A Sliver of White

So last night I found something remarkable in an hour of agony! Hasn't that happened before? After coming home to settle in for the night I was frustratingly losing my mind to say the least. Let me say not everything I post will be full of joy and splendor, that's not life. Life is messy, loud, and fun :) at least mine is. My youngest despite being fed, changed, cuddled, sang to, rocked, the whole deal was screaming and crying and ceased to stop. And I was feeling like a major failure at my mommy duties when all the sudden I saw a glimmer...like something was in her mouth and so I checked and sure enough I found a little sliver of her first pearly white had popped on through! And then a explosive feeling of relief because I knew it wasn't me and now that I knew what was wrong with my baby I could now fix it. And I did. Orajel and some ibuprofen and she felt better only woke up once during the night and I have her a little more orajel on the sore spot and she happily went right back to sleep! So yes thank you orajel you saved this moms sanity for the day which is quite a feat!
