Do you not post on IG anymore? Love your work. It’s inspiring me as I start doing this.

Yeah! Your techo kaigi! And yes Seamus is the little puppies name.

How r u … I love watching ur videos and drawings

So glad to see you back! Miss your videos! I'm inspired to get a Hobonichi this year but don't know if it's truely worth the price 😆

I have missed your videos. I am glad you are back again. I am sorry for what you went through the last couple years. I wish you and your husband well with your journey. I am moving to Hawaii from Colorado in May next year. What city do you live in?

Thanks so much for uploading the stream on here. I loved seeing your Kaigi!

I had no idea you were doing twitch! So glad you posted this and I’m following now!

Yay!!!! Thank you for sharing it on YT!!

😍😍

❤ it took my husband and I - 7 years- to have our first child. I know this is an older video but I’m just seeing this on in particular. I like to watch and rewatch your planner videos. Please know you’re in my prayers. And miracles happen every moment. Sending love and encouragement. Peace and blessings.

Love and hugs, Joy! I so identify with the pressure family puts on you to have a baby, and how painful it is to feel like you have to keep explaining. Also, the depression during Covid isolation, has, in my case, put me on meds that don’t help. Journaling has helped me more than meds, and I hope it helps you.

Where did u get ur sticker book

Ur r loved by all

Oh how wonderful to see this come up in my suggested playlist. Hope you're doing ok.

I’m sorry you and Don are going through this. Thank you for sharing. I also just turned 37 and got out of a 5 year relationship and am sad because I want a family and children and seems like everyone around me is having children. I love your hobonichi planning videos and hope you are inspired to plan more. I’ve been watching your videos for few years and always like when you post.

Those are such insensitive people. I’m glad you’re back.

Amazing articulate thoughtful empathetic warm journaling that pulled me in from start to finish ❤️

Oh Joy, I had no idea what pain you have had. I know this pain as I also struggle with depression and I am single and never married or had children. It is so hard to watch friends and relatives get married and have children. I tried to act like it didn't bother me and became the best aunt I could be. But it still hurt. The most hurtful part are the words from family who put pressure on us. They have no idea what pain they are causing. I am so sorry that you have to hear this from the people who are supposed to love you the most. I am glad you are finding peace. You deserve peace and acceptance for who you are. You are so important, whether you have children or not. You are important because you exist. You are a bright light that needs to shine. I am so glad you are back on KZbin. I look forward watching your videos! 💜💚💙

Thanks for sharing and I wondered where you went. It is a hard time to lose those we love. I lost my mother in Sept 2020 and that was hard. Only to discover we have family we did not know we had as our grandfather was married before and his granddaughter from that marriage did a family tree and finally connected with us. Not sure why I tell you this story except for you both to expect the unexpected as we do not know what life will bring us and you bring a lot of joy to many of us in the planner community and so happy to came back to us. Love and Blessings to you and your family.

Thank you so much for sharing your story with us! And for also sharing so much love to the stationery community through your Twitch streams! 🥰 We’ll be here for you if you want additional enabling and support! 😏

Thank you so much for sharing !! I love your videos always <3

I love how your hands are so animated when you speak!!

I missed your voice ❣️

Thank you for sharing your story with us. I cried. My nickname is Ritz. Given to me by my late father to died of an aneurysm when I was 12 and he was 33. I have an uncle Jeff who recently passed away. I hope you can continue to find joy in life. 💕 (Joy. Get it? 😅 I'll see myself out.)

So glad you’re back....We have missed you...

Joy, yours has always been one of my favorite KZbin channels .. I come by often to see if you’ve posted new content. Imagine my surprise upon seeing that you’d had. First, I am so sorry for your loss. 😞 To lose two people who mean so much to you, in such close proximity had to have been devastating. The fact that you are here to share, is a true testament of your strength. May GOD be with your loved ones always. You have my deepest condolences. 🙏🏽 Second, I am so sorry to hear about your struggles with starting a family. As a “later in life” mom of one miracle/rainbow baby (big girl now), believe me I know all about the heartbreak. I’m sure you and your husband have tried everything under the sun, but if you haven’t tried Clomid and AI, please do. It is much less expensive than IVF and definitely gives you a greater chance at conception. NEVER stop trying. Last, your bout with depression. I am so glad that you have been able to find what helps you cope with that and are feeling better. Please know you have so much love and support from your peoples behind the scenes. US! Please continue to pursue the things that make you happy and continue to heal. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers and you will be a mom, just continue to believe. GOD bless and it’s so good to hear your sweet voice again! Stay safe!! ❤️🙏🏽❤️

In Cantonese we say “add oil” as a way to keep going and to persevere (usually in a chant.) Add oil Joy! I hope 2021 turns out to be everything you want it to be.

So sorry regarding the challenges of starting a family and losing your cousin. Life definitely throws a lot of challenges at us, but know that you are not alone and there are many people who cheer you onward, whether they know you personally or not. I wish you well and I hope conversations about infertility could be more normalized and not cause so much pain to people. A lot of folks struggle... we all have our challenges in life and we have to just do our best. Thanks for sharing a great message - to keep going and make the best of the time we have! Sending ❤️

Oh my heart 💕 so sorry Joy 🥲 what a trying time for your family. Very sorry for all the loss and struggles. You’re still the best story teller. Sending warm hugs and hope you all are finding much comfort in each other.

Thank you for sharing your story...may God bless you and your family!!!

Your video was beautiful. I want to give you a big virtual hug. I’m so glad you’re back and please know that we’re here for you to support you. ❤️
