. Waving to Bill. Rose is so cute sometimes.


According to Rose, she took all day to complete her art, including two playtimes, storytime and most of lunch. Unfortunately, it was 'stolen' from her by the teacher, who pretended to be interested in it, and she pinned it high on the wall.


Indigo was waiting for Rose at the school gate, and was trying to comfort her. Rose was annoying Indigo. Out of anger, she said that she hated everyone at school, and that she would 'kill' them when she was big enough. She kept insisting that the art work was her best ever, and she did not want to go home. Not until Indigo gave in and decided to help her 'pinch' it off the wall. I guess he felt sad seeing Rose behave that way. It was just her first day at school.


After they took down the picture and brought it home, Indigo realised that if the teacher will notice that Rose picture was missing, and would ask her. Indigo then came up with and idea of copying the picture. I did not want to help her. How could I do that? She would never get away with copying the picture! The teachers are smart enough to realise that's it is a fake. Caddy then helped Rose to copy her painting. Honestly, it was quite good. She even made four holes at the corner of the picture to make it look more realistic.


Got to go now,


Saffy :)

WHY WASN'T MY NAME ON THE COLOUR CHART?

Dear blog,

This is my first time posting on this blog that Sarah helped me create. :)
There is a colour chart pinned up on the kitchen wall. Mummy Eve and Daddy Bill pinned it up. It has been there since I was eight. To me, they are as familiar to me as nursery rhymes and I always fall asleep to the list of colours. Everytime I look at it I can see Indigo, Rose and Caddy's "colours" almost immediately - But not mine.

Our Family's colour chart. Oh where oh where is my name?


By the way, Indigo is my adventurous little brother, Rose is my new baby sister and Caddy, my neat and organised older sister.
Even if I looked over and over again, I cannot find my name on that chart! When I asked my family to help me find it, Caddy was busy painting her hamster's feet, Rose kept screaming. At least Indigo tried to help me, saying that "Saffron's a Yellow ". A health visitor came to our house and kept asking Mum how she keeps her patience. It made me quite annoyed. Everyone was ignoring me even though I kept asking them to help me find my name on the colour chart.
I do not know why but when the health visitor asked if I knew about "it", the whole house became quiet. When I questioned Mum and the health visitor, they just said it was nothing. But I am still quite suspicious.

Rose kept sucking on this paint which was apparently Caddy's Yellow Ochre non-toxic paint. At least when the health visitor left, Mum gave Rose a crust of bread and she became quiet again, fortunately.

I asked Mum why my name was not on the chart before bedtime, but she just said that Saffron was a lovely colour and told her that her late sister had named Saffron.

That night, I kept having dreams of sunny place which was quiet and enclosed. There were little pointed trees and I could hear the sound of water. Caddy did not remember it, but she did say it was not her, it was me. This to me is terribly confusing. I mean, why is my name not on the colour chart when all my other siblings are. And why was I the only one whose name was chosen by Mum's sister? This is very strange. I got to go, will post more later.
