Patience

I am sitting in Madeleine's room with her and Andrew. Mady has a toy that is 10 half circles that you can connect and make a tower, snap together and make 5 balls or you can nest the balls inside each other (10 different sizes). Andrew figured out he could hide a small ball under each half circle. As quickly as he gets a ball under one though, Mady takes the ball to eat.

Andrew keeps telling her over and over "Mads, you have to be patient sistee!"

Except Mads has already started to master the art of ignoring all of her brothers (which is probably a good thing). So, we are instead just going in circles. Andrew places balls under, Mady takes them, Andrew tells her to be patient. Andrew places ball under, Mady takes them......

I must say, Andrew is being pretty patient and he is politely telling her to be patient over and over instead of being mean to her.
