Just in case you need additional proof that Violet is just a little… well, let’s say different from the norm, check out these pictures:
Why is she taping her mouth shut? Who knows - even Violet couldn’t explain it. She just didn’t feel like talking and I guess she didn’t think it was physically possible to stop herself without taping her mouth shut.
That wouldn’t surprise me. She is constantly talking, singing, humming, and making a variety of clicking and snapping noises with her mouth. It can be annoying.
I don’t really mind Violet taping her mouth shut. In fact, I’ve wished a few of my other children would do this on occasion. I did have to draw the line when she started taping her eyelids open ala Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory.

I could just see her ripping out every eyelash when the tape came off and really how cute can a kid be with no eyelashes? Not very.
