Landry Wins Patience

Now this comes as no shock.  Landry, I have told you since before you were a toddler that God has given you the gift of patience.  You rarely every complain about wanting someone (especially me) to hurry up.  You never rush me through a store or during decision making.  Through this, you have taught me to slow down.  I am task oriented and love getting my list checked off.  You teach me that it is okay to go at your own pace and enjoy just the process; even if it is just climbing into a car seat and getting buckled.  You are never in a hurry unless you are competing on a soccer field or swimming pool and you teach us to be yourself and enjoy life.
Therefore, it was very fitting when you were chosen by Mrs. Kime to win the award for Patience at school.  Congratulations.  Thank you for all you teach us and for making me a better person.
