My dearest Belle,
You cut your first tooth today!!!
Okay… the more accurate phrase would be: “We discovered your first tooth today~!”
Tonight, we were bathing you, and while washing your gums, I felt something sharp. I thought something had gone into your mouth and felt around a bit more. And there it was… your first tooth! A teeny, tiny sliver of white on your lower gum!!!
You never showed any signs of pain or discomfort - no fever… no extra fussiness… nothing! It was just you being you, and all of a sudden, POOF! There was your first tooth! Papa and I were so shocked!
You, peanut, are my amazing bundle of surprise and joy!
Love always,
Mama
