Kids & the Marshmallow Test

To help us all remember Elder Uchtdorf's Talk. I have posted the test.... but here are some lines from his talk and also a link to the talk.

Patience is more than waiting.

Often our valley's will be better understood from the mountains of our future. (paraphrased)

Patience means active waiting and enduring. It means staying with something and doing all that we can—working, hoping, and exercising faith; bearing hardship with fortitude, even when the desires of our hearts are delayed. Patience is not simply enduring; it is enduring well!

I love the definition of patience...so many more layers to it.

Oh that is so funny! I read Uchtdorf's article to Jack today. No problem for him. He doesn't like marshmallows! :) I don't think he got it.
