Amanda has patience for Jigsaw puzzle Finally

To some mummies, it is just a normal milestone. For me this is kinda of breakthrough because she is never patient and can't sit longer to form something. I was overwhelmed that she can form these smaller pieces at a very short period of time. She made the pieces once with help and the second time she did it all alone. The third time, she lost her patience and throw tantrums after.
Tried buying her Lego Mosaics but she did not have the determination. Sometimes when I think back, was it me who ruin it? When she was two, I always have little patience doing art and craft with her. It is either she spills the paint or she drew the table. I wasn't patient to encourage her or cheer her on. It seems that now she is so discouraged when she fail in the slightest thing and she is so fearful that she will get scolded. Was it me? I kept asking myself. Now I always tell her that it is perfectly fine when things dun turn beautiful as much as long as u knew that you have tried your best. I dunno if she really understood what I mean. The only thing that I feel fortunate about is that I am there for her day and night, rain or shine.
Anyway, Dada, Good Job! Good effort!
