10 Tiny Things that Brought me Joy Yesterday
The kids and Angry Bird Space Figurines
There are many tiny things that happen daily which bring me JOY.
Here is a list of ten in no particular order.
- Snapping a picture of the kids with their favourite Angry Bird Space exhibit at the airport.
- Not having to do laundry for a day ( Sunday is NO LAUNDRY DAY!!)
- Getting a haircut.
- Getting to watch a new episode of Vampire Diaries Season 4.
- Watching the final episode of City Hunter with R which he had downloaded onto his iPad.
- Eating chocolate.
- R cooking dinner for the family.
- Getting chauffeured around the whole day ( No driving!!)
- Spending time reading a book.
- Having time to play with my Romeo(DSLR).
What brings you JOY?

Cute kids!!! Do you really do laundry every other day but Sunday? You are so much more industrious than we are!

@Marie,
Yes I do the laundry 6 days a week so there is not so much “backlog” to do and it is cleared faster if you do it almost daily 🙂

Have a great week ahead! 😉

It’s funny how similar the mothers’ happiness source. I would like to add one though – happiness is waking up in the morning not being compeled to get up right away.

Cute shot of your kids! I prefer to do laundry every day, too, rather than wash a mountain of clothes. LOL

Every day with my kids bring me JOY – and frustration – and stress… It’s a hodge podge of emotions but thankful that it’s still mostly joy they bring me. 😀

I tell you what, I would pay someone to do all my laundry. It is the worst! Your list is wonderful. but I laughed about the laundry because I was glad I wasn’t the only one who put that on a list. 🙂 It should be that it brings me peace, joy and a happy dance! 🙂 Great post.

Oh wouldn’t I love to be driven around? hehe. Sadly the boyfriend still doesn’t know how to drive, or at least he’s not yet confident to drive on his own.

Yes! Especially to the no laundry and a haircut. Both would be a dream for me at the moment. 😉

Getting a hair cut is my one big splurge. I always feel SO MUCH better when I walk out of the salon!
