Two Teeth On a Mission



Dear Laney,

You still have just your two bottom teeth, but that doesn't slow you down from trying new foods. While on this vacation, you've had hushpuppies and crawfish and chicken fried rice and peking dumplings and fried okra and cheese grits. You now consider baby food to be an appetizer - something to occupy your time while the kitchen prepares your real dinner.

But overall, this is the Vacation of The Sweet Potato Fry.

Yesterday, we had lunch at a lovely Southern cafe, and when the waiter brought a plate for everyone BUT you, you did the Crumple Face and pitched a fit. Trying to get on your good side, a cook from the kitchen came out and brought you a bowl of cheese grits...and then a plate of sweet potato fries. You did finally quit fussing, but I don't think you ever forgave him for being tardy.

You're one tough customer.

Love,
Mom
