    In the heart of this lively home lived a little blonde girl named Emily. She was the apple of everyone's eye, always full of energy and laughter, constantly running around and exploring.

    Emily's older sister was her best friend. Despite being a teenager and having her own interests, she always found time to play with Emily and even change her dirty diapers, a job their mother despised.

    Their mother, on the other hand, couldn't stand the smell of Emily's dirty diapers. She would often scrunch her nose, calling Emily disgusting, which would make the little girl want to cry.

    One day, Emily ate 20 candy bars and pooped the biggest poop she ever had. Her sister was changing her diaper when Emily began to kick and scream, creating a ruckus.

    The noise was so loud that their mother, who was busy doing her work, heard it and burst into the room, her face red with anger. She yelled at Emily, calling her a little brat.

    The sister tried to calm the mother, explaining that Emily was just scared. But the mother was not ready to listen. She scolded Emily for the mess and for eating her chocolates without asking.

    In her anger, the mother took Emily and spanked her, causing poop to smear around. She grimaced at her hand, now stinking of poop, and yelled at Emily again, calling her a brat.

    Emily's sister was terrified. She hugged Emily, consoling her and promising her that she would handle the diaper changes from now on.

    From that day forward, Emily's sister took over all the diaper changes. She made sure Emily was comfortable and never scared during the process.

    Their mother, still disgusted by the smell, stayed away. But she slowly began to understand Emily's fears and tried to be more patient.

    Emily felt safer with her sister. She stopped being scared during diaper changes and even started to help by not kicking or screaming.

    And so, life in their lively home went back to normal, filled with laughter, love, and the occasional stinky diaper. But, no matter what, they always stuck together as a family.
