patience

My younger brother, age 15, had a history paper's introduction to finish tonight. Most of my family don't seem to be very excellent at expressing their very sophisticated idea on paper. So, as usual, I was asked to help him, and ended up spending over 3 hours editing one paragraph. This seems like it would take some kind of endurance, and typically i am not the most patient of people, but I really didnt get frustrated. I actually enjoyed seeing my brother understand how to phrase what he wanted to say, and let himself use his insanely highfalutin language skills. For some reason I find a crazy amount of patience when it comes to teaching or editing...

Just a few more years, and maybe I can have my own classroom! THAT would be awesome! I can't wait...
