These brought back memories, the instant I saw them. It was just like yesterday... Christina had her baby-check-up, the pediatrician suggested to start shopping around for a dentist, and in the mean time, brush her teeth.
Hmmm... that wasn't a bad idea, why not let the baby play with the toothbrush and perhaps in the process her teeth will get cleaned somehow. So one hot August day I opened a brand-new toothbrush package for Christina and gave it to her. She didn't know what to make of it at first, so we "demonstrated". Soon she caught on, she liked it, and enjoyed it.
I was taking pictures of her first toothbrush encounter when Stephanie and her mom came by for a surprise visit. Christina usually would forget anything and everything she's doing when she sees Stephanie but on this particular moment, she was engrossed in brushing her teeth.
Stephanie sat by her, eyeing the toothbrush, tried to take it away but didn't succeed, but she was intent and it seemed in the pictures that she effortlessly picked the toothbrush out of Christina's hands and as soon as she got her hands on that toothbrush, straight to her mouth it went! Christina cried bloody murder! We tried to bribe her with a toy, which she in turn used to bribe Stephanie, but it wasn't successful. In the end, Stephanie lost interest on the toothbrush so Christina got it back. This was their first fight, at less than a year-old! I do not recall them having another "fight" about anything else. They were always kissing and hugging whenever they saw each other.
