moments of joy

i just read the loveliest post from photographer~writer~soul-searcher fiona on catching the small joys and letting them radiate out into life.

it inspired me to begin a new journal, and aligns with what i think about when i think about beauty.

for now, some recent moments of joy + beauty.

shared + tear-filled laughter.

spotting a snow rabbit with twig-whiskers on top of a giant snowbank.

peeling apples for crumble and watching the long curly red apple peels fall into the garbage.

the pale-pink sky at sunrise.

the way atlas appropriates the process of towel-drying for his own pleasure by sticking his head into the towel over and over so i’ll continue to rub his head.

an unexpected + delightful voicemail.

handing a pile of colorful + cheerful postcards to the mailman.

do you want to capture your own small moments of joy?

if you feel inspired to share, i would so love to receive them.

    Joy is finally seeing sweet kittys face after an hour of searching the house for her.

    Tammy: Sun shadows! Yes. I love them on the snow too. Enjoy your fresh air!

    Fiona: Thank YOU. I am about to start my new notebook :)

  5. Such wonderful themes to consider! I’m just starting a new photo series at my blog –This Morning… just a photo, very few words, all about celebrating the beauty of new day. I needed some new inspiration for blogging, and I love mornings–so a good combo, maybe? ;o) Happy Days, dear Elizabeth ((HUGS))
