When he was all cleaned up, I rinsed off his shorts, tossed the boxers and got him dressed again. I cleaned up the counter a bit and put the damp shorts in the waterproof section of my bag so that they could be washed when we got home. Having a diaper bag paid off yet again.
I said to Kevin, “you ready to go?”
He just nodded again.
“Okay, let’s get our stuff and get going.”
The cashier, Agnes was waiting by the door and said, “I’ll help you bring your stuff to your car. You just take care of Kevin.”
“Thanks,” I said to Agnes. Then to Kevin, “You want to ride?”
He just looked at me, so I scooped him up and carried him on my hip out to the car. He cuddled the puppy the whole way.
After I thanked Agnes for being so helpful, she said, “Don’t worry sweetheart. I’ve had little boys with messy pants myself.”
Then she said to Kevin, “Don’t feel too bad about this, accidents happen. You’ll see, you’ll out grow this by the time you start big kid school.”
I smiled at her, put Kevin in the car, our stuff in the trunk and then headed off to the doctor.
