I'm catching up on my reading when PatientPatty walks up and taps me on the shoulder.
PatientPatty: Mama.
Awesomeness: Yes, honey.
PatientPatty: Mama, can I wait for a little while?
Awesomeness: Um, what? I don't think I heard you right. What do you need?
PatientPatty: I want to wait for just a little while.
Awesomeness: Yeah....well, you can wait all you want. Go play.
She does. I get back to my reading. Ten minutes later:
PatientPatty: Mama.
Awesomeness: Yes, Patty.
PatientPatty: Can I wait just a little while longer?
Awesomeness: Knock yourself out.
PatientPatty: I'm very good at waiting.
Awesomeness: Yes you are.

It takes talent to be good at waiting. ;)
Agreed! She is the best at waiting. I don't even know what she was waiting for...
Wow, that girl has some awesome patience!!! Maybe I could borrow some!
I found out on the way home what this was about:
Yesterday, when I got home from work, she had just finished eating dinner, but must not have gotten her fill. She asked me if she could have "chips n' cheese" (nachos) and I told her that she would have to wait for dinner tomorrow.
I had completely forgotten about that.
She is currently enjoying chips n' cheese. She is very good at waiting. :)
