Madeline bit me on the nose!

Today when I picked Eva up I was running a little bit late - I'd gone to get Gracie at school first so we could all go to the park before it got dark. I walked into Brenda's w/ Grace and Eva came running out saying, "MommyMadelineBitMeOnTheNOSE!" all one word:-) It took me a minute to realize - she'd sayd "Mommy Madeline Bit Me on the NOSE!" even though I was looking right at her cute little button nose and she has a big red ring on it! OUCH! Poor baby, and of course b/c of Eva's history:-) I had to ask, "Did Eva do anything to her?" But Brenda (thankfully) said "No, nothing." Guess Maddy was just having a bad day.

Brenda said when it happened, she got a tissue for Eva and there was some blood and Eva called for her friends to see "her bleed!". After doctored by Brenda, and Maddy was scolded, Maddy was in the playroom crying when Eva went in and told her, "Maddy, why you cry? All you hafta do is say you sorry. It doesn't hurt no more." Isn't she cute!!!

Apparently Maddy's mom cried when she heard, I felt bad for Eva and can't look at her little nose w/out thinking "Poor Baby!" but you can't live in a glass house and throw stones! I know from past experience w/ Eva you can try all you want to keep them from biting and it still may not matter:-) So Eva has proudly wore her war wounds - telling everyone what happened;-)
