The boy in the ice box is sick!

In a previous post, I mentioned that my youngest son has a seriously bad habit of turning his heat OFF at night.  Therefore, when he wakes up in the morning his room is like an ice box.  I also stated that I wouldn’t be really surprised if he ended up sick because of this.  And…guess what?!  He did!!  Today he is home from school because he is sick!  He was up all night coughing so I couldn’t possibly send him to school today with having no sleep.  And because he got no sleep last night, neither did I.  So today I am tired and cranky and he is sick and cranky.  It’s not a good day to be around either one of us.  Hopefully he will have learned his lesson in all this and he will be more agreeable to keeping his heat on in the future.

    How old is your youngest? Daniel is a good name choice by the way!

    You could always get one of those plastic covers with a key to put over it, like they have at businesses and so on. Get him one of those fans with a remote control, and that way if he gets hot, he can adjust the speed of the fan, and if he gets cold in the middle of the night, he can turn it off without having to get out of bed.

    Just a few ideas, let me know if any are helpful.
