Nothing Like Weeping In the Night to Get My Attention
I guess kids are the same everywhere, mine all went through that stage. My son is 17 now and does up his coat, and wears snow pants when snowboarding but went a whole winter refusing to wear a coat, just a heavy sweatshirt - brings back memories (my 10 year old daughter now tries to go to school in her thin running shoes but can be convinced to wear her boots because their pink and kind of funky, thank goodness)
@Cindy: Ooooooh, 60! I would love to see 60 again. :) That would mean I could be out playing in the flowers!
@Robert: thanks! I was walking backwards snapping away and it was so cool to see I caught that little smile.
@Jan: I often insist that coats and hats be carried along with us when we're out and about. I've had people ask rather pointed questions about how the boys were dressed for various weather situations. For the most part I let them make their own choices. Today however, they had to bundle up. Did I mention it was cold???!?
We also had record breaking snow recently, in fact I've been totally snowed in for 2 weeks. We don't usually get much snow and this is the worst I've seen since living here (West. Wa) for 21 years. Today was my first venture out and the roads were terrible.
Makes me really appreciate you folks where winters and long and harsh.
