Teeth

I have been thnking and thinking when should I let Bb-G brush her teeth. All this while I only use hankerchief to wash her mouth, gum and teetch during bathing, and I feel now is the right time I introduce her toothrush and toothpaste.

Actually, by right I should let her brush her teeth when she is one year old (she already had some teeth) I delay the process because I am a lazy mother. To be honest and frank, I dislike and don't enjoy brushing teeth at all. Just because of the importance of oral hygiene, I must brush my teeth. I still remember when I was very young, about 5-6 years old, I did not brush my teeth before I went to the kindergarten. My mum kept asking me to do so, but I just refused. My mom is a fierce woman, and I think at that moment she could not tolerate me, so she slapped my cheeks, from left to right, for few times. End of the day, my dad came to my rescue. He talked to me nicely, then I was willing to brush my teeth.
When I reached kindergarten, I could still remember my teacher said I was soooo cute, because I had rosey cheeks. In fact, I kena slappped early in the morning. I think I did not explain what happen to my teacher...

Well, guess, I really need to create a teeth-brushing passion in Bb-G, I hope she would not follow my footsteps. Last week I bought a toddler's toothbrush and toothpaste with my Parkson vouchers. \


Once I reached home, I immediately showed both items to Bb-G. She delightedly took the brush and brushed her teeth. Oh! I didn't realise she knows how to do this...


Till to date, I have not really teach her the proper way of brushing teeth with toothpaste. Guess tonight I will coach her how to brush....
