I'm a Goner!

Trifecta Writing Challenge’s thirty-three word weekend trifextra is "tooth.” 


 Wasn't it just yesterday that first tooth furiously fought its way screaming to the surface? Today a giant smile full mischievously, lovingly, innocently, adorably strums the strings of my heart.  
Time does fly! 

Baby Boy and his sweet, soul-stealing smile!

    You and I were on the same wavelength for our theme tonight. It is remarkable how much the first tooth memory leaves for parents.

      Thanks, Erin. He is Baby Sis's Baby Boy, but I love him like he was my own. I am crazy in love with that smile.

    This is so true! I remember when my baby lost her first tooth-and she'll be 18 in December! Sweet and precious picture, and 33 words!

    Aw, this is so sweet (love the tooth screaming to the surface - great description!) It's shocking how fast the time flies by. My oldest baby will already be eleven in about a week.

      Thanks, JannaT! It seems that everything he does, he does with all of his focus and energy. He is amazing to watch, I wish I was closer so I could see even more of it in person.
