Is Your Child an " Old Soul "?

we're all old souls.
i'm probably one of the most woo-woo people on this site, but i have to say, i find the 'old soul' theory pretty eye-rolling.
souls come into this world with different agendas. doesn't have anything to do with being an old soul or a newly minted one.

Yes, We call her "Grandma".

Her vocabulary is that of an 18th century English woman..

She says things like, "Pinkies up ladies".. "Harlots!", "I need to go to the neighborhood cobbler, my shoes need to be repaired." It cracks up up. She has used this type of language since she was a very young child.

She has the worlds collection of loose leaf tea, teapots and all of the old lady accessories. She loves and admires doilies but is too embarrassed to use any. In college she had an old fashioned Quilt instead of a comforter like everyone else.

She enjoys old fashioned cookies, hard candies. When she discovered Lorna Doon cookies at college, she called to ask "why we never had purchased any?". "I told her because we all still had all of our teeth and did not need cookies that could be gummed."
Her response? "How utterly rude!" Hee, hee.

She will tsk, tsk me and my husband and tells us, to "behave properly".
We adore her. She keeps us in check. I am in awe or her.

I see my oldest as an old soul though not particularly mature. I think it is interesting how other's define old soul. My oldest lives and has always lived his age but he thinks like he was born a hundred years ago.

The other three have completely different personalities and different from each other as well.

My older son is. My younger son is not.

My eldest and my second eldest,ages 12 and 8. they are the smartest girls in the world :)

My son is. He is amazing at reading social clues. Very smart and perceptive, yet, a real sweetie.

My old soul is my youngest. She reads people. She understands human nature. She is wise beyond her years.

My middle son is defintely an old soul.
