Missing: The Brain of My Child

You know the saying you would lose your head if it wasn't attached? Well, Drew would lose his brain if it wasn't encapsulated in his skull. I love my child dearly but his thinking leaves me pondering a bit.
I have to preface this story with this- Drew is THE hottest natured person I know and HATES to wear clothes- even when it is 32 degrees outside. His clothes come off immediatley as soon as he gets home and the rest of the evening is spent with him running around in his underwear.
 Today, with the snow, he wanted to go outside so I tell him to go get some clothes on. He goes upstairs and comes back in shorts, a tee shirt, crocs and a tobogan (I have to admit, this was a sight).  I asked him if he had lost his mind and did he really think I was going to let him wear that outside? So, he went back upstairs put on jeans, a tee shirt and his crocs. At least now we have the legs covered right? I send him upstairs yet again and tell him to get warmer clothes. Ok, so now we have on jeans, a long sleeve tee shirt, tobogan and oh you can't forget the crocs which now he has on with socks! Finally, we got it right on the fourth try after much frustration on his part because as he said "I just don't understand why you are being so unreasonable in not letting me go the way I am dressed!"
