Red and yellow and pink and green...

Rainbows are very popular here with Master 7 and Miss 3. They have however been debating the colour recently.

Master 7 has always liked his pencils etc to be lined up in rainbow order. For some time he believed that the order was like a list of favourite colours. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Everything from cars and pencils to bottletops and socks had to be placed in this order.

Miss 3 is less precise, and more of a 'stirrer'. She prefers: 'red and yellow and pink and green, purple and orange and blue... you can sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow, sing a rainbow too...'

For anyone who is familiar with Asperger's Syndrome, you will know that this does not auger well for happy family discusssions!

In other news, today is the last day of term 3, so hopefully lots of photos to come, as we unpack the boxes and create our new home!

Hope you settle in quickly and enjoy your new home.

In the interests of family harmony I think I will avoid all talk of rainbows with my boys!!

Your family conversations are so interesting! I just spent a good hour talking to mine about who's tummy was bigger...
