P is for Patience

P is for Patience, it is something we learn though it is not always one of our strong points.

Children require patience as they are stumbling through the first steps of life learning what is what. You need patience at school to get through what can be a rather boring day when you already know the lesson, or a challenging day when you are trying to figure out what in the world is going on.

The simple act of shopping requires patience, when you take children it can be tricky to decide if it's your patience or theirs that wears thin. Children can be bossy in the store, but when they're the ones ready to go long before you've finished your list it's a bit surprising. 

What do you need patience to achieve?

Hi Laurie,
Great Post! I need patience with myself to finish all the commitments I have made to others. I don't have any patience with being sick, and I was sick for two weeks and unable to do what I needed to do. Now I have a backlog.

I just love the new look of your blog! It's bright and cheery. I remember when I had to shop with young twins in tow and they really taught me the meaning of short list haha.

I'm trying to get ahead far enough I can take time off to spend with the kiddo. We need to work on a few social skills.

I'm glad it's bright and cheery, it's a Easter/Spring theme.

He kept shouting out over the newscaster. The noise was ringing in her ears, making her head pound and her ears build pressure. Blood pressure rising with her temper she picked up the glass and flung it. “What the hell are you doing?” “Trying to get you to shut up.” “You could have killed me.” “It’d have been better than breaking my crystal.” _________________________________________________________________________________ Who is she? Why would she rather kill him then break her crystal? The word is crystal . The limit for this post was 100 words, this one comes in at 63. Click the link to be taken to M3 and the official rules.
