She has sprouted a new tooth, a faint white bud in the gummy ridges of her mouth. She hides it like her own little Christmas secret. I only saw it today when she stopped sucking her fist long enough to smile, and it flashed like a beacon heralding bright new days. Solid foods! Weaning! Mommy gets her life back! Tooth brushing! New tooth! New tooth!
Immediately about six family members were crowded around all trying to pry open her lower lip while she looked at us as if we had all lost our minds. Ahh, the holidays.
