It will take over that patch if you let it with or without help from your 3 year old. It will be quite a job to remove it in a few years... In other words cut it back by a third or half and shape it to your desire and stay on top of it.

This is what mine looked after about six years without hard pruning. It took a few days to cut it out and dispose of it last year. I'm in the Atlanta area so I can imagine what it would do in Savannah. It took over several square feet of the stone terrace - it must love the cracks between the flagstones.
