Finding the Happy – Day 11

I’m merging today’s happy with today’s You Capture theme at I Should be Folding Laundry since the prompt inspired images that all make me wonderfully happy.  So, you guys are in for a treat because today’s happy is centered around Quiet and that inspired not one but three pictures.  Three happy’s for this rainy Thursday afternoon.

Quiet is not something I’ll have for much longer.  Olivia will be here in less than two months and then I’ll pray for quiet and the ability to sleep.  Until then, Stephen and I are relishing the quiet we have in the midst of the chaos and stress of getting everything ready.

What does “quiet” mean to me?

It’s my favorite chair, a good book and my cup of tea.  The picture in the background of the woman in pink and the little blonde boy?  My husband and his momma, who is one of the kindest, sweetest women I know.  I am so lucky to have such a wonderful mother-in-law.

It is also my awesome, patient husband resting on the couch in his pjs with his dog, Max.

And it is a bear from my childhood patiently waiting in a nursery window for the next little girl to watch over.

All of this makes me supremely happy and fills me with peace and quiet.  If you get a chance, head over to I Should be Folding Laundry and check out the other You Capture entries, especially hers.  The last shot of her belly made me tear up a little.

As for my theme, happy, what’s your happy for today?

Many wonderful thanks to @tami_moore for the awesomely cute bunnies in the banner!
