Joy List Monday
♥ a weekly ritual ♥
a reminder to stop and pay attention to the little beauties and graces that make life magical and to set aside time for gratitude each day
♥ sunshine .... I know I say this each Monday, I can not tell you how much I love the sunshine. I get tired of cloudy days really fast. November is usually a cloudy month for us here in Wisconsin. We have had sun, sun and more sun
♥ my boys .... getting a hug out of the blue in a public place by my oldest and hearing
"I love you mom" whispered in my ear
♥ a new recipe I made Saturday night and it was a HIT with all the boys in my house
♥ my youngest son is excited to plant tulips with me this week
♥ enjoying time with friends on a fun Autumn hike
Those are great JOYS! I am loving our weather and sun this time of year, too. I keep waiting for the shoe to drop...or rather the SNOW to drop, I guess. lol I only want one more nice warm Saturday so we can do our annual girls Christmas house walk here.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week. xo Diana
All wonderful things to be happy about ♥ Happy Monday ♥
ReplyDeleteWe have had lots of sun too. No rain in quite awhile, and more sun to come. Something I always appreciate, especially in cold weather.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you've been fully savoring the joys, Carla!!
ReplyDeleteI am with you 1 million percent on the sunshine. What a blessing it's been!!
Have a wonderful week and keep savoring!!
Nothing beats a hug from a son. Enjoy your warm days. In case you've heard about the earthquake in NZ, it hasn't affected the area I live in luckily, but devastating for those in Kaikoura.
ReplyDeleteI do love what's on your joy list. Sunshine makes me happy too. You have such good boys.
ReplyDeleteHow nice that your son will garden with you next week and plant tulips. They are such a pretty flower. And the whispering 'I love you mom" got to me right away. It tells me, all is right with the world.
ReplyDeleteWishing you warm and cozy November days, Carla.

ReplyDeleteOh Carla, what a precious list of joy! Getting a hug out of the blue is always a sweet blessing {{smiles}}

Carla, you just can't help but dance to that song, can you? It's got such a fun beat to it.

What a lovely list! And I like the shot too.
ReplyDeleteA sweet and joyful Monday indeed! So many things to be thankful for! Love how the boys aren't afraid to give their mommy a hug in public, precious moments for sure! Do tell what the new dish was that was a hit with your family! Hugs to you today Carla :)
ReplyDeleteIt is fun to think about the tulips popping up in Spring! Glad you enjoyed an Autumn hike!
ReplyDeleteThese always make me happy. I miss the sun when it's not shining. We're having a cloudy day today and I feel more tired, you're right about that. How sweet about your boys! What new recipe did you make?
ReplyDeleteHappy and joy filled week my friend. Enjoy.
