What Brings You Joy?

Loves, what brings you joy lately? We’re currently in a rather busy season of life, so I am choosing to focus on the moments of light (instead of what I want to focus on: the big feelings of overwhelmingness that we are experiencing over here), which means giving a little extra attention to the things that brighten my day.

Right now for me, it’s:

  • Seeing all the greenery that is popping up everywhere, especially on the farm and at our house in town.

  • Listening to Anna tell me about her day at school, always starting with “Guess what?”

  • Watching PJ water the plants on the back porch.

  • Drinking less during the week. I feel SO much better the next morning.

  • Hearing Allan talk about XYZ animal he learned about on The Discovery Channel.

  • The light in our bedroom this time of year.

  • When Riah wakes up before anyone else and makes his way down the stairs to spend a few minutes with me on the couch.

  • Waking up to a beautiful morning.

What about you? What has brought you joy lately (even if it’s something small)?
