Patience. Something I need to work on! I'm sure there are times when everyone feels they need to be more patient. It's so easy to find fault in others to place the blame. Seems as of late, I'm having more of those 'oh, bad mommy...' moments. My daughter, being at that very impressionable age, has definitely taken after me in regards to my impatience (part of my type A personality). Most preschoolers are naturally impatient at this age. In this case though, I think it's safe to say it's my fault too. Being a parent sheds light on many things and changes your life indefinitely. For me, I'm forced to scrutinize my reactions, my feelings, my behaviors. How do I want my children to get along with others? What kind of people do I want my children to be as adults?  I want the to be kind, smart, brave, patient people. People who are happy and positive. That starts with me :) My kids make me want to be a better person. I love those crazy minions! Hehehe :)
