I have 4 dc. My oldest dd is quiet, of average height and weight and a perfectionist. She is my little mother and a big helper. She just turned 10 in Feb. Dd #2(8.5yo) is very active, average height, very lean. Both girls take Ballet and Irish Step dance as well as piano. This one is strong willed, but getting easier with age. My son is a fireball and all BOY. He's sweet and caring, as well as aggressive and loud. He's everything a little boy should be - he'll be 5 in a few days. Oh, he loves school and will be starting K with us in a month or so. DD #3 is a challenge, she just turned 3 last week. She's the most strong willed of all of them. Demanding and very bright. She will require much training. I love her to bits, she's very affectionate, but can also drive me completely insane! Those are my babies in a nutshell
We have one ds. He is 12. My mom said he was given to me for a reason. Because God knew I could handle it. Our 12 years with him have been full of joy and sorrow. But I would not trade him for the worlds best child. He was a sweat shy child til the age of 3 then he broke of of his shell. He is now very strong willed. We have delt with ODD, ADHD, LD and depression. We have learned to deal with them all and he is growing into a great young man. He has a very caring heart. Willing to help anyone in need. We have some elderly friends that love him dearly and tell us offen how greatful they are for him, when they see him snow blowing their drive or raking their leaves. And when he comes by just to say Hi! He loves anything with an engine and know more about them then alot of grown men do. He has been riding dirt bikes since he was 5 years old. He loves building things. School is not his favorite thing. He says its boring. He doing alot better now that we hs. Our son is a very busy and caring person, just like my parents. Which makes me smile to see them in him.
This is a great thread! I love reading about all the kids! Olivia (9): She is just awesome! She is level headed, logical, sharing, compassionate, intelligent, funny, responsible, and very helpful. She is happy to give to someone else before thinking of herself. She will actually offer to pay for things with her money! lol. She is thoughtful to her friends as she always remembers birthdays. She loves to buy her own gifts and make her own cards. Olivia also keeps me in line at the store. She says, "Come on mommy, before you buy something you don't need!" lol. She takes excellent care of her baby sister. She easily fills in the needs if I am on the a phone call. She will do what is needed without complaining. (well...not complaining most of the time) She amazes me! She isn't perfect...she is strong willed yet obedient. She has learned to work the system. lol. She is not always patient. She is not always in a cheery mood. lol. However, she is a wonderful daughter! I don't know how I would get along without her. She is like a co-homemaker! Aaron (7): He is goofy, funny, active, caring, sensitive, smart, and absentminded in a charming way. lol. He is sure to make us all laugh. He is obedient. He is very careful not to offend the rules of his father...his hero. He perfers to sit back while other work. lol. However, when he does get in the mood to work or is told to he never fails us. He is very thoughtful and loving. He loves to play but hates to loose. He plays hard! He takes sports very seriously. He knows football about as well as any man, woman or child can. lol. He also taught himself how to read. His determination in physical conquest led him to riding a two wheeler at 3! He could dribble at 2. Now at 7, he is ready to conquer the world in anything. Alyssa (2): She is a blend of her brother and sister. She is as strong willed as her sister and as sensitive as her brother. That's fun...NOT. lol. She is full of activity and her mind is always going. She learns quick. She runs fast. She is very determined to sucede at all her toddler endeavors. She is very funny! She is very sweet. She is always laughing. She has a laugh that makes you forget all your troubles. She has a cry that makes you cover your ears! lol. She is such a cute little thing! She loves her big sister. She finds herself at odds with her brother but LOVES his energy and tries to keep up. She is the heart of our home.
