While we're on the topic of biting...

I am completely addicted to the Twilight series. I have already finished the first book and am now 450 pages into New Moon. I have Eclipse and Breaking Dawn waiting for me when I finish.

At first I was skeptical and wasn't planning to read these books, but I got rather curious. Working with teenagers, I like to try and keep up with them so I have some way to connect to the things they are interested in. So many of the students (mainly female) were reading these books. If you haven't seen one, they are long...I'm talking 600-750 pages each! Books that long are NOT what you typically find your run of the mill teenager reading. This alone intrigued me. Then, toward the end of the school year I was sitting in a conference for a special services student. She is a self-proclaimed non-reader. I noticed she had a Twilight book with her, so in an effort to make conversation I asked her about it. You should have seen her eyes light up. I clearly remember her saying to me, "Mrs. Renier, you have to read this book! I don't like to read, but I love this book and I can't wait to read the next one." This floored me and I decided then and there I would read Twilight.

Little Biter

Ok Mommy Friends, I need any words of wisdom you have to offer. This evening the girls were sitting at the table eating apples. Pretty soon Peyton is out of her seat and playing on the floor. Next, she is under the table and Allison screams because Peyton just bit her leg. This all happened for no apparent reason. Then when I was getting her ready for bed, she kept trying to bite my arm.

Has anyone else had a little biter? Advice?
