Are we there yet?

Working with kids makes me always question the source of patience. I doubt it's an inborn trait. But who came up with the idea anyways? I guess should thank God for the creation of patience, cuz it sure didn't come from any human mind. Think about it... how many times do you go on a road trip and have someone say "are we there yet?". I sure feel bad for the Pioneer parents who had a 4 month wagon train.... Those kids must have kept them on edge! If I was a parent back then, I'd only last an hour into the trip, then I'd be pulling off the side of the trail, opening the back hatch and sending the kids walking home. Or maybe kids back then had more patience, and it's become a degenerative trait nowadays. Who knows... Makes you wonder though huh?
