                        Chapter 099


A couple days went by. Grandpa went back up to Pennsylvania 
and Laura and Emily both returned home. Laura called me 
sometime before lunch on Monday. Laura proceeded to tell me 
that she had a great Christmas and that when she got home her 
parents had another present for her and it was in a huge box. 
She got a keyboard that had a stand, and a seat, and a music 
holder. It also had plugs for line in, line out, and MIDI. I 
was excited for her. I told her about my guitar and she really 
was happy. Unlike me, Laura knew how to play her instrument 
fairly well since she had been taking piano lessons since the 
third grade. A while later after lunch Emily called me. We 
talked a bit and I asked her what she got for Christmas. She 
rattled off a few things and then said, "And when we got home 
I had this really huge box in my living room." She told me 
that it was a drum set with stands and a seat and everything. 
It had symbols, snare, toms, and it was neat. Emily's mom 
helped her set it up in the garage. Since they had a car port 
and only one car They used the garage for storage and so on.


I was really happy. I told her what Laura and I got and we 
decided that since Laura and I were more portable that we'd 
bring our instruments to her house and we could start a band. 
Only thing is, Emily didn't know how to play drums either. I 
told my mom and dad at lunch what Laura and Emily got for 
Christmas. I was really anxious to go over to Emily's. 


I called Robert and talked to him a little while. I told him I 
heard what his mommy said the other day when they left the 
nursery. He told me that he had a talk with his mom in the car 
that night and told her not to tell him who to hang out with 
and that I'm not always a baby. He said his mommy got mad at 
him but then his dad agreed with him that I was a nice girl 
and there's nothing wrong with Robert hanging out with me. I 
was glad he stuck up for me. That was way cool.


Later on daddy drove me to Emily's house. He helped me unload 
my guitar and amp from the truck. He helped me set it up in 
the garage. Laura was already there playing her keyboard. She 
had hooked it up through Emily's little stereo to give it more 
volume to compete with Emily's drums. Lucky for me my amp was 
pretty loud too. I had tuned my guitar and was used to playing 
a few chords on it now. Laura was the one who knew more about 
music then the rest of us so she came up with a progression of 
chords for us to play with. It was C, A minor, F, and G. Laura 
started playing it. She tapped her foot to count the measures. 
Emily began to tap the bass drum on each beat and then 
experimented with the snare and symbols. I played the chords 
on my guitar and was doing good accept for the F. It was hard 
to get my fingers there quick enough. But after a while I got 
the hang of it. Emily's mom came out and offered us some hot 
chocolate. We put down our instruments and went in. "You guys 
were sounding pretty good out there." Emily's mom said. 


After a while we went back out and tried some other stuff. It 
was really fun. Emily's mom cooked us dinner and we hung out 
until about 8 playing. Laura and to go home and so I stayed at 
Emily's until 9. Laura left her keyboard there. We planned on 
getting together every day and practicing.


When I got home I told mommy and daddy all about it and how 
much fun it was. "Well good sweetie. I am glad you're enjoying 
your Christmas present." Daddy said.  Tammy gave me a bath and 
then mommy tucked me in. Teala went to bed when I did. She was 
tired. Her and some of her friends from school went to the 
mall and walked around most of the afternoon. Mommy gave me a 
bottle to suck on while lying in my crib. I finished it all 
and then went pee and poo in my diaper. I fell asleep laying 
on my back with the bottle in my hand. 


The next day I woke up and got my messy didees changed and 
then ate breakfast. At about 10 Emily called. I put on my coat 
and my mittens and my hat. I gave mommy a hug and said good 
bye. I walked down the street to Emily's house. When I got 
there Laura was already there. She was showing Emily some 
stuff about keeping tempo and time signatures. I sorta knew 
about that stuff, but I mostly played by ear when it came to 
timing and what notes to play. Laura began to play something 
she had written the night before. I used a guitar book to 
figure out some of the new chords. Emily also had a drum 
lesson series on DVD. She had watched a couple of them 
yesterday night before bed. SO she also was trying to 
implement some new things.


At lunch we sat down and tried to put a few chord progressions 
together to make the themes of a song. We wanted to try to get 
something together and put lyrics to it. The next step would 
be for me to learn to sing while playing guitar. Laura and 
Emily didn't really have much of a singing voice. After lunch we 
tried to put the music together. There were many mistakes, but 
by dinner time it was coming together. My parents picked us up 
and took us over to my house for dinner. That way Emily's mom 
wouldn't have to cook for us all the time.


That night we spent the night at Emily's house. That night all 
we talked about was ideas for our song. Finally we all went to 
sleep. The next morning Emily's mommy changed us. As soon as 
we ate breakfast we were out in the cold garage and at it 
again. We took a break after lunch and Emily watched some of 
the lessons on DVD. We watched it with her so we could learn 
more about music also. It was really exciting.


We kept on getting together each day. Finally Saturday came 
and I had my first guitar lesson. My teacher was amazed at how 
well I was doing I got through several of the lessons in the 
book just in one day. I told her that my friends play 
instruments and that we were starting a band. She thought it 
was pretty cool and I showed her my part of the song we were 
making. She gave me a couple ways to do some of the chords 
differently and it sounded better. My hour was up and I waited 
for mommy to come get me. "So how was your first lesson 
honey?" Mommy asked. "It was good. I learned a lot and my 
teacher says I'm already pretty good for a beginner." I said 
while looking through the lesson book my teacher had given me.


Time went on and we spent our vacation days jamming in Emily's 
garage. We still didn't have more then a couple songs, but it 
was fun playing them over and over, and we kept getting better 
the more we played. School started again and my birthday came. 
SO did Emily and Laura's since our birthdays are close 
together we all had one big party at my house. I was now 
officially twelve years old. A lot had changed in my life. I 
felt a lot older for some reason. I mean sure I still could be 
a cute little baby, and all that, but I guess at the same time 
I was growing up too. It didn't bother me like it used to. 
Growing up is kind of cool. After school each day we would go 
to Emily's house and do our homework and then practice until 
Laura and I had to go home and go to bed.


Once again we had found a great use for diapers. We would stay 
in our wet diapers all day while playing. One night we were 
sitting around trying to think of a name for our band. We 
joked around a lot. It was funny. We thought about calling 
ourselves The Diaper Babies but that was silly. I came home 
one night and Tammy was sitting out in the porch. It was March 
already. The weather was nice. "Hey kiddo. How was practice 
tonight?" Tammy asked. I sat with her on the swing. IT was 
cool Emily still can't come out of a fill without gaining 
speed. She messes up our tempo all the time but besides that 
its going good." I said. "You guys have been spending a lot of 
time over there and stuff. It hasn't been the same around here 
ya know? It's a lot quieter." Tammy said. "Yeah?" I said. "I 
miss having you around. You know Tiff, I'm not going to be 
home forever honey. I am going to college next fall. So like 
all I have is the rest of this school year and the summer." 


We just sat there a while and talked. "Yeah I'm really going 
to miss you." I said as I started to cry. I held her. "School 
is really busy this year but this summer you and I should hang 
out and do some fun stuff together ya know?" she said. "Yeah. 
But I still don't want to lose you, you're my best friend." I 
said while crying on her shoulder. "Honey, you'll never lose 
me silly. I'm your big sister. I'll always be there for you. 
You know what I mean?" Tammy said as she wiped away a tear 
from her eyes. "Yeah but nothing will be the same. It seems 
like nothing is anymore. I mean I'm growing up and 
everything's so different now. I don't' even feel like a baby 
sometimes anymore." I said while crying.


 
Tammy just held me. We both cried. "Honey, that's what life 
is, changes, things never stay the same. That's kind of how it 
is. Ya know? But it's a good thing too. We'd get bored if 
everything was always the same." She said. "I know but I just 
wish I was really a baby again. Pretending doesn't always do 
it for me anymore." I said while crying. "I know honey. I 
know." She said as she held me. "I just don't want my inner 
child to die. I want to always hold onto that part of myself 
even when I'm mom and dad's age. You know what I mean?" I said 
while sniffling and wiping my tears on my sleeve. "Yeah. I do 
honey. Knowing you, you'll always be a baby inside. You don't 
have to always act like one. And like I always told you, I'll 
always see you as my baby sister and I'd baby you any time you 
want. So would mommy and daddy too." Tammy and I just hugged.


I fell asleep in her arms for a while. Later on we both woke 
up. It was the middle of the night. We quietly went in the 
house and crashed in her bed. I had on a wet diaper, and she 
didn't even have one on, so that next morning we woke up in a 
very wet bed. Tammy got a shower in mom and dad's bathroom and 
Aunt Kathy gave me a bath. I got diapered and dressed for 
school and ran to catch the bus. Emily and Laura were already 
there. "You look tired." Laura said. "Yeah, had a long night. 
Tammy and I talked for a while last night." I said as we got 
on the bus. We went to Miss Megan's office to drop off our 
diapers that we had washed over the weekend.


School seemed to go slower then ever. It was probably because 
we were all anxious to go practice. Some of the kids in our 
class knew about our band and thought that it was stupid. They 
were just jealous though. The bell rang later on and we got on 
the bus and went to Emily's house. I left after dinner to go 
home. I felt like I needed to spend more time with Tammy and I 
told Laura and Emily earlier that I needed to balance my time 
between the band and my sister since she wouldn't be living 
with us much longer. They were very understanding.


Tammy and I watched a movie in her room and Amy came in and 
said goodnight. Mom and dad went to bed too. "Make sure you 
two put dry diapers on before you go to bed." Mom said as she 
came in and gave us both a goodnight kiss. "Otay mommy." I 
said. After the movie was over I brushed my teeth. When I came 
back Tammy was already in her diapers and jammies. She put me 
in a dry diaper and a footed sleeper. "Wanna sleep in your 
crib tonight?" she asked. I nodded. She took me over to my 
room and put me in the crib. She put Mr. Fluffy next to me and 
pulled up my covers and tucked me in. "Nighty night baby." She 
said as she lifted the crib rail into place and left.


That dry diaper didn't stay dry for long. I totally soaked it 
and laid there for a while thinking about things. I began to 
fantasize about being a baby and I closed my eyes and a while 
later I fell asleep.
