These kids...always teaching me :)

One morning, a couple weeks ago, Roman spent over 2 hours putting various puzzles together.  There was Lightening McQueen, Dora, Peanuts...and on and on.  Every time he started a new one, I became more and more impressed by his patience and focus.  And every time he finished another one, I could see his confidence building.  "Puzzle master extraordinaire!!"  I would say as I passed his diligent work.  He smiled big, and I was reminded of the pattern that hard work plus patience, often equals ability and self assurance.
