The next morning was very cold. Benny did not want to get up at all. No, he said, it is so cold that I'm not going to get out of bed. Henry looked out at the ocean. I have an idea, he said. It's too cold outside today. Let's all stay inside and paint our birds. Fine! agreed Jessie. I'll light the stove and we'll shut the barn door. It will soon be warm.
The following morning, Benny was reluctant to leave his warm bed due to the harsh cold. He expressed his desire to stay under the covers, feeling that the chilly weather was a good excuse to avoid getting up. Meanwhile, Henry, looking out at the ocean, came up with a plan to make the best of the cold day by suggesting they all stay inside.
Jessie was on board with the idea and proposed that they use the time to paint pictures of their birds. She offered to light the stove, which would help warm the barn, and suggested closing the barn door to keep the warmth in. With their plans set, they looked forward to a cozy day of creativity despite the frigid temperatures outside.
