So little of patience.....And such a long way to go

As Ammu embarks on her journey of learning about new things and taking on new scenes,my patience as a mother is sorely tested time and again.I often wonder, how our parents managed to answer our questions without ever tiring.As a mother,it is a great joy to catch my little one being so curious and inquisitive and wanting to know about the world around her,every passing minute.
Every time we go out,she points out to each and every passing vehicle and person and keeps asking "Idhu" meaning "tell me what this is called?".I always walk out with a water of bottle with me to give her some,when she is thirsty.Most of the time,even I end up drinking from it,to keep on answering all her questions.
As a mother,I find myself becoming more patient and prepared to tackle her questions and look at everything from her view.The world and the people in it seem rather exciting and I always try to give bright views of everything we see daily.She already knows Hyundai, Santro, Maruti, Auto,Bus, in which her Appa goes, and  is steady on her way up the learning curve.
All of us as parents are having to remind ourselves that the patience which we so invest by answering these questions of our little ones,will not only help them be more informed and take in their surroundings.It will also have the effect of giving us the chance to relearn things and take note of some,which we took for granted before.
To give me and all the other moms in this world a little more patience,is one of the top things I ask for in my prayers list and I am sure you will understand why :)
