I was genuinely surprised that neither Mom nor John had insisted on diapering me for the night. Then again, perhaps they were too tired or maybe they were having another fight with Grandmother. It didn’t matter because I had my GoodNites and those I could pull on and off by myself.

Now, if I thought the disposable diaper had felt thin after wearing those cloth diapers, a GoodNite felt as though I wasn’t wearing hardly anything at all. It felt like one good wetting would do it in.
