Moments of joy: a gift beyond measure:
Flowers from my daughter and son-in-law, who live far away and send the nicest bouquets of flowers when we least expect it. Thank you, dear Daughter and Son-in-law.
Scenes of water and trees during the warm months.
Pictures of our gentle giant Kinu. Despite his enormous size, he was a sweet dog who had no idea why some strangers were reluctant to come close.
Mr. D., the sweet little dog my younger daughter rescued.
Easter weekend made 4 years since she brought him home. (Thanks for your kind heart, dear Daughter.)
Scenes from summer, like the day lilies that will bloom profusely this July.
Time spent on the farmhouse verandah.
And moments like this one below: I was signing books at St. George’s Anglican Church in Toronto and a little girl, Tatyana, marched over and asked me to take a photo with her…

Good advice. We all need to find joy in the little things in life.
That’s for sure.
Joyful moments, indeed!
Indeed, Laurie.
I want to come and live with you!
You made me smile!
I could live on that veranda! Mr. D and Kinu are so cute. Thanks for sharing your wonderful photos, Cynthia.
You’re very welcome, Jill. I love verandahs. Where I grew up, most houses had them.
I would love to come and sit on your verandah. These sort of precious moments with home, family, loved pets and the beauty of nature are what make life worth living.
Well said, Chloris. Thank you.
Lovely reminders of joy and a good life. Thanks for sharing Cynthia! 🙂
Indeed, and your words are reminder that a good life is not a spotless life.
Well stated!
Flowers are lovely, but I am loving Kinu the most. What a darling.
Kinu: a total darling. Hope your doggies are doing well.
Ruling the roost. So to bark.
Made me smile. Thanks.
One of your recommends as I recall?
It’s a nice bouquet ! And that’s sure, we all need joy and love too 😉
Lovely & moving~
Thank you, Cindy.
What a nice daughter you have!
I remember these joyful pictures, this post is uplifting 🙂
Thanks, Andrea. I’m glad.
I hope you’ll find many more moments of joy!
Thank you! Wishing you the same.
Kinu and Mr. D look like very sweet dogs. I know you must miss him very much. Our time with our animal companions is all too short. I’m glad your daughter could rescue Mr. D.
Lavinia, you’re right. We do still miss him. He was a real presence in our home, not just for us, but for relatives and friends too. Our two daughters are very pet-friendly people, bless their hearts.
There is so much here that makes me smile. Thank you for sharing these glimpses with us.
Your beautiful post was a very pleasant way to spend this evening – just loved seeing Kinu and Mr. D. The veranda is a place that is charming and says “welcome home” – a wonderful place to enjoy a quiet afternoon. Have a great weekend Cynthia.
You are an amazing person Cynthia .. How wonderful to think as you do. Thank you for sharing this .. And I could live on that verandah too! 😃
Thank you very much, Julie. To tell the truth: I didn’t always stop to honour those small moments of joy. I started counting my blessings and moments of joy as survival strategies. I recommend them highly.
Love those pics! It’s always good to treasure those moments of joy, Cynthia. 🙂
That’s for sure, Kev.
So love the mother daughter and you at the book signing. Wish everyone moments of joy.
