November was a dark month here. I found myself, last week, searching for joy. Sometimes naming it helps to let in the light. Here are some things that are bringing me joy of late:

- Writing get-aways with dear friends
- Kristin Cashore has a new book coming out soon!
- Delicious pies on Thanksgiving
- that lovely view of the moon that we had
- letters from students:


I hope there’s lots of joy in your life today!
