Patience....

Sadie: Mom, I want my smoothie.

Me: We have to wait while they make our smoothies.

Sadie: I don't want to wait. I want my smoothie NOW!!

Me: Please don't yell. I'm sorry, but you have to wait a few minutes.

Sadie: I want my smoothie.

Me: I know, but you have to be patient and wait.

Sadie: NO! I don't want to.

Me (at this point I'm just blowing smoke): I know- where's my smoothie? I want my smoothie too, but I have to wait.

Sadie (in a very calm, motherly voice): you have to be patient mom.
