While I am not the role model for patience, I know how I picture it, and this is what I see:
Patience is...
Being cooped up indoors because it's pouring down rain,
So you count the drops on the window to pass the time until the rain stops...
Patience is...
Waiting for just the right photo opportunity.
Patience is....
Replanting after the summer frost,
Because the wait is well worth the reward.
Patience is...
Making sure you have enough snacks while waiting for the fish to bite.
Patience is...
Waiting for whatever is going to come around the bend.
Patience is...
Knowing that even though it seems like winter will never end,
Spring will always make an appearance.
The key to everything is patience. You get the chicken by hatching the egg, not by smashing it.

I love your picture/word posts, Annie. Beautiful!
Such beautiful pictures and thoughts, Annie.
The dog really stands out to me because you know all he wants to do is get out there and play... you can see it in his eyes. This is really easy to relate to!

Of course the farmer in me just LOVED this part the best!
Great post, Annie!
Patince is something I desire to develop in my life too.
I really like your photo dictionary of patience
I love that last line! And the photos were beautiful. I just wanna hug Boz everytime I see a photo of him :-)
This is beautiful, both in the words and the photos. Thank you.
But you get the omelet by smashing the egg, well breaking it gently so you don't get shells in your omelet.
The train track picture...spoke the words.
Waht a great photo/word journal on patience!
I really enjoyed the wonder of it all.

I love this. It's like reading a picture book.
