Colder Temperatures Again

This morning I checked the forecast and it was going to be colder today so I started a fire in the wood stove. Cooter has a problem, maybe he was hit by a car, or maybe just a stiff neck, but he can't move very well. There are no signs of injuries, but something has happened. He has been this way a couple of days. When we let him inside, he can't hardly lay down or raise or lower his head. After letting him inside this morning, Trevon asked me for a cookie and I told him to wait till he ate breakfast. I started fixing french toast, and I rang the bell when it was ready. I scrambled the rest of the eggs and gave each person a little bit of eggs. Stacey, Trevon and I ate at the counter, while Linda took her plate to the other room. Trevon said he didn't like eggs, but I told him they were good with a little syrup that was left over from the french toast. Hmm, he tried them and when I reminded him he could have a cookie after he finished the eggs, he gobbled them down. I gave him a glass of milk to 'dunk' his two cookies in and he was in 'cookie heaven'. I then sent him and Stacey to brush their teeth after finishing breakfast and I said they could play when they finished brushing. They had Hot Wheel cars and Legos, and we could hear them scratching and rustling through those for several hours while they were watching Disney movies. Lunch was hamburgers and french fries that Linda fixed. It was about the same, I had to make deals to get Trevon to finish his meal, but he did. We've noticed Trevon is asking for white milk with his meals and saving pink milk for snacks. Maybe because I said we might run out of pink milk??
 
Later in the evening, since Stacey and Linda had been reading books to Trevon, he decided to set by the stove and 'read' a book to Missy.
He can't really read yet, but the story sounded good to Missy as Trevon was getting warmed up after his evening bath.
