Hi, I'm Nyx. I'm going to tell you all about my 1st foster home. Authur and Daniel let me stay with them for a while. I was 7 years old. It was about 9 years ago, so I don't remember much but I do remember my first day of school. I joined mid- term and they asked me to share a bit about myself in front of the whole class. It was a Year 3 class, so the questions were simple. Your name, your age, what your favourite colour was, hobbies etc. but then the teacher asked me...What do your parents do? and although I was young, I knew that I had no parents, so I said I dont know. The teacher asked, what do they dress like when they go to work? I said I don't know. I ran off into the bathrooms and I cried.. I know right? You would have thought the teacher knew about my history, but evidently she forgot or she was doing it on purpous. Then my teacher knocked on the door and said to get out and she would take me to the head teacher. I went and all I remember was the teacher and the head teacher talking a lot, then the teacher said sorry to me and let me have a buiscuit from her tin. That was one memory. Another was, I was in my bedroom and Daniel and Authur were in the kitchen, they were in there for a long time, when I came to see what they were doing they said to me "Nyxie, go back to your room" so I went. Later, my social worker told me that Daniel was really ill and I would have to go back to the orphanage while they found somewhere else for me to stay. I wasn't allowed to hug Daniel goodbye, I just made her a card and hoped she wouldn't throw it away. I never heard about her again. Thank you. Nyx
