I recently moved to Las Cruces and I am the mother of a "spirited child". I learned this term while reading a book by Mary Sheedy Kurcinka. It means a child that is more intense, sensitive, persistent, and energetic than the average child. Some might call her "difficult" or "strong-willed", but I prefer to use the term "spirited" because it gives a fuller picture. She is simply "more" of everything both good and difficult. Anyway, I am in great need of the company of other moms who have similar children. My daughter is 2; however, anyone with children from infancy through elementary school is welcome.

Being the mom of a spirited child can be both immensely satisfying and frustrating.  I am hoping that this group will be a support through both the good and difficult times!
