Patience

Lately I think I have become very impatient and this is causing me lots of headache and heartache.

Every night I sit down with my daughter to assist her with her homework and then I go through words she needs to learn for her spelling test on a Friday.
I seem to get very agitated when she cannot remember how to spell the words as I am expecting her to know it as it does not seem so hard to learn.
Last night I just told her if she does not want to learn she can go to bed as she was struggling to remember the spelling of certain words. She then started crying which made me feel bad but I was in foul mood because I felt that I was trying and she was not. She kept on saying sorry daddy I did not mean to make you cross, I will try to do better.

I have always held the belief if I show someone how to do things it should just come naturally and every person I train should be able to do what I can and I get frustrated if I've shown someone something and they still f it up and now I am treating my little 6 year old daughter the same and it is eating me up from the inside.

Hopefully I will learn some patience and tolerance Insha'alla so as not to make my daughter get withdrawn from society as I know what not having faith in ones ability can do to ones confidence.

Anyway here is to Stormers, Liverpool and Everton winning this weekend, I hope you have a stunning long weekend.

Attending my daughters sports day on Monday, should be fun.
