The Diapered Team by XJ In the backyard of the Williamsons, Charles and Andrew were tossing a baseball back and forth between each other. Charles and Andrew and his mom and dad moved into their new town, Coldbrook just three weeks ago. They haven't met anyone yet, but they are shy, because of them wearing diapers. "Charles," Andrew said, "Do you think we will meet anybody like Tommy and Nathan?" Tommy and Nathan were diapered friends at their old town. Charles said, "I hope we will meet some kids. I do see kids walking up the street who look like our ages, so I hope we can." Their mom came out of the backdoor and said, "Charles and Andrew, do you need changing? We have to go to the supermarket." Charles and Andrew didn't need to be changed, so they put on their shorts and went to the car. Andrew and Charles slid up the sliding door to their minivan and got in. Mrs. Williamson got in and started the car. As she backed down the driveway, she asked, "How do you think you'll love the town? I should stop at the library." She looked out the window and said, "This is a beautiful town." Andrew said, "Mom, does this town have year round school? How come they aren't out yet?" They moved 3 days after they got out for summer vacation, but they started in early August, while the kids here don't go back until after Labor Day. Mrs. Williamson said, "They start later than in Florida and I guess they had a few snow days, so they are still in school. Want to see the school?" Charles said, "Are we in the same school, mom?" His mom said, "Nope, you are going into Cold-Spring Middle School, the regional middle school for Coldbrook and Spingfield, while Andrew is going to Coldbrook East School. Cold-Spring Middle School has a good soccer team and Coldbrook, Springfield, Latham and Andover - this region - has a great little league team." Charles said, "They do? I hope I could play. I wouldn't mind playing. I just hope no one will say anything." His mom interrupted him and said, "Charles David, you know you need diapers so just be honest. If you don't, you might get kidded by more kids then if you just tell that you need them." Charles said, "Mom, what can I say? Oh I hope you don't mind, but I wear diapers? That is uncool!" "Tell them that you were born with that problem. If you are friends first, who knows, you might find someone to be friends with." She pulled into a space at the BlueStar Supermarket and said, "Come on, lets go shopping." Pulling into another space was Marge Eastwood with her 11 son, Peter and her 8 year old son, Aaron. Peter said, "Mom, how long will we be here?" Mrs. Eastwood said, "Just a few minutes. We need to get a few things." They got out of the car and headed to the entrance of BlueStar.
