Okay so we all know Eva's taken to biting at Brenda's w/ the other kids to either defend herself, or more likely b/c she's learned that after biting she gets her way. That might be b/c the kids are terrified of her, or as they are crying licking their wounds she grabs the item she wants. Well today, she was on the attach all day long! We went shopping looking for new shoes for her, apparently she was tired of shopping so rather than learn to talk & tell me that, she decided the message would be much clearer if she just bit me repeatedly! Luckily these were through my shirt (she was attacking my upper arm & shoulder) felt like a mild pinch. When that wasn't working she would either grab my hair or try to pull my nose off. It's hard to believe that otherwise she is so sweet.
The biting doesn't stop there... I was cleaning strawberries, Grace & Eva were eating them almost faster than I could clean & cut. I bent down to give Eva one, she was dancing & bumped my thumb nail into the base of her nose. I apologized, but she must have still been mad b/c she bit me through my jeans hard enough to leave a small (only b/c she only has 4 teeth - otherwise it would be huge!) bruise on my leg! I knew it hurt, but I was shocked to see the mark she left behind - little stinker.
She managed to keep this up the rest of the night, anytime she wasn't getting her way... out come the teeth. Typically she is slow enough that you see what is coming & stop her. I'm not sure what we're going to do, at this rate she won't have any friends!
