    "Bill" BY CODY MATTHEW JAMES III 2/8/05
    Chapter 7 THE MEETING WITH MR. JORDAN

    I woke up when I heard the water splash from the pool area outside my
    bedroom window. I looked at the clock, and it was six-thirty in the
    morning. I rubbed my eyes as I got out of bed, and went to the window
    to see who was in the pool. When I saw it was Bill, I just stood there
    and watched him do his swimming laps . When he finally stopped in the
    shallow end, I said, "Hi Bill"

    "He looked toward my window and said, "Hi Scotty, going to be an
    exciting day for you."

    "I know. What time are we going, Bill?"

    "About eight, so go get some breakfast, and I'll see you then."

    I waved at him, and then I waddled out of my bedroom and into the
    living room.

    "Where are you, mom?"

    "In the kitchen, baby. What are you doing up so early?"

    "I just woke up, that's all." I told her as I waddled into the kitchen.

    She looked at me and started giggling.

    "Is that one of the diapers that Bill gave you, baby?"

    "Yeah, it's a heavy nighttime diaper."

    "You look so cute and adorable in it Scotty. Is it any better then the
    old cloth diapers we use to put on you?"

    "I don't know. I can't tell if I'm wet or dry."

    "Knowing you baby, your wet but you just can't feel it." my mommy said.

    "What time is Cathy coming over?"

    "About seven sweetheart. She said she would give you a bath, and get
    you dressed by eight."

    "What's for breakfast?"

    "Eggs bacon, and toast, okay?"

    "Yeah" I said, then I got the dishes and silverware out and put them on
    the table.

    My mom made breakfast as I watched cartoons on TV.

    "Breakfast is on the table Scotty."

    I waddled as fast as I could to the table. As I dug into the eggs, my
    mom said,

    "Remember yesterday Scotty, when I told you we needed to talk?"

    "Yeah, what's it about?" I asked as I put my spoon down.

    "Oh Scotty, it doesn't have anything to do with you, I mean, you're not
    in any trouble baby, it's about Bill."

    "What about him, is he sick or something?"

    "No baby, remember the first day we met him?"

    "Yeah, so?" I said.

    "Well, Bill and I have been seeing each other, I mean, we been kind of
    dating."

    "You and Bill?"

    "Yes, I think I liked him the first moment I met him."

    "Are you gonna marry Bill?"

    "Not for awhile baby, I just wanted to be sure it was alright by you,
    that I date Bill for awhile."

    "Sure, I like Bill a lot."

    "I think he likes you too Scotty, by the gleam in his eyes."

    "Why hasn't Bill ever got married?"

    "That's a long story Scotty. I tell it to you sometime, but you don't
    mind if I see Bill, I mean date him?"

    "Go for it mommy."

    She hugged me and then kissed me on the cheek, then we talked about the
    commercials I was going to be making for Jordan Enterprises.

    There was a knock at the door and before I got there, Cathy let herself
    in.

    "Good morning Scotty. How was your eggs and toast this morning?"

    "How did you know I had toast and eggs for breakfast Cathy?"

    "The bread crumbs on your tummy, and the catsup on your face."

    "I could have had a hamburger and fries for breakfast."

    "With your mom cooking, yeah, right. Ready for your bath Scotty?"

    "Ah mom, do I gotta take a bath?" I said jokingly.

    "Yes you gotta take a bath baby." she answered.

    "Now that your question was answered Scotty, march." Cathy said.

    When we got to the bathroom, Cathy took my plastic pants and diaper off
    of me, and sat me down on the potty seat, and then she started filling
    the bathtub with water and a little bubble bath.

    As I sat there on the potty seat, my mom came in to get her makeup, and
    she said to Cathy, "Thanks for the potty seat Cathy, It was getting to
    be a hassle going to the bathroom to pull Scotty's little tush out of
    the toilet all the time."

    "It was an extra potty seat Ricky had, and never used." Cathy said.

    "Make sure you scrub him good, I want him to be clean for the meeting
    with Mr. Jordan this morning, and put that aqua bike short on him.
    He'll look really cute and adorable." my mom told Cathy.

    "I don't want to look cute…..adorable, I don't mind." I told them.

    "Time for your bath cutie." Cathy said with a smirk on her face.

    She lifted me off the potty seat, and then sat me in the tub. She
    washed my hair twice before she started washing my back, then the front
    of me. After she was done, I stood up. Cathy noticed a red rash on my
    rear, and said, "Looks like we need to use the Desitin ointment on your
    cute little tush Scotty."

    Cathy helped me out of the tub, and dried me off before she carried me
    back to my room. She placed the changing pad down on my bed, and I
    climbed up onto it. She put on a disposable glove on her hand, and as I
    held my legs and rear up, she spread the Desitin ointment all over my
    rear, crotch, and penis. She went to my closet and took out some
    printed sports diapers out of the box, and then asked me, "What print
    do you want to wear Scotty?" she asked as she held up five printed
    diapers.

    "The baseball print," I told her.

    She opened the diaper up, slipped it under me and then pulled it up
    between my legs and fastened the back to the front of the diaper. I
    stood up on the bed and looked at myself in the mirror that was mounted
    on my dresser.

    "This looks like a bikini diaper, and it feels like one too."

    "They are made that way for kids who need to wear a diaper when they
    are playing sports Scotty. That's why they have one tape on each side,
    so if you need to use the bathroom, you can open it and refasten it."

    "They feel just like my racer swimsuit too, I like them." I said as I
    looked at the prints of baseballs, gloves, bats, and baseball players
    printed all over the plastic cover on the front and rear of the diaper.

    "Where are your aqua bike shorts Scotty?"

    "In the first drawer at the bottom."

    "Why don't you have them with your other play shorts?"

    "You'll see Cathy."

    She took out the bike shorts and held them up to me, and said, " Oh,
    how cute."

    They had a zebra on one leg, a camel on the other leg, and over the
    front of the shorts was a lion, right over where my penis would be
    shortly.

    "Cathy, my mom bought those for me when I was seven years old an I
    wanted to go to the zoo all the time, when we could afford it."

    Cathy held my bike shorts down as I stepped into them, and then she
    pulled it up.

    "Can I wear my yellow pocket tee shirt Cathy?"

    "Sure Scotty, I'll look good on you."

    She went and got out the tee shirt from my dresser, and slipped it over
    my arms and head, and then pulled it down.

    I sat down on the bed so she could put my socks and shoes on me. When
    she was done, I went into the living room to watch cartoons. Cathy
    followed me in, sat down on the couch beside me and brushed my hair.

    "Cathy, you better get a few extra diapers for Scotty in case we need
    to change him while we are out." my mom said.

    I followed Cathy back into my bedroom, and after she got a few diapers
    and left my room, I took out the cardboard box Bill had written in. I
    took out my black marker and wrote my answer to his question in the
    bottom of the box. As I finished writing, there was a knock at the
    front door. I heard Cathy invite Bill in, and tell him I was ready, and
    that my mom was a little late getting dressed. I closed the top of the
    box and set it by my bed before running out to the living room.

    I asked Bill all kinds of questions about what we were going to be
    doing today when my mom came out into the living room. She gave Bill a
    little kiss on his lips, and my jaw dropped. It was the first time I
    ever saw my mom kiss anyone other then me.

    "Everyone ready to go?" Bill asked us.

    We went to the carport, and in Bill's parking spot, was an S.U.V. Bill
    slid open the side door, and as I got in, I saw the car seat. I climbed
    into it, and Cathy sat down beside me, pulled the harness over my head
    and shoulders and buckled it to the buckle between my legs. She
    adjusted the shoulder straps then buckled them together across my
    chest. After every one had their seat belts on, we took off for the
    factory.

    "How long does it take to get there, Bill?" I asked him.

    "About forty minutes Scotty, so sit back and relax."

    I looked out the window while my mom and Bill talked softly.

    Bill finally pulled into a large parking lot that was almost filled up
    with other cars and trucks, and parked the S.U.V. Cathy unfastened my
    car seat harness and helped me out of the S.U.V. Bill locked it up,
    then walked us over to huge building that had a large sign on it that
    read Jordan Enterprises on the front. We went in the front door, and
    Bill led us down the hallway to an office. The lady that was there,
    knew Bill, and told him to go right in. We waited out in the waiting
    room until Bill came back out with an older man.

    "Scotty, Mrs. McCormick, and Miss Heather, I'd like you to meet Mr.
    Jordan."

    We all shook hands with him.

    "Scotty, I hear you're going to be our spokes person in our
    advertisements?"

    I shook my head yes.

    "How would you like to see our factory Scotty, where we make over forty
    products?"

    "Sure." I told him.

    "How old are you, Scotty?"

    "Ten, almost eleven."

    "When is your birthday?"

    "In two weeks."

    "Mrs. McCormick, is it okay if I talk to Scotty in my office privately
    for a few minutes?"

    "Sure, if it's okay with Scotty." my mom answered.

    I shook my head yes, then Mr. Jordan walked me into his office, and
    left the door open. We talked about everything from what foods I liked
    to the sports I liked to play. When he asked me if I liked the beach, I
    told him I really liked to go to the beach, but didn't know to swim too
    good.

    We talked for over fifteen minutes before he took all of us on a tour
    of the factory. I got to see how they cut and sew all the material that
    make up their diapers, shirts and everything else. With all the
    machines running, it was noisy in the factory. I got to look at the
    machines up close, but Bill made me put my hands in the waistband of my
    bike shorts so I wouldn't try to touch anything. It was neat seeing how
    those machines worked.

    When lunchtime came, we got to eat in the employees' cafeteria, and
    after we were done, we went back to Mr. Jordan's office. My mom, Cathy,
    and I waited outside for Bill to finish talking to Mr. Jordan, which
    took about twenty minutes. When Bill came out of Mr. Jordan's office,
    he held his two thumbs up, meaning it was now my decision whether or
    not I was going to make commercials for Jordan Enterprises.

    On the way home, I told Bill, Cathy, and my mom, I would tell them my
    answer after we got home. The ride home felt shorter this time, as I
    looked out the window. The car seat I was strapped into in the S.U.V.
    felt so much better then the car seat in Cathy's car, and I asked Bill
    where he got it, and he told me he got it from Jordan Enterprises.

    When we got home, Cathy unbuckled my car seat harness for me, and then
    Cathy and me raced to the apartment, and I beat Cathy, but barely. She
    unlocked the front door, and I ran to my bedroom to get the cardboard
    box Bill had written his question in, and I carried it out to the
    living room.

    As Bill and my mom came into the apartment, Bill asked, "Have you
    decided if you are going to work for Jordan Enterprises Scotty?"

    "I want you to open this present, Bill." I said as I held out the
    cardboard box.

    Bill looked at the box I was holding up to him, took it, and went over
    to the couch and sat down. When Bill opened the box, he read what I had
    written in the bottom of the box, Bill held his arms out to me, and I
    walked over to him, and we hugged each other. My mom had a puzzled look
    on her until she read Bill's question to me: 'Please' signed Bill, and
    my answer 'Okay' signed Scotty. She bent down and hugged Bill and me at
    the same time.

    After the hug, I went over to Cathy and whispered in her ear, "I need
    to be changed."

    "I'm going to take Scotty and get him changed. We'll be back in a few
    minutes," Cathy said.

    "Why don't you put a swimsuit on him Cathy, then we can all take a
    swim." Bill said.

    "Good idea, Bill." my mom added.

    Bill gave my mom a kiss on my mom 's cheek before he headed up to his
    apartment to get changed.

    On the way to my room, Cathy got my swim diaper from the bathroom and
    took me to my room to change me.

    "Cathy, why don't you go and get your suit on, and I'll get the little
    rascal dressed," my mom said as she entered my room.

    "Sure thing Jeanne," Cathy said as she went to get dressed.

    I climbed up on the bed and laid back as my mom sat down beside me.

    "Remember when I got the shorts for you Scotty?" my mom asked as she
    pulled my aqua bike shorts down, and off of me.

    "Yeah, it was when I was seven years old."

    "It was when you were six years old baby. I was on my lunch break from
    work, and as I walked down the street, I noticed a clothing store that
    was going out of business, so I thought I would just take a look inside
    and see what they had left. I saw the shorts lying on top of a pile of
    other clothes, and the saleslady told me that the shorts were only
    three dollars. When I looked into my purse, I had five dollars, and
    twenty-five cents. When the lady saw how much money I had, she said,
    "For you, they are only twenty five cents, and a promise."

    "What was the promise mommy?"

    "The saleslady said to me: You promise me that you take your son to the
    zoo, and show him all the different animals there. I bought the shorts,
    and the next day, I played hooky from work, and you played hooky from
    school, and we spent the entire day at the zoo."

    "Mommy, that's why you like those bike shorts so much?"

    "Yes baby, and boy did I get in a lot of trouble from Mrs. Wright, your
    teacher, for keeping you out of school that day, or so I thought."

    "What did she say?"

    "Mrs. Wright wanted to know why you were absent from school that day.
    She said a doctors appointment was okay, or if you were sick, that was
    okay too, but when I told her: I took my son to the zoo, she gave me a
    stern look, and said, 'Teaching your son about the different animals
    was acceptable too."

    I sat up and hugged my mommy.

    "That was a beautiful story Jeanne." Cathy said from my doorway, then
    added, "I can get Scotty dressed now. Why don't you go and get your
    suit on."

    "Maybe my shorts" my mom said to Cathy as she left my room.

    "Scotty, did you poop in your diaper?"

    "Yeah, I was nervous when Mr. Jordan asked me to go into his office
    with him."

    Cathy unfastened my sport diaper, then went over to my dresser and got
    the baby wipes. She cleaned my rear, then threw the wipes and diaper in
    the trash can. She slipped my swim diaper under me, pulled the front up
    between my legs, and fastened the Velcro tapes to the front of the swim
    diaper, then pulled the belt through the loop and fastened it.

    "I thought we were going swimming?" Bill's voice bellowed from outside
    my bedroom window.

    "I was just telling Cathy a little story Bill, be right out." I said

    "You little liar Scotty, liar liar swimsuits on Fire." Cathy said
    before we started laughing.

    I climbed down off the bed, and then Cathy and I went out to the pool
    area. When we got there, Bill was showing my mom how to operate the
    digital camera he brought down with him from his apartment.

    Cathy dove into the pool, but I got in the shallow end using the steps
    while my mom took pictures me.

    "Cathy, want to play some catch, WITH SCOTTY?" Bill asked as he got
    into the pool

    "Sure Bill, my throwing arm needs the exercise." Cathy answered.

    "You have to catch me first." I told them.

    That was a very bad choice of words I soon found out as I went airborne
    over to Cathy.

    "Great picture baby." my mom said to me, then she added "Do it again,
    so I can get another picture of you."

    After I tired Bill and Cathy out, I crawled out of the pool and plopped
    down on the lounge chair.

    "Smile baby." my mom said as she took pictures of me laying on my back
    wearing my printed swim diaper.

    "Smile baby, and look like your happy." my mommy said as she clicked
    away.

    "Now sit on the edge of the lounge and put your elbows on your knees,
    and rest your little chin on the palms of your hand."

    I did as I was told.

    "Bill, what does this 'Card Full' mean?" my mom asked.

    "It means Scotty gets a reprieve from getting his picture taken." Bill
    answered.

    I got up off the lounge chair and walked to the middle of the pool, and
    said, "Bill, can I talk to you for a minute?"

    "Sure Scotty." he said as he got out of the pool.

    Bill picked up his towel and was drying himself off as he said, "What
    do you want to talk about sport?"

    "With my first paycheck, I want to buy my mom a car, if I can." I told
    him as I looked around to make sure no one else was listening.

    "Sorry Scotty, but there are laws about spending your money since you
    are still a minor, besides, Mr. Jordan and I made a deal about that."

    "What deal?"

    "Mr. Jordan is going to furnish a car for you and your mom to use as
    long as you make commercials for his company, and that S.U.V. we rode
    in over to the factory today, Cathy will use that to take you to the
    commercial shoots and any place we might need you, courtesy of Jordan
    Enterprises.

    I couldn't believe what I was hearing. All I wanted was a new car for
    my mom, and I got two.

    My eyes light up as I asked him, "Does my mom, or Cathy know?"

    "No not yet. I thought I would tell them over dinner tonight, so don't
    spill the beans Scotty."

    "I won't Bill." I said as I crossed my heart.

    "Good boy Scotty."

    I went over and sat down on the lounge chair. I felt just like I did,
    the night before Christmas, or every Christmas. I wanted to tell
    someone but knew I couldn't.

    "What's on your mind, Scotty?" Cathy asked as she picked up the towel
    beside me.

    "Nothing. I was just wondering what we were going to have for dinner,
    that's all."

    "Chinese, egg fu yong, sweet and sour pork, pork chow mein, rice, and
    all those other neat things. I'm buying tonight because it's a
    celebration" Bill said to us.

    "Sounds great Bill…I better get this kid inside before we call him
    little red." Cathy said as she looked at my shoulders.

    My mom and Bill sat down on the lounge chair together as Cathy and I
    headed back to the apartment. My mom looked so happy now, the happiest
    I've ever seen her in a long time.

    "Let's get that swim diaper off of you Scotty, and then I'll give you a
    baby oil massage for being a good kid today." Cathy said as we went
    into my bedroom.

    "All over?" I asked her.

    "Every last inch of your body Scotty."

    I went over an got out two changing pads and laid them down on my bed,
    end to end as Cathy went into the bathroom to get the baby oil. Cathy
    returned as I finished adjusting the pads. She loosened the belt on my
    swim diaper as she asked me, "I'm not going to find any surprises in
    your swim diaper, am I Scotty?"

    I just bowed my head as I said, "You told me to try the swim diaper
    out, and I did Cathy."

    "I didn't mean it that way Scotty." Cathy said as she removed my swim
    diaper very carefully. When she looked inside, she said, "Why Scotty
    Shawn McCormick, there is nothing in your swim diaper."

    "Yes there was…ME." I said as I jumped up on the bed.

    "Why you little…" Cathy said as she tossed my swim diaper onto the bed,
    then went for all the ticklish spots on my body for the next ten
    minutes.

    "What are you kids doing in there?" my mom asked from the living room.

    "Scotty played a trick on me Jeanne, so I'm teaching him a lesson."
    Cathy said to her as I giggled and laughed, and rolled side to side,
    naked on my bed, trying to get away from her hands.

    "Only one trick on you Cathy? He must like you, or he would have played
    at least a dozen tricks on you by now." my mommy said from my doorway.

    "Scotty, you going to be good now?'

    "Yes…I promise." I told her.

    She rolled me over onto my stomach, poured a little baby oil on my
    back, and then started massaging the baby oil into my shoulders and
    back. Cathy stopped for a moment, then I heard, "Smile Scotty."

    I turned to look over my shoulder, then the flash of the camera blinded
    me for a few seconds.

    "MOMMY, I'm naked."

    "I know that baby, that's why I took the picture."

    "You didn't get all of me though, you were too close."

    "Want to bet baby? I got that red face of yours, all the way down to
    your little toes, and both sets of cheeks in one picture."

    "Your not going to put that on the net, are you?"

    "No, but I'm going to frame this picture with the other one I took when
    you were two years old, and put it on the wall over the TV…I know, I'll
    call it 'From two to almost twelve.'"

    "You wouldn't…would you?"

    She just winked at me as she left my room.

    "I'll want a copy of that Jeanne, and some wallet sized ones too, so I
    can show all my friends at collage."

    "You wouldn't, would you Cathy." I said as I looked up at her smiling
    face.

    "DARE ME Scotty."

    "No, I give, I give." I said to her.

    Cathy gave me a pop on my rear, then resumed massaging the baby oil on
    my lower back, waist and butt. After I turned over, she massaged the
    baby oil on my chest, waist, groin and penis, and finished with my
    legs.

    "You lay right there Scotty until I come back."

    "Oh Bill, he looks so cute in this one." I heard my mom say from her
    bedroom.

    'Yes he's so photogenic Jeanne, I know the pictures I'm planning to
    take of him will be great." Bill said.

    "Which diaper would you like to wear now Scotty? How about one of the
    school diapers?" Cathy asked as she came back into my room.

    "Printed?"

    "Which Print?"

    "Surprise me." I said

    Cathy went to the closet and went through the boxes until she found the
    package of 'fun print' school style, diapers.

    "You like horses Scotty?"

    "Yeah, but I never rode one."

    "Well, if you keep it dry until bedtime Scotty, Maybe you can dream
    your riding a horse after you go to sleep."

    "What size are they Cathy?"

    Cathy picked up the package again and said, "Childs extra small, (Size
    4-6)."

    "I'm a size eight Cathy, I don't think they'll fit me."

    "Your shirt is a size eight, and your pants are a size eight slim, but
    I think your butt is a size five Scotty. Let's give them a try anyway."
    she said as she unfolded the diaper, and showed it to me.

    There were all kinds of horses on the diaper, brown, white, and black
    ones, some running, and even some rearing up. I raised my rear and
    Cathy placed the diaper beneath my butt, then she pulled the front of
    the diaper up snug between my legs and fastened the rear to the front.

    "How do you like the school diaper Scotty?"

    "It fits just like my pull-ups. But these are a lot softer."

    "The way those fit you Scotty looks like they are the right size for
    you."

    "You done with me." I asked.

    "Yes, you my go SIR."

    I ran out of my bedroom to my mom's room saying, "What looks so cute?"

    I was expecting my nude picture to be on my mom's computer screen when
    she said, "This picture of you being tossed by Bill to Cathy in the
    pool."

    I looked at the picture of me flying thru the air above the pool, water
    cascading down off of me, a big smile on my face, and a crystal clear
    view of the printed swim diaper I was wearing.

    "You know Jeanne, I think I'll use that picture on the front of the
    catalog I'm going to have printed." Bill said.

    "Do I get a royalty for the picture Bill?" my mom asked him.

    He kissed her cheek, then said, "Your royalty has just been paid in
    full."

    "Got any more pictures of me?" I asked.

    "Sure do sweetheart." my mom said as she clicked slowly through them.

    When she got to the nude photo of my butt, she said, "Bill, maybe you
    should use this picture for the back cover of the catalog , you know,
    the end."

    Everyone started laughing but me.

    "That would be a great picture for the back cover." Bill said teasingly
    as he reached down, scooped me up, and cradled me in his arms.

    "Don't I get a say in this." I asked

    "Sure you do baby, want to be facing right, of facing left?" my mom
    asked as she moved my image back and forth.

    "I give up." I said as I put my hands up in the air.

    "Anyone for dinner yet." Bill asked

    All of our hands went up in response to his question.

    "Guess I'll go make a call to Mr. Wong's, and place our order." Bill
    said as he lowered me back down to the floor.

    Cathy and I followed him out into the living room leaving my mom to
    look at more pictures of me on her computer.

    After Bill hung up the phone, he sent me to go get my mommy so he could
    talk to us in the living room. When he told my mom that Mr. Jordan was
    going to give her a car to use at her discretion, she jumped up and
    hugged Bill. He then told Cathy that the S.U.V. was to used to get me
    to all the locations that I needed to be, and to take me to school, if
    I needed to be driven. Then he handed me a savings passbook, and when I
    opened it, it already had over seven thousand six hundred dollars in
    it, my first month's wages. I hugged him as hard as I could, then
    looked at the pass book again to make sure it was true, then I hugged
    him again. He told me he had enrolled me in a class to learn how to
    talk in front of the public, since I was still a little shy about
    speaking in front people sometimes. Bill wanted me to be ready for the
    start of the photo shoot next Monday down at Growers beach, and he
    figured it would take all week to take the pictures, and shoot some
    video tape he had in mind. I asked if it would be all okay if Matt and
    Kyle came with me, he said it was okay, as long as they didn't have
    summer school. Bill also told me that in the next few weeks before
    summer ended, he wanted me to talk to other kids, at the Y and other
    places, and tell them about all the products that Jordan Enterprises
    manufactures, and explain to them, that they are not the only ones that
    wet their beds or pants, or even soil themselves but there are
    thousands of us out there.

    I was really going to be the spokesman for Jordan Enterprises I thought
    to myself.

    The Chinese food finally arrived, but we were too excited to eat. My
    mom was thinking about which car to get, and I told her to please make
    it a yellow car. My mom signed the papers that Bill had sent over to
    her, and then I realized that I was now the property of Bill, Jordan
    Enterprises, and my mom now, but I didn't mind after I looked inside
    that savings pass book one last time.

    "We had better eat dinner before Scotty has to go to bed." Bill said.

    After dinner, I got up, felt the front of my diaper, then went over to
    Cathy, and nudged her. As she bent down, I whispered into her ear, "I
    don't think I'm going to be dreaming about riding horses tonight."

    "Are you wet Scotty?"

    I nodded yes.

    "I really can't blame you Scotty, with all the excitement you have had
    today." Cathy said.

    "And that I drank half the pool water after you and Bill played catch
    with me." I added.

    "You can wear the circus print, the toy blocks, or how about the little
    bunny prints?" Cathy said as she got up.

    Cathy took me to my room and changed my wet diaper for a little bunny
    print diaper.

    "If these are school style diapers, why do they make them in toddler
    prints Cathy?"

    "These are size four to six Scotty, about the right size for toddlers,
    and pre-schoolers." she said as we walked back to the living room.

    Suddenly there was a flash of light, and when my eyes became accustomed
    again, I saw my mommy with Bill's camera.

    "Mom, not in this diaper."

    "Get used to it Scotty, your going to be wearing everything that Jordan
    makes." Bill said.

    "They don't make dresses do they?"

    "Not yet." Bill said as he grabbed me, picked me up and sat me on his
    shoulders.

    "Mom, if it's okay with Bill, and if Cathy will drive me, can I go and
    see Matt and Kyle tomorrow…Please?"

    My mom looked at Bill, then at Cathy, and said, "It's okay with me, but
    you better asked Bill and Cathy."

    I looked at Bill as he set me back down on the floor. I knew his
    answer. I looked at Cathy, and she had that look on her face.

    "Oh Please Cathy. Did I tell you how much I wuv you." I said as I got
    down on my knees and begged her.

    "Okay Bugs Bunny, you got a driver, as long as I get to use Bill's
    camera, and take some pictures of you."

    "Sure you can take as many…"

    "Right now Scotty, and you got to smile." Cathy said to me as my mom
    handed her the camera.

    I looked down at the blue, yellow, and pink rabbits on my diaper, then
    I said," I twink I make boom boom in my dipie." I said, hoping Cathy
    would change my diaper for a better one.

    "Nice try Scotty, NOW SMILE." She said as she took my picture.

    "Bill, how many pictures does the memory card in this camera hold ?"
    Cathy asked him.

    "Oh, about thirty I think."

    "Scotty, go over and sit on your mommy's lap like a good boy." Cathy
    said.

    "I looked at Bill, and he just threw his hands up.

    Cathy took over twelve pictures of me and my mom.

    "Cathy, take this one." my mom said as put me over her knee and
    pretended to spank me.

    When Cathy took the last picture, my mom said, "Time for bed Scotty."

    I wanted to stay up, but I was getting tired. Cathy took me to my room
    and tucked me in. My mom came in as Cathy was reading to me. Cathy
    stopped reading, and excused herself as my mom sat down on my bed.

    "Bill told me that you wanted to buy me a new car baby, that was so
    sweet of you." she said as she kissed me on my forehead.

    I blushed a little.

    "You know baby, your job with Bill and Jordan Enterprises, and my new
    position at work, we don't have to worry about money anymore." my mommy
    said as she brushed the hair out of my eyes.

    "I'm glad mommy, I was tired of the other kids asking me if I saw the
    new movie that just came out, or if I was ever going to get a game boy,
    or if I tried the new flavor of Pop Tarts."

    "Yeah, I knew it was hard on you Scotty, and me sometimes too, but we
    both survived."

    "Are you going to marry Bill?" I asked as I watched her playing with
    the wedding ring on her finger.

    "I'll make you a deal baby, if I ever decide to marry him, I'll ask
    your permission first, and I will obey your decision, even if you say
    no."

    "Really, even if I say no?"

    "Even if you say no sweetheart."

    "I love you mommy." I said as I hugged her and gave her a kiss on her
    cheek.

    "Love you too baby, now get to sleep."

    "Are you working late tomorrow?"

    "Yes, at least until the end of the week. Sweet dreams baby." my mommy
    said as she turned off the light, and went back into the living room.

    I listened to all of them talk in the living room until I fell asleep.
