“All done?” Judy began as she looked down at Dante’s uncomfortable expression. “Ooooh! I know what you need.” She picked him up, and draped him over her shoulder. She began to bounce him lightly as she patted his back firmly. A few seconds later, a mighty belch thundered out of him.
“Good baby!” Judy praised Dante, “now one more”. Dante complied. Hangover officially gone. “Ok, aaaall done. Let’s go to the nursery,” Judy announced as she effortlessly shifted Dante so that she could carry him on her hip. Frankly, if it weren’t for the ease in which she was doing it, the whole thing would have looked awkward. It definitely looked a little ludicrous. Dante was pretty sure that if he had been standing up, he’d be taller than woman who was carrying him.
