Cutting teeth is not nearly as wonderful as the baby book made it out to be. Oh, sure, fresh sharp teeth can provide hours of amusement for an idle tongue, but I think I'd just as soon go back to scooting around and licking the carpet for fun. Mama says that cutting teeth is not so bad, but that is not true. It is terrible. It is the worst thing that has happened to me in my entire life.
The one advantage, you would think, is that now I can gnash my teeth. But the irony of it is that, with no teeth on top, I simply end up biting my gum. Ow! Hence the wailing.
Apparently teeth are supposed to help me eat my food, but I can't see that I need any help. I've been eating food for three months now just fine. Why couldn't things just stay the way they were??

Jane, I remember your pain. But it does get worse. I could tell you stories that would make your hair stand on end.... Take heart. You're going to love brushing your teeth. It is really cool and I love kids' toothpaste. -Ben
Jane, I think you are about one of the most eloquent babies I have ever heard! Home schooling is a wonderful thing.
