Memory By Krystal

My co-workers and I were talking the other day about bathroom accidents. A memory came to mind that I hadn’t thought of in a long time, so I thought I would share it here. It may not be the best thing to remember Mason by, but here goes anyway…

When I was in sixth grade and Mason was in fourth, his teacher came into my classroom asking for me. He escorted me back to Mason’s classroom and told me that he had had an “accident.” At first I was scared that something bad had really happened, but then realized it was a potty accident. I quietly went into his classroom, gathered his things, and met him outside. We then walked home early from school.

After relaying the story to my co-workers, they asked if I gave Mason a hard time and teased him all the way home. I was happy to say that I hadn’t. I remember just telling him it was going to be okay. We never did talk about it again. I’m grateful that I was able to be a “big sister” for him that day.
