Don't Bite Your Friends

Dear Sophie,

One of your favorite tv shows is Yo Gabba Gabba, and on that show, there's a song with the repeated lyric, "Don't Bite Your Friends."  I've heard stories about biters and their victims, but today it wasn't just a story from someone else.  My dear little, Sophie, you bit one of your friends at school today.  This was a first.  Ms. Robin called me at work to report the incident.  She didn't tell me the name of your victim, but she said she thinks that the other child "invaded your space."  When I picked you up from day care at the end of the day, the program director, Ms. Melissa Smytson, told me that you were just frustrated.

Whatever the reason, I hope we can nip that in the bud.  I hope you'll grow up to become kind and patient.  Unfortunately, with your Daddy's genes, patience might not be in your nature.

I love you, Baby Girl.  Don't bite your friends.

Mommy
