ALSO! I started the 14-day
"Love One Another" challenge. Today's task was "show patience with
someone."
I guess what I could count for that -
Was breakfast. Ha ha!
I
wanted crepes for breakfast, and Mom had made them a special way once and they
turned out good. So I asked for help to make them that way. She was wrapping up
some task on the computer, and explained to me to get the book out,
ingredients, etc.
I was there in the kitchen when she made them, but I didn't
realize that she just made the regular recipe and not the special one :'(
So we
were both under different impressions. :'(
And I was like "Oh I could've
made these myself if I knew you were gonna make the regular recipe!"
And
we realized it was just a lack of communication, and I told her "I'm
sorry.
These are good, really." (Because they were, even though I wanted
the special ones) and I told mom that it was really okay.
I'm happy and
showing patience in both myself and her despite our lack of communicating
clearer. :)
But the task worked. It helped me to LOVE Mom more!!! I love and
really do appreciate her. She is an angel. She is soooo amazing and I love her.
