127. Stability. It seems like every time I post, I am thankful for some of the same things. How wonderful it is to have a stable home, a stable income, a stable husband, a stable schedule...I wouldn't say my life is "predictable" by any means, but it is stable.

128. Quiet mornings. I love just being at home - laundry washing, baby playing quietly at my feet, reading about things that interest me online, drinking sparkling water...

129. The fact that I'm grown up. I get a kick out of finding old friends on Facebook, except that they are all still in the party stage. Some of them still live with their parents. Here I am, with a husband of 5 years, a sweet baby who is almost 1 year old, and we've owned a house for a year and a half. I am so thankful that I chose the path that I did.

130. My house. As chaotic as it is without a kitchen, I. AM. SO. EXCITED. to have a new kitchen! Bryan is working as fast as he can on it. Everyone commends me for being so patient through this whole renovation, but I can't see myself being anything other than patient. All he does is work his job, then he comes home and works on the house until really late. What a sacrifice! I can't be anything other than patient, knowing that he is putting everything into this to get it done for our family!

131. Internet Friends. hahah. I love all the blogs I read, I love connecting with people through the internet. I love my real life friends, but I've really grown to cherish my online relationships too.
