David and I were out shopping for furniture today when the kids got home from school. After receiving multiple phone calls from them asking about after school snack, can they eat the brownies, etc. Michael calls and says "It is so hot! Can we swim?" I laugh and look at the thermometer in the car. I try to convince him it is not HOT, it is only 78 degrees. He insists it is hot and he 'sweated just walking from his room to the kitchen.' I suggest they open some windows, that doesn't satisfy them. David says 'just let them swim.' So I agree. We are on our way home and almost home at that. When we get home, they are by the pool, waterfall on, and Michael is holding Christina's towel for her so that as soon as she jumps in she can immediately jump out and into a dry towel. Which she did. Michael jumped in, swam to the other side and back, and immediately wrapped himself in a towel. Amanda insists she is in and that it is not cold (she is wet up to her knees). 10 minutes later Michael is complaining that something must be wrong with his feet because he can't feel them. I wonder why!?!?!? He ended up warming his feet in the tub with some warm water until he could feel them again.
If they thought it was HOT today, at 78 degrees, I wonder what summer will feel like!

hahah---ya, Michael is IN FOR IT if he's hot at 78...just wait for 116!!!
That's to funny! My kids think its hot too. I make them wear long sleeve shirts and pants to school otherwise they would wear shorts and t-shirts. I think they're crazy!
It IS hot! But just wait 'til summer, it gets "Africa" hot here! I know... I hear you... you are gonna love it! :o)
When it has been 50 degrees for a while it does "feel" hot. Just stay a few more years and the swimming at 78 degrees just goes away! I love the comment about not feeling the feet! Oh the enthusiasm of the young!
