"Darlyn, just go back with Wendy and stand outside the door, you don't have to really watch her while she goes, just make sure that she goes into the bathroom and is able to get her clothes off and is gonna get on the potty, okay?" He told her as he took Kim by the hand and led her off to get cleaned up and changed into some clean clothes and a new diaper.

"Tom, if your gonna be taking your sister out, here's some extra money for you to both have enough to have a good time, if you have any change left over, make sure to save it and bring it back to me." He told him as he handed the boy $60 in cash. "Don't spend it all on one thing, okay?"

"I think first, we're gonna go to the park and let you play for a bit, then afterwards we're gonna go and get something to eat and then afterwards go and see a movie together before we come home, okay?" He told her as he got the money and put it in his secure pocket and motioned for his sister to follow him

"I was gonna ask you to come with anyways, I don't feel confident in choosing girls clothes." He told her as he looked to Wendy and Kim and said "okay you two, let's try going potty before we leave and then we'll be going to the store to get you both some nice new clothes.

"Darlyn can you make sure that both girls at least go potty before they leave with us to go to the store and get new clothes, please?" He asked her as he set Wendy down on the floor so that she could walk to the potty if she needed it and use it, same with Kim as Tom let her off his lap and waited for her to walk with Wendy to the bathroom to use the potty if she needed it.

John went into the locker room with them and then helped Alyssa back into her overalls and then helped her tie her street shoes and did the same with the other girls. He hoped that he wasn't gonna get in trouble for doing this, but the girls had asked for his help and since there was no assistant PE coach with him, he was gonna have to do this whenever any of the girls needed help with getting changed into their PE clothes and back again. If they had accident then he would help them the best he could where they have their accident and then take them to the nurse's office to get changed into clean clothes before coming back to the rest of the class.

Terrance slept until the sun was starting to go down, when he did wake up though, he had felt a need to go to the bathroom, but also saw that the fire was completely out and went to go and gather some more wood for the fire and then came back and started the fire up again and let it roar while he had noticed that Ruth had closed her eyes and assumed that she was sleeping and just let her sleep until she woke up and then would take her with him to pee if she needed to go that was. He still didn't know that she had wet her diaper in her sleep.

[An Awkward Position: The New Teacher]

John came into the locker room and went over to Alyssa to help her get her clothes off and then helped her to get changed into her PE clothes and then saw the other girl that was putting her shirt on backwards and helped her get her clothes on the right way. Once he had helped all the girls that needed help, he reminded them to use the connecting bathroom to the locker room and then told them to assemble outside of the locker room when they were ready so that they could go and play some kickball for their PE Class. Of course he would have them warm up and do some exercises first so that they could be all loose and limber and play at their very best and have fun doing it as well.

"Wendy, you don't have to wash the dishes, you can sit down and watch cartoons if you want, Darlyn is the one who usually takes care of the cooking and cleaning, I don't think she'd want you doing stuff that she already does to allow the others to be normal. If you want to be more responsible and do chores, I can give you small stuff to do, but I don't think that I want you having chores just yet, after all, your still getting used to life here, so it wouldn't be very good of me to just do that to you right off the bat." Paul told the girl as he sat there and continued to hold her lightly in his arms and watched cartoons with the rest of the family.

John went to the first grade area and picked them up saying "Hello first graders, I'll be your PE teacher, my name is John, feel free to call me whatever you wanna call me. I think what we're gonna do is have you all take a potty break before and after the PE class, okay?" He told the class and started walking with the girls to the designated area for their PE, on the way there though, he stopped off at the bathrooms and let the girls go inside and use the potties if any of them needed to. He would then have taken them to their PE changing area and had them change into their PE clothes and meet him back outside the locker room before walking them to the PE area and told them that they were gonna be playing kickball and started dividing the kids up into two teams.

Terrance laid down finally on top of the sleeping bag and closed his eyes, sleeping for a bit, he was a light sleeper during this time, so if she were to ask him for something he would instantly pop up and help her with whatever it is she needed. If he heard something that didn't sound quite right to him or something that wasn't natural near them, he would also pop up and just scan for the threat and if it was there, he would shoot it with bbs without hesitation.

"Your not gonna get in trouble if you play with the toys that Erica let you play with." Tom told Erica as he continued to try and encourage her to take the toys and play with them with Erica. He just wished that the young girl wasn't so afraid of playing. He was starting to wondering why she was scared of playing not only with others, but with others toys when she was offered them so that she can play.

"How about we go downstairs and watch some TV for a little bit together, we can watch anything that you wanna watch, I won't mind." He told her as he walked downstairs with her and then sat on the couch in front of the tv with her in his lap and turned on the TV and started looking through the TV channels until he landed on a cartoon channel and left it there so that she could watch it for a bit.

Terrance hadn't slept all night, so his eyes were starting to flutter a bit and the way he was holding his rifle at that moment was indication enough that he was tired and hadn't slept all night and really needed to sleep at the moment. He hadn't even noticed that she was looking at him and didn't know that she had wet herself a little bit in her sleep.

[Tom Johnson's Diary: My Foster Sisters -Dances with Wolves]

"Kim, your not stealing okay? She's letting you play with them. I don't know how it was at your last place, but here, it's okay to play and we won't be mad, I'll even show you how okay it is to play with Erica." He said as he took the two toys that Erica had attempted to hand to Kim and started to play with Erica for a bit and let Kim observe them and see that it was really okay to play with the toys that her sister was letting her use to play with them.

After what seemed like an hour of just hugging her, he simply started to help Wendy get dressed, he told her to do things like "lift up your arms and I'll put your shirt on you." or "step into the panties and I'll pull them up for you." He did this calmly and nicely, once the young girl was dressed, he then lifted her up into his arms and asked her "was there anything special you wanted to do before we go and get you and Kim your new clothes and toys?" He asked her

John looked at the class and then said "alright, how about we take a break for a bit and let you girls get rid of some of the energy, go ahead and have some free time yourselves for a bit and then at 10:30, we'll start on the next lesson, okay? If any of you girls need to go potty, come up and tug on my shirt or raise your hand and I'll come over to you to let you go, okay?" He told them as he sat in the teachers chair that was nearby the board and let the girls have some fun on their own for a bit.

[An Awkward Position: The New Teacher]

John then went over to help the girl at least a little bit and instructed them to read through to the end of the chapter with their seat mates and then helped Kim out as best he could to read through the assignment that he had just given them and instead had Kim read through a paragraph at a time on the next page and stopping on the words that she was having trouble pronouncing and helped her to say them the right way, when he was done and he knew that she was doing a little bit better, he just smiled and told her what a good girl was for trying to do her best.

[Tom Johnson's Diary: My Foster Sisters -Dances with Wolves]

Paul did so and drained the bath, hugging her as she was now in the nice warm towel "well at least someone's really happy that they got a really good bath." He told her as he lightly touched her nose and then making a 'boop' sound hoping she would be okay with that and then told her "whenever you wanna start getting dressed, let me know okay and I'll leave the room so that you can get dressed on your own, okay?" He told her as he looked at the small child that he was hugging.

Meanwhile in Tom's room, Tom and his two sisters were trying to figure out how to best play a game they had found that wouldn't make Kim think she was gonna be in trouble for if she tried to play it with the other two. He was definitely gonna have to tell his dad about what he had found out regarding Kim and her unwillingness to play due to her being in trouble.

"I can stay up, you should continue to sleep, after all, you were really cold. I want you to be well rested for when the rest of the class finds us. Just lay your head against me and sleep, I'll be fine and you don't have to worry about me." He told her as he continued to just let her sit against him and lay her head and sleep as peacefully as she could in the environment they were in.

[An Awkward Position: The New Teacher]

"Go and sit down Monica, thank you for that." He told her as he went over to the board and erased the number and repeated the same process he had done before with the previous two girls and waited for the girl with the number three to come up to the front and then start doing her exercise, once she would be done, he would send her back to her seat and then keep doing the process until all the girls were able to come up and complete the exercise and then he would start the English lesson and test the best readers in the class to see how good they really were.

Terrance recognized that she was needing help because of her shivering and helped her get into the warmth of the blanket and as close to the fire as he could get her without any of the embers hurting her and once he knew she was getting warm again, he took a big sigh of relief and a deep breath and calmed himself down again and tried to get himself to stop worrying.

[Tom Johnson's Diary: My Foster Sisters -Dances with Wolves]

"Alright Wendy, how about we do this instead, whenever you feel like you have to go potty and your out with me, Tom or Darlyn, just tug on our shirts and whisper in our ears that you gotta potty and that'll be able to help us know if you need to go or not, okay?" He told her as he started to wash her quickly and once he was done, he tried to splash her a little bit and encourage her to play around in the bath for a bit if she wanted to. He didn't want her just sitting in a boring bath and not associating it with a time that she can use as playtime. He really didn't know how these girls were treated when it comes to playtime so he had to really be careful when testing the limits.

[An Awkward Position: The New Teacher]

"Very good Jessica. Go and sit down and I'll ask for the next number." He told her as he smiled and went to the board and erased the number and then wrote another number on the board, number 5 and waited for the girl with that number to come up and do her part of the exercise. He would watch and listen to each girl when they would come up and do their part of the exercise. He just waited for number 5 to come up.

[Lost on a School Trip]

Terrance handed her the diaper to put back on and waited.

He then just walked with her over to the fire again and let her check on her clothes, which would probably be nice and warm right about now and let her get dressed by turning away if she chose to get dressed at that moment.

He would just have waited for her to be fully dressed.

[Tom Johnson's Diary: My Foster Sisters -Dances with Wolves]

"Erica,it's okay. There's no reason for you to cry. We'll figure it out and it'll be okay." He said as he looked to Kim and told her the same thing and tried to use one of his hands to wipe her tears away, trying to calm both her and Erica down so that they weren't crying anymore and instead just started to take the two girls up to his room for now and try to figure out something that they could all play and enjoy together.

Paul saw the puddle and asked Wendy "did you know that you needed to go potty Wendy?" He asked her as he looked at her, not scolding her for wetting when she was awake and clearly right near a toilet that she could have used if she knew that she needed to go, which he suspected that she hadn't known that she needed to go at all for some reason, which he thought was pretty weird. He then said "How about we give you a nice clean bath so that you can get into those clothes and not have to worry about being wet until we can get you some new clothes, okay?" He told her as he added "you, me and Kim are gonna go out and get you two some pretty new clothes and some nice toys and maybe get you some padded panties that can be easily taken off if you need to potty and wanna use it without having to worry about wearing a heavy diaper during the day, okay?" He told her as he lifted her lightly into the bathtub.

[An Awkward Position: The New Teacher]

"Class, come and line up so that you can pick a number and once you have your piece go and sit down and then I'll write the first number on the board and the person with that number will come up to the front and start the exercise." He told them as he waited for the girls to come and line up like he had asked and held out a small box with folded up papers that had numbers written in different color ink for each number and once they would have written the first number on the board which was number nine and then waited for the girl with that number to come up to the class.

"That's fine with me." He told her as he took her to one of the trees nearby the now roaring fire and let her get her clothes down as he turned himself and occupied his time waiting with checking around the area again through the scope of his rifle, although he couldn't see much with the darkness around them but he did have a small light that he had in a pocket of his fleece jacket and used that to help him see in the night through the rifle scope.

[Tom Johnson's Diary: My Foster Sisters -Dances with Wolves]

"I don't think she wants to play because of maybe something that happened to her when she was trying to play, maybe?" He asked out loud, not sure if this was true or not and hoped that he was or wasn't right. He then smiled down at the young girl and just let her wrap her arms around him, but actually instead thought about holding onto the young girl and asked her if he could pick her up and waited for her response before picking up the girl into his arms and let her lay there if she felt like it.

"How about when we go to the park Erica, I can play with you for as long as you possibly want? Or the three of us can go to my room and play a clapping game if that might be easier for all of us and we can all have fun at the same time." He told her as he looked at Erica hoping she was all right with that.

Paul meanwhile looked at Wendy and beckoned her over to where he was standing and when he does, he told her "Wendy, wanna come with me so that I can see how bad the damage is and maybe try to help you clean up if your okay with that." He said as he wondered if he was able to find some spare clothes that would fit her in the closet and went to go look real quick and did happen to find one pair and realized that this would be the last pair of clothes he could give her, they were a pair of Darlyns old clothes that he had for some reason held onto and handed them to Wendy when they were in the bathroom and let her undress herself as he started the bath for her.

"It's okay, not like you would wanna sleep on the dirty floor and get yourself all dirty without a place to wash up, right?" He asked her as he said "looks like the fire is starting to get low, so while it's still going, let's fine some more stuff that we can use to help it go and keep us safe with it's warm light." He told her as he looked at her and made to start to get up so that he could look around for some more wood to put on the fire.
