Teething or Seething?


Is my son teething little, painful, nearly invisible teeth? Or does he simply seeth at the thought of listening to preachers preach?

My happy, joyful son seems to be in a good mood 80-90% of the time. But when we sit in a pew for a nice Sunday sermon it seems like the kid always ends up fussy. This weekend we made a trip to Birmingham, AL to see some friends. My boy was pretty good in his first ever bible class. Then he sucked down a bottle and fell asleep when we began worship service.

Then out of nowhere he woke up during the sermon and started fussing. It's one thing for a baby to be fussy. But when my poor, abused wife took him to the nursery he went hog wild. Thankfully the nursery was very well insulated against sound. But you could still hear him screaming at the top of his lungs.

So either we need Anbesol or the services of two priests armed with holy water. The saga continues.
