Before I put him down on the mat, I turned on the bath and felt the temperature. Nice and warm, I thought. Then I looked around a bit and found some of Terri’s bubble bath. She had mentioned that she liked to relax in a hot bath on some evenings. I poured a little in, and Kevin said, “What’s that for?!? I don’t take bubble baths.”
“Easy pal,” I said, “I thought that some bubbles might help you preserve your privacy a bit. Besides, when was the last time you took any kind of a bath?”
“It’s been a while. I guess not since like first grade, after that mom let me take showers.”
“And?”
“I think mom used to give me bubble baths before that,” he conceded with a chuckle.
