For Eric

My husband has one sister, Joy. She and her husband Eric are expecting their first child in November. Since Father's Day is right around the corner, I thought I'd post a little sisterly advice for the Father-to-be.

Spread the diaper in the position of the diamond with you at bat. Then fold second base down to home and set the baby on the pitcher's mound. Put first base and third together, bring up home plate and pin the three together. Of course, in case of rain, you gotta call the game and start all over again. ~Jimmy Piersal, on how to diaper a baby, 1968
