So, this weekend I called Nicholas a ‘Northman’. Told him I was kind of proud of it as in this regard he is somewhat taking after me. And what does he do to earn this title? He likes to go around in the Michigan winter claiming he doesn’t need his coat. Often, we’ll make him take it with him, but then he never really puts it on, he just drapes the hood over the top of his head and lets the coat hang down his back. Even yesterday, when going to church, it was below 5\u00c2\u00ba, wind chill around -20\u00c2\u00ba, I’m sure sure he would have preferred to leave his coat in the car.<\/p>\n
When I picked him up from karate this evening, it was a balmy 8\u00c2\u00ba. I asked him half jokingly where his coat was, and I was surprised when he actually said he left it inside and we had to go back and get it. I said, “I’m surprised you even have it.”<\/p>\n
To which he responded that he had meant to leave it in the car but he just forgot. And did he put it on as we walked back out? Nope. Said he didn’t need it. I said, “Dude, it’s like 8\u00c2\u00ba.”<\/p>\n
He replied, “Feels more like 30\u00c2\u00ba to me.” As if 30\u00c2\u00ba is some heat wave or something.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
