Everything felt so easy with Remus. Sirius watched carefully, noticing how he parented at the beach, and tried to emulate him. He reapplied Harry’s sunscreen every time Remus reapplied Teddy’s and gave Harry sips of water whenever Remus handed Teddy his sippy cup. Sirius even noticed Remus reaching into Teddy’s swim diaper periodically to empty it of sand. Remus seemed to do this automatically, without even thinking about it, just pulling the diaper open, tipping it sideways, and emptying the heavy sandbag it was starting to become. Sirius attempted to mimic this, too, and by the third try, he’d almost managed to empty Harry’s diaper completely.
