Go, Boy Child, go!

Okay, so not only did the boy child spend the entire recess period outside yesterday, he also played outside yesterday afternoon with his sister. The two of them played basketball in the driveway for maybe 30 minutes before dinner. And after dinner, he went for a walk around the neighborhood with DH. All without his jacket on, I might add.

And then this morning, instead of putting his jacket on as usual, he stuck it in his backpack "just in case". When we got to school, he talked very excitedly about going outside at recess and racing his friend again. And then he asked if he could run around the (outdoor) track before school, which is something he used to love to do nearly every day before this fear of the outdoors took hold of him. And so he did!

And he went out for the entire recess today without his jacket. I am amazed!
