They were walking up the front steps of the house getting closer to the white door. The emotions noticed that each window had a box of white roses attached to it. Inside the house Mr. and Mrs. Alexandria kicked off their shoes and put them on the shoe rack in the foyer. Gretchen's mom with Gretchen in her arms went to Gretchen's new room. The walls and Gretchen's room were pink. on the ceiling there were glow-in-the-dark stars, sons, moons, comets , and hearts. Gretchen was spelled above her crib in huge Red letters. On the nightstand set a disco night light. When turned on it spun around and produced various Hughes of Color such as red, Blue, green, orange, yellow, and pink. The crib and Gretchen's room was white. Inside of it there were various blankets, pillows, and stuffed animals.
"Steve I can't find her pajamas "Mrs. Alexandria yelled to her husband! "I'm coming Kim"Mr. Alexandria yell back. Mr. Alexandria rushed into the room, opened the bottom drawer of Gretchens white dresser, produced a pair of pajamas with ice cream cones all over them, and handed them to Mrs. Alexandria. Mrs. Alexandria quickly placed Gretchen on her matching white changing table, Changed her out of the outfit that she had been in before, changed her diaper, and read dressed her in the ice cream cone Footy pajamas. "There now all nice and snug "Kim said to her daughter in a soothing voice. Mrs. Alexandria placed Gretchen into her crib and tucked her in.

The room mainly had one color purple. Purple bed, purple blanket, purple sheets, purple pillows, purple curtains, purple walls. There was even a purple trunk at the end of his bed. Fear opened the trunk to find that it was Full of paper bags. "Ha you're sure going to need A lot of those "curiosity snickered. Again the only thing in the room that wasn't purple was A dark brown wooden desk on the far wall by the closet. It had a drawer that was locked. Fear picked up the key on his desk. He figured that The key would unlock the drawer It did. he pulled out the only thing that was in the drawer. It was a purple diary that said Fear in black letters. "You got a diary to? "Curiosity was amazed. "I think we all got diaries "sadness added. "I opened my drawer up last night and I got a dark blue diary that said sadness in light blue letters.""Me too only mine was golden and it said Joy in green letters. " The emotions were surprised. What did it mean? "Oh well whatever it means we have all the time in the world to figure it out let's not lose sleep over it. ""Agreed "they all said. So they all went to bed and had a restful sleep.
