Snaggletooth

Yes, this is the name by which the Everts family calls their sweet Ava. However, yesterday on the solemnity of Christ the King, Colette entered the realm of the snaggletooths. She has a tooth! I noticed about a week and a half ago that she had a pointy little dagger of a tooth in the back of her mouth. I could feel the point, but was unable to see it, leaving me with little proof that my daughter was one in a million by having a molar be her first tooth! However, now there is proof of a tooth, just not in that spot. Yesterday at mass I put my finger in her tiny mouth and felt a poke! Right there in the front on the bottom left is a tooth! It is barely there, but it is there! Visible like the white cap on a wave. I can't believe our little girl is getting so big. In two weeks she will be half a year old! It never ceases to amaze me when I consider the depth, breadth, length, involvement and intricasies of the universe and all it contains, that something as seemingly insignificant as a tooth can mean so much, but it does.
