To Bite or To Manipulate, that is the question

The girls could not be more different. My friend LRW has identical girls and she was just saying how their very DNA is the same but their personalities are soooo different. More of the same over here.

Piper gets frustrated and she still bites. She is not very covert in her transgressions. She knows it is wrong but she is more likely to inflict some sort of physical pain (but this happens very rarely) than anything else.

Lela on the other hand likes to inflict emotional pain. Today alone she has tormented Piper (probably because she is tired) in her own way. She took one of Piper’s books (during clean up time) and locked it in the bedroom. When it was time to wash our hands she ran to the bathroom and locked the door behind her so that Piper could not wash her hands. If she saw Piper looking sideways at a toy (like the shovel at the park) she ran over and said she had it first and turned her back on an emotionally distraught Piper.

It is interesting to see how they exact their punishment on each other. I am sure it will be even MORE interesting when they are both teenagers. Heaven help me:)
