Savannah is 22 years old and is the third born in the family.
Savannah stays busy with the dairy and the farm, taking over all the extra jobs since Jordan and I have moved out. She is the main "kidding" person, with the job of feeding and taking care of all the baby goats that are born on the farm each year. This year she had 50 to take care of and bottle feed, but she did a superb job keeping track of who was who and making sure each one was well taken care of!
She is a favorite with the nieces and does so well with them. You can often hear them walking around asking "Where's Nanna?" She's patient with them and lets them "help" her with just about anything she's doing and is often seen holding or snuggling one of them. She always makes time for them and shows them that they are important to her.
She is a wonderful helper in whatever situation is going on and pitches in and offers help without ever even having to ask. She has a way with the little ones and can keep them entertained and happy very well. Here she is being a bunny puppet for Evangeline!
Savannah started a fudge business a few years back and is still going strong with it. She makes it and sells it at the Farmer's Markets that the family attends. It's the best fudge you will ever taste! If you've got a sweet tooth and a hankering for some fudge, you've come to the right place! Her candle making business has been doing good as well and she has come up with several new scents in this past year.
She is also the main cook for the household, making many of the meals on a daily basis. She is a natural in the kitchen and is so comfortable with trying new recipes and getting them to turn out! She amazes me with her ease of cooking. Many times, I'm giving her a call to ask her about this or that in the kitchen. I love eating Savannah's cooking!
Another new addition for Savannah this year has been getting braces. The first few weeks with them were the hardest I think, but now that they've been on for a little while now, she's getting used to eating with them on.
Savannah is an irreplaceable part of our family and we love her dearly. Her cheerful attitude and her sweet spirit of thankfulness make her a joy to be around.
"Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful."
Colossians 3:12-15
