Kids were taking their time at the store...taking forever to use the bathroom or not keeping up or touching things they weren't supposed to.  My patience was wearing thin.  I snapped at Emma.  Holy Spirit convicted me and I apologized...
Mama: Emma, I'm sorry for being impatient with you.
Emma: Yeah, I was just about to tell you that...you are being way too impatient with your kiddos.

Fast forward to bedtime prayers...
