We have had Lizzie most school days since she was a few weeks old, she is 4 now, will be going to Kindergarten in the fall. Her other GM just retired, so takes her often, since she lives closer to DD. She is so delightful, we will miss her. Her older brother, 15, lives with us full time, since he can't get along with his stepfather. Sos sad, but he is also a joy. Lots of the teen angst, here, but it works. Quilting time can be hard to find, but dh does a lot with Lizzie, so that helps. dgs is learning to quilt, dgd helps by picking up pins, toting stuff back and forth, etc. She likes to sit in my la while I'm sewing.
