Why Is This So Hard?

We had things planned for today, but I rearranged the day for Kaitlyn.  She wasn't sick but wasn't feeling good.  We read and played more and stayed in.  What gave me this idea was Mike's sermon Sunday.  One thing he said stuck with me and that is that we should be kind to those we are around most, and then we can be kind to strangers.  It makes no sense to me, since I find it easier to be around strangers sometimes!  But I am challenging myself to be more patient with my family.
