On Broadway

Our wonderful dentist
who in a brilliant correspondence
of name and profession
is called Dr. Fang

Told Baby A
at her two-year dental check up
that her teeth were: "Strong!
Like Lion King!"

A whole year later
as we take our seats
in literally the last row
at the Minskoff

The toddler
bares her teeth
in friendly
affinity.

It was a wonderful show. My dream room now has a swirling terrazzo and hovering bird mobiles. And given the seven-year difference between them, I'm constantly grateful for these few years when both Li'l A and Baby A can enjoy the same shows.
