The Colorful Twins

By Sophia Sanderlin

There once was a set of twins named Joy and Joanne. Joy loved pink and Joanne liked blue. They would fight about everything! On their birthday, they fought about what color cake frosting to have, so they decided to do half pink and half blue. Joy’s room was all pink from the pink wallpaper to the fluffy, pink rug. Joanne had a blue room from the blue wallpaper to the fluffy, blue rug. However, once their brother, Johnny was born, they had to share a room! Uh oh! Now what?

They decided to paint their shared room half blue and half pink. Uh oh! The paint got mixed in the process! Now it was purple! And… they both LOVED it! Suddenly, they stopped fighting! On their next birthday, they had purple cake, purple balloons, and purple decorations; EVERYTHING was purple! The twins even wore purple from head to toe! However, their brother liked red! Uh oh! Now they fought over which color was best AGAIN!

Then they remembered how they really didn’t like to fight. They decided to stop. The twins decided to start liking red, and Johnny decided to start liking purple. On the twins’ next birthday, they decided to have red AND purple balloons, red AND purple decorations, and purple cake with red frosting! It was a great party! They had a great time with their friends, Cori, Joey, and Judy!
