The Farmer in the Dell

Yep, I'm a country boy at heart.

Are you sure these were the only ones they had?

Mom and Dad took me swimming last Friday. They stopped by the local Rite-Aid to get me some swim diapers. I don't know why they wouldn't let me go au natural. Who really understands the things parents do sometimes? Anyway, Mom came out of the store with a funny look on her face. I was suspicious but thought it better not to ask any questions.

We got to the pool. It looked so inviting...but I knew I had to go through the swim diaper ritual...I never could have anticipated the trauma that awaited me. Mom and Dad pulled out the swim diapers, and I almost choked on my Cheerios...they were pink...and had the Little Mermaid on the front...and the back. They kept trying to convince me and themselves that the diaper was red, but I'm learning my colors, and it was definitely NOT red. I was in a pink diaper with Ariel splashed across my bottom. How could I ever face my friends again? How humiliating.

The Rite Aid only had one pack of swim diapers in stock...Little Mermaid.
