Haven: Yep.
Train attendant: Did Santa come see you?
Haven: Nope. Just Nannie and Grandpa.
treat!
Friday, December 16th, 2011Haven and I dropped off a new, unwrapped toy at The Dairy Godmother, where they were collecting Toys for Tots. Haven didn’t really understand why she couldn’t have the toy, so she got a treat…which made it all better.
draw a person test
Thursday, December 15th, 2011One of the best things about being a parent is watching your kid learn, discover and develop. Crawling, sitting up, learning words and potty training can make a parent boast with pride. Most every kid does these things, but when it is your kid it is magical and scrapbook worthy.

Apparently, there is a test out there that actually exists, appropriately named the Draw-A-Person Test, can provide insight into a child’s intelligence and emotional maturity. (Here’s where one mom talked about her son’s drawing.) Since many of us have kids the same age, I thought I would share.
