18 Little Joys I've Discovered Latest
We’re in the midst of a busy season, and days go by in a blur. Yet, this season has been so special and I never want to forget these sparkly, cozy December days.
Back in June, I shared 18 little joys I had experienced. I recently re-read that list and was transported back to six months ago remembering some of those joys that felt so small at the time. But they were so big; some are core memories of summer now. So today I want to share 18 more little joys. Big and small, these things have been bright spots in my day, so I thought I’d share them with you.
