I saw this tag over at Katiescottagebooks and it looked like the perfect post for Thanksgiving!
To participate, share 15 small joys in your life and tag 5 bloggers who bring you joy.
15 of My Favorite Small Joys
- Starting the morning with a cup of coffee & a book on theology
- Group chats that share silly memes and deeper, personal life experiences in the same hour
- Watching the sun rise or set
- Listening to the perfect song at the perfect time
- Also, playing music when no one else is around to hear how good (or not) it comes out
- When all of the bookshelves in the library are accurately edged (if you know you know)
- New pens
- Alpacas. And/or okapi. Honestly, most animals.
- Driving by the lake with the windows down
- When my sister’s cat comes to me without any bribing
- The smell of fresh, home-baked bread
- The never-ending quality of my TBR list (okay, this is both a joy and a source of dread, but we’re focusing on the joy today)
- My nephews
- The enthusiasm in the barista’s voice at my favorite local coffee shop when I ask about specialty drinks
- Sunshine (when it isn’t glaring or burning)
5 Blogs that Bring Me Joy
My list ended up super random – but totally me! I am so thankful for the connections I have made through blogging, and for the opportunity to remember and share these little things that bring me joy. Thank you for reading and being a part of this book blog community.
Also, I tag anyone who wants to talk about the things they are thankful for to do this post! It’s fun and it put me in a good mood. I think we could all probably use more things like this.
Until the next chapter,

What a great list! I also find joy in so many of these things – new pens, fresh bread, and beautiful library shelves (although, probably for slightly different reasons!). Thank you for so carefully cultivating your blog – I’ve enjoyed it so much! And thank you for listing my blog as one that brings you joy. That means a lot to me 🙂
