“Oh Joey what have you been eating?” His mom teased him.
Joey giggled and said, “Skunk berries!”
Mom guided me down onto the mat while I pulled the front of my shirt up over my mouth and nose to breathe.
When Mom pulled open the front of my diaper Beth made the comment, “Looks like he might be getting a bit of a rash. You should try this.” She then handed what looked to be a tube of toothpaste to my mom. “It will clear up even a bad diaper rash overnight.”
For half a second Joey and I made eye contact. He was grinning ear-to-ear while his mom was cleaning his poop covered, butt.
My own mom seemed to be taking forever to get me into a dry diaper and every second that passed I felt myself growing redder and redder.
And then I felt someone thump my chest. I looked to see that it was Joey.
He was still grinning and asked me, “Why are you so red?”
His mother hushed him for which I was ever so grateful!
