Lately, my family has been really busy. With swim team in full swing, starting a summer internship at my church, preparing violin pieces, trying to finish school and get in my writing, it can get a little overwhelming.
Because of that, my good friend Emma and I decided to post happy lists on our blogs this week (you can find her post here)! God works all things for good, and it's important to find the joy in the chaos - it's always there.
I hope that you enjoy this little list of things that have made me happy recently, and I'd love for you to share your own down in the comments below!
My happy list:
- Pressing wildflowers from my yard 
- Receiving books in the mail 
- Little toads 
- Swimming in a competitive relay 
- Sister sleepovers 
- Reading lots of poetry 
- A certain mischievous kitten 
- Mowing our grass 
- Interning at my church 
- Eating popsicles 
- Winning a book giveaway 
- Trying Bible verse mapping 
- Funny chats with friends 




This was such a lovely idea! Me and my sister love listening to Josiah Queen’s music🫶
I love this, Molly! 💜
