Is there anything about a two year old that doesn’t test patience??

I have yet to find it. She always wants more. When I want less. Then I want more. & she wants none at all. & sometimes, I am just too tired to be patient with her. But I am trying. It’s not her fault I am tired. (usually)

Lack of patience makes me a bad mama. & I was not born with a heck of a lot of it.

So I am trying to find more. Deep down inside.

It’s there.

Nicole - oh my gosh. this just hit home. i was having one of those weeks too girl. i love this. love you!

Stephanie - Sounds like you’re having a tough time at the moment Shawna. I hope it passes soon x

laura - i feel for you everytime i read your posts. my kids are 2 years apart as well, and i had such little patience for my 2 year old son when my daughter was born, i still feel guilty, but the little dude loves me, so i must not be all bad. somehow, shawna, you just seem to acquire more patience, or else you loose the need to control so much. little things are just that. take a breathe, say a prayer and grab a squeeze.

Jessica Sliman - This was perfectly timed for me. I struggle with patience each and every day…hour….minute…lately with my two and half year old. I keep telling myself that this stubbornness, this strong personality, this character…is all going to be a blessing later in life. It’s just hard at two, right?

Meghan - The sermon at my church last week was on patience. One of those moments when you feel like something greater is trying to give you a great big elbow in the rib cage? Yeah. Working on mining that out from deep down right now too… with the kids, with not being a whole family 5 days a week, with trying to decide what to do with the house, the coffee pot that just. won’t. brew. faster. the list is endless. I feel ya!
