Thanks for your reply.

I have been giving words to her feelings as well, so I will keep doing that. It's just so interesting because it isn't the typical "lose control" that you normally see. She's so calm about it. There is a frown on her face, but there isn't screaming/crying/etc. The only time there are tears are when I set her down off my lap for hitting.

For the most part, I figure this is a phase that will end, but I was curious if anyone had any magical solutions. :P
