i didn't realize just how impatient of a person i am. was it today or yesterday i gave ellie some words of advice, told her if she doesn't learn to adapt, she's going to have a difficult time in this world. now that i read it back to myself, it doesn't really sound like advice, does it? more like a warning or prophecy. anyways, i should take up that "advice" as well.

wait wait wait. i always tell the girls to wait. i want to teach them the virtue of patience. don't want to raise instant gratification kids. i don't know why waiting is so stressful upon me. i want the bugs gone now...i want my car back now...i want my bathroom ready now...i want the baby out now. i'm just tired of waiting.
