When he put me back on my feet I rubbed the tears away using the back of my arm. He put a single finger under my chin and made me look up at him as he said, “You can have as many of those as you want,” meaning the hugs.
I won’t lie, the first time having Daddy Phil change my wet diaper felt kind of weird but he was just as skilled at it as Mommy Beth and in no time I was changed and fully dressed. He had picked out a pair of blue jeans and a bright blue onsie with red around the collar and both the wrist and leg cuffs with a matching fake underwear band. Over that he pulled a blue sweatshirt over my head so fast that I hadn’t had time to raise my arms.
