Comment from Ric Myworld
This is one of those stories that I was able to picture the punchline that was coming, and it still got me tickled. That's when a joke is really a good one. Thanks for sharing.

THANKSSSSSS!
The gist is true--I don't think they wasted the diapers. The parents were cool about it! (Four times was likely an understatement.)

How funny, it seems that even I knew that, and I changed copious amounts of the old cloth nappies, (diapers) so we can't really blame from being inexperienced, well done, blessing Roy

You have me howling in laughter again. I needed that this morning. Nothing like starting the day with a good laugh. I don't doubt this story, except that four times around the middle seems obsessive but funny, nevertheless.

Not while I have a mouthful of coffee, Liz! Is your personal life ever bereft of humor? You find it in everything. My kids were raised with those old-fashioned cloth-and-giant-safety-pinned diapers. I figure we saved thousands over Pampers. Well, until you tallied in the plumbing bills. This was computer screen-wiped funny!

Haha, funny now, but not so much to the girls then. You did a good job with this little diaper caper, Liz. I enjoyed reading it. I hope they can laugh about it now. I'm glad the parents were understanding (? right).
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

Comment from Wendy G
Aah! To give the girls credit, they showed great initiative in ensuring the problem didn't recur. Doubtless the parents needed scissors to undo the diaper for the next change. Very humorous.

I loved this! I laughed with the electrical tape. I can picture it. At least the girls were quick on their feet and were resourceful. I hope the babysitting service was successful after that. Besides my siblings, I never babysat for an infant, so more power to them. Thanks for the chuckle!

This story, The Pampered Baby Caper, is funny and could be a true story as I know I have forgotten to use the tabs correctly.

An excellent slice of Lauren's life. A good story told in an amusing witty manner. I think it may be 'illegal' to quote the diaper brand, but who cares!

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hello Liz.
The electrical tape was a reasonable solution. It was very reasonable since that is all they could find. However, peelable double sided tape to a young teenager is not always obvious. Hopefully they didn't throw away the paper diapers. All in all, I would say that was a very good experience for them both.
