It's really cold in Boston today. It was about -9 degrees overnight with windchill and today when we woke up it was a toasty 1 degree Farenheit. Our house is old and was built as a carriage house and has no insulation and very old windows. Not to mention the heat doesn't consistently work at a tolerable temperature. So waking up today was not fun. The kids all took a long time to get out of bed, and when I walked by Sam's room, he asked, "do we have school today?"
"Yes," I said, "school today for everyone."
"Why?! It's so cold out!" he replied. We went back and forth for a few minutes before he told me, "I'm not going to school." I ignored it, not having time to argue in the morning.
Usually the weather is not a huge factor in Sam's life, he'll go outside in anything, so I was a little bit surprised, but then again it's super cold. All I wanted to do was crawl back in bed.
Chris came upstairs to get Lanie dressed and I told him Sam was refusing to go to school.
"I heard," he said. "Something about having to a dancing unit in gym?"
Ahhh....
