His mother returned with a coverlet, turning him on his side and tucking the soft blanket around him before putting his teddy bear in his arms. The thick diaper forced him turn his pelvis so he could slide his upper leg over the other allow his upper knee to rest comfortably on the crib sheet. When she had finished folding the fleecy flannel under his tiny feet to keep him warm while he slept, she kissed him tenderly on the forehead and put up the side rails up on the crib. Thomas watched as his mother picked up the clothes he had been wearing before bedtime and took them to the laundry room.
