T is for TOOTH

The drool has been non stop since he was 4 months old.

The hand in the mouth has been constant since he was 3 months old.

The inconsolable Ive-done-everything-for-you-I-can-think-of cry has crept in every now and then since he was 4 months old.

But oh no, tooth. You waited. You taunted us with your evil plan to push ever so slowly through the O-man's gum.

Until finally, finally, you have shown your craggy face.

And although I cursed you for months, I cried out in JOY when we discovered you yesterday!

But I also had a moment of sadness--this is one of those forever-moments that I know will be locked in my memory forever--another step along the journey of growing up...

There is nothing like a good pair of jeans; they shape us, support us and make us look our best. I'd love for you to share your jeans with me!
