When I was a little girl about 4 yrs old, I had (as most children do) the occasional accident in bed at night. The next morning, my mom would have to strip the covers and clean the vinyl mattress coverings with a water/vinegar solution. I thought I was such a lucky little girl because I had a 'water' bed. I told everyone until one day I heard my mom explaining the truth to my grandmother.
