So. . . I have a 3 year old without any patience. Hence our word of the day she learned lately. I decided to explain it to her with situations. Such as, Mom's on the phone so you will have to wait one minute and then I'll help you. Mom is washing dishes, let me get my hands dry and then I will help you. Sometimes 30 seconds is a long time to wait for someone. Also, at daycare there is a new baby; and there hasn't been a baby there in quite a while. They aren't used to having to wait for the baby to be situated before Kim can help them right this second like they want.
We've had a few instances at home and daycare where it's been a success to remind Paige of what patience is. A few where it hasn't. Such as Paige wailing, "But I don't have any patience!" to Kim when she told her just a second. It's hard being three.
