I’m a Mama to 3, with #4 on the way. My kids are 6, 4, and 2…and new baby! Most people call me insane, I say I am just blessed.
My 6yo, Savanna, is a challenging child. She is INCREDIBLY well behaved, which gives most people the disillusion that I am just a mean, over-bearing Mama. But she is also INCREDIBLY quick; quick to pick up new concepts, quick to solve problems, and quick to pick up many different tasks. Keeping her satisfied with life is a full time job, as there is always something she wants to learn or do. Keeping her a child for just a little longer (who wants to talk justice system with a 6 yo) is also very challenging. Having younger siblings that want to keep up with her is darn near impossible.

She does attend Sgt Marge’s daycare once in a while, but I will give you the credit for dealing with her. She can be a handful sometimes, or at least she was, last time I saw her. hmmm… That was seven months ago, okay, maybe I’m on crack.

This is Sgt Marge here aka Mamma..(Grandmother)
Hmmmmm she has been in my daycare occasionally and she is very helpful with the wee ones.Asked her once if she could read while i changed diapers. Well she read a couple of stories to my babies, the babies sat nice and quiet for the stories, because they know she is just another kid.
Savanna wants to know who what where when and why,watching a movie with her is interesting. Adult conversations are not allowed around Savanna she just understands way to much. She loves to spell, so spelling in conversations is out. There are times we spell deliberately in conversation just to give her something to think about and oh my she gets the word. Savanna loves to craft, always in my daycare art binders looking for coloring to do. Savanna love it when we buy her activity books.
Keep up the good work Mom
