16. Favorite holiday? Thanksgiving! I like the food...
17. What do you do to vent anger? Huff and puff. Get quiet. Sometimes write out an angry letter (which I throw away). Of course, what should I be doing? Well, you asked what I DO...

29. What did you do last night? made some lasagna, and while it was baking, Jeff and I went to look at fabric for curtains (he's such a sweetie)
30. Who is your role model? There are many! But I'll just say, my mom. I've grown to appreciate her more the older I get. Her patience and goodwill toward everyone is amazing. I remember being critical of her growing up, but now I see how her spirit shines through and how her training has helped me be kinder and more giving to others! Especially now as I'm about to be a mom myself, I'm beginning to understand a little more all she's done for me.

Emily, thanks for your last comment on my post! You really miss me?? :) I'm a slacker in the blogging department, but I love to read and comment on y'alls posts. I'll try to do better...not too much going on in our little world right now :)
Yes, I miss you!! I keep checking your blog and there are the same cute pictures of Gracie...but nothing new. :( Would love to see pics of your house...the fields near it...or whatever you feel like posting!
Thank you for doing this! #30 made me tear up too! I feel the same way about both our moms! We were so critical of them growing up, but what great role models they are now! Your mom is so incredibly loving and generous. You definitely have that as well: what a great mom you're going to be.
Jeff is amazing! Fabric shopping? Did you have to bribe him with the Lasagna? Kris will go, but give me a time limit and usually go to the electronics department or go and sit in the car!
Can't wait to read Karanena's responses. So far, none of us wear socks that often...and none of us were listening to music: I thought you might have been.
Thank you so much for posting this: I've been waiting on you and Keefer
Your mom is definitely an example too...she never complains about her sight and is always so cheerful. We're lucky to have the moms we do!
Funny that we don't wear socks! Also none of us were listening to music. I almost NEVER listen to music...hear it all day, why at home too?
Well...Jeff was kind of interested in the curtains, being a designer, but he did get bored after a while!
Thanks for doing this chickie! Your mom is becoming a real role model for me too.
I have to agree on your Mom being a role model. Anyone who raises 5 children with four being boys, patient, extremely generous and ALWAYS smiling no matter what is a role model to me! Truly a woman's whom the love of God shines through.
