Devil child

I have a redheaded granddaughter who will be 2 in 2 weeks. She is a whole lot like you describe. I love her to death but she is a "pistol"! Maybe yours is going through her "terrible two's early? Do they outgrow it? Well, I have 5 grands and they are from 18 months to 6 years old, and I have learned they go right from one stage into another. Some are just more trying!
