Line 91:
While in France working on a project on the origins of nectar, Savannah engaged in a brief dalliance with [[Gustave Delven]], a French historian and photographer and Champs Les Sims resident.  When that ended, however, she married Andrew Cheesman, a reserve forward for the Sim City Llamas soccer team and a former high school classmate. Andrew had pursued her from afar ever since high school. Together the two are currently (as of this writing) raising seven children: the aforementioned Imsety and Satis, adopted from Egypt, and five biological children -- [[Fanon:AJ Cheesman|Andrew Cheesman Jr.]] (AJ), a young adult; [[Fanon:Sage Cheesman|Sageblossom Margaret]] (better known as Sage) and [[Fanon:Sierra Cheesman|Sierramyst Jolina]], teenagers; [[Fanon:Skylar Cheesman|Skylar Róisín]], a child; and Sawyer Nathan, a toddler. Sage Margaret was named in honor of Savannah's aunt, the prolific novelist Margaret Plumb, who died when Savannah was a teenager, and Sawyer Nathan was named in honor of her father. Her last two children, Skylar and Sawyer, were born in Hidden Springs, while her older three were born in Sunset Valley. 
 
Savannah inherited a curious mix of her mother's practical streak and her father's impulsiveness.   She seems to have adopted her father's laissez-faire, hands-off approach to parenting, in her words, "allowing her children to be who they're going to be." She has, however, been heavy-handed at times, such as forcing her oldest son to attend college. So far, this approach has yielded mixed results. Her daughter Sage wrote her a three-page letter begging her to spend more time with her and her siblings. This worked -- for awhile. A judge in Hidden Springs excoriated her for this approach in regards to her daughter, Sierra's, behavior. A polymath like her mother, Savannah has high expectations for her children; indeed, she has clashed with her husband over their education.  While she wanted to send them to specialized boarding schools dovetailing with their interests, he wanted to educate them in the local public schools.
 
The family currently splits its time between Sunset Valley, Hidden Springs, and Moonlight Falls and owns property in all three locations.
