Lizzy hugged her grandmother nervously. She was well aware of her present state.
” hello Lizzy, my how you have grown. ” grandma said. It was at that moment that the smell hit everyone’s nose.
” smells like I have to change someone. ” Sandra spoke up.
” you mean she is actually in diapers? ” grandmother inquired. ” yes mother. I told you all about it on the phone. Lizzy is a baby for the summer. ” ” i thought you were kidding ” ” well i wasn’t ” Grandma stood and looked at her daughter and grand daughter for a moment. She had the feeling of someone trying to grasp a difficult concept and not getting it.
” well, ” she said after moment. ” The guest room is yours. ”
” Thank you Mother ” Sandra responded as she whisked Lizzy inside for a much needed diaper change.
Soon a diaper was changed and Lizzy sat up on the bed. Sandra sat down on the bed and looked at her daughter. ” I want you to stay here for a few minutes. Your grandmother and I need to talk in private. OK. ” ” OK Mother. ” With that Sandra placed a pacifier in Lizzy’s lips and left. Lizzy laid back down and began to think about what the weekend held. She was not sure about anything anymore. She had wanted to be in diapers and be a baby for so long and now some of it was starting to rub her the wrong way. She saw the strange look in Grandmother’s eyes and new that tomorrow she would see the same look in everyone’s eyes. It began to make her feel very uncomfortable. Lizzy started to cry a little at the thought of what was coming. Part of her tears were for sadness and surprising part of them were for joy. She wanted to be a baby and from the looks of it got exactly what she wanted. Lizzy wondered what they were talking about in the other room. Lizzy strained her ears to try and pick up the conversation. But all she could here was mumbles. There voices were not loud enough to pick up and distinct words. It was then she heard her mother plain as day scream. ” I want my daughter to get over the idea of being a baby and if this is the best way to do it I will. ”
Lizzy was shocked. She thought her mother was doing this out of love. Instead she was doing this out of something else all together. Lizzy Lay back in the bed and cried herself to sleep.
A while later Lizzy woke up and looked around her. Her mother was looking at her and smiling. ” Are you OK honey?” Sandra asked. Lizzy wanted so badly to tell her mother off. After all she had just learned that her mother was punishing her with baby treatment not loving her with it. But looking into her mothers eyes at that moment all she could think to say was ” I’m fine. ” ” good everyone is downstairs waiting for you.” ” Everyone? ” Lizzy said apprehensively. ” Yes everyone now lets get you changed and downstairs. ” It was then that Lizzy realized she was soaking wet. Soon she was in dry diapers and her mother was helping her to her feat. ” Mother ” ” yes dear” ” what about pants? ” “Honey its to hot for pant and besides babies often run around in just diapers and a tea shirt and you are a baby for the summer. ”
Lizzy looked at her mother in shock. She actually was gonna let her wear just diapers. Lizzy was not sure about this. She had hoped to hide her baby state a little bit. Now it was gonna be on display for everyone to see. Lizzy slowly left the guestroom and headed down the hall to the main living room. She could hear everyone talking as she approached the room and felt a quiet when she entered into the room. Everyone looked up and saw her enter the room. It seemed like forever with everyone staring at her. But in reality it was only a second. Soon a strong man stood up from his comfy chair and walked over to Lizzy. He reached out and gave her a big bear hug. ” I thought you were gonna sleep the whole weekend away Lizzy. ” ” Not a chance uncle Jack. ” Lizzy answered. That seemed to release the tension in the room. Soon everyone was hugging her and talking about stuff. The fact the she was standing there wearing nothing but a diaper and a tea shirt was not even brought up. Soon everyone settled back down in their chairs and Lizzy looked around the room for a place to sit. ” Over hear ” Her mother called her. Lizzy looked over and was surprised to see a playpen set up. OH course she thought as she walked over and climbed in. The conversations that were happening before Lizzy walked into the room resumed and Lizzy just sat in her playpen and listened. Lizzy would learn later that Grandma with her mothers help had explained to everyone what was going on and that everyone had agreed to keep things as normal as possable. Otherwise Lizzy and Sandra would have left and that would have been sad.
