1st day of early morning seminary for Sam. We left a little late. Sam was a bit frazzled but I am proud to say I was patient, kind, understanding & did I mention patient! I was born with less patient than you would find on the tip of a stickpin. I've spent the better part of my life trying desperately to acquire just a small bit of it! This morning was a success in any book. We arrived on time. Sam was not upset after a tense departure. (she forgot to print an assignment & was stressed about running late) She thanked me for taking her and apologized for running late. For that response, I will pack her lunch and fix breakfast to go each morning with a smile. I love the young woman she is becoming. There are moments when I shake my head and think, "What has gotten into you?" Then I remind myself she is a typical hormonal teenage girl. THAT is what's gotten into her.
