[@wendieHM]

When I wake up in the morning and my 77 year old feet hit the floor, once again God has brought me joy! And of course, I thank Heaven for Kevin!❤️

[@elkahmae1283]

I love it…. Thank heaven for kevin!! Thats great!!😃

[@chrisfry436]

YES!! I always tell the Lord "Thank you for the wake up call, lets make this a great day"!!

[@teresaa1189]

You bring us joy, Kevin. Thank you for sharing with us your delicious recipes and other tasks you do with a smile. Watching your videos has a calming effect on your viewers. 😊

[@kimberlypruitt161]

Kevin, I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say that one of the joys in my life is watching your videos. You are such a sweet and kind soul. Thank you for sharing.

[@cindygarrison6338]

Spending time with you brings my husband and me joy! Thanks for your variety, and sharing your talents and home. And especially your lovely personality!

[@carolavant3778]

So many things bring me joy! As a senior citizen who was raised in the Southern US, tea cakes have long been a welcome addition to my table. I also spent a great deal of time with an Aunt from England who married into my family. She brought me so much joy as a little girl because she taught me the pleasure of afternoon tea! My son brings me joy, and has since the moment he came into this world! Nature, gardening, dogs and cats bring me joy, and raising chickens bring me a surprising amount of joy! One of my hens has gone broody and we're expecting her to start hatching her chicks any day now! Friends and family are another great source of joy, and Kevin, you are a friend that I so look forward to sharing time with! Thank you!

[@tayliztube]

Watching your videos brings me JOY!

[@hilkkahirvonen4831]

That is just the WORD I used JOY 😊

[@charlottea.cavatica8423]

Oh dear Kevin, spending time watching your video is always a treat . Hearing even a snippet of you on the piano is unadulterated joy. I would remind new subscribers that you were a professional concert pianist so we are doubly lucky to hear you even when you practice. I feel so honored by that. Like you I am fortunate to live in the country and take much delight in enjoying a walk round my gardens with my two dogs. We all enjoy nibbling on violets edging the gardens. Today I had the pleasure of cutting some French lilacs to fill my little library with their fantastic scent. I try to always have a big pitcher of Casa Blanca Lilies, bursting with unimaginable fragrance on my living room table. Friends always comment on their perfume. Nature and my boys provide me with unending joy! Judie

[@peggyboehnlein8755]

Oh really, I wondered about that, since he is so good!

[@paulathepoodlelover]

The music, the gardening, the floral shop, the farm store, the pizza lunch, and the rose tea cakes with tea. All of it was lovely. Thank you Kevin!

[@chrisfry436]

The way Lisette films and follows Kevin makes us feel like we are going along too!!

[@r.c.4016]

I have often wondered if there was anyone in this world like me. The simplest things bring me such joy. Then I found your channel. Such a pleasure to enjoy your walk with you and Avery. Little Harry is precious. Love all your videos.❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@bonniemiller9197]

At 82 yrs of age, I find my garden and landscape a source of joy. I sat outside today taking a break from working, and realized how much work was left to be done here in zone 5b now 6. And then I decided to look around at my favorite flowering trees, shrubs, bulbs and the grossbeak resting in the redbud and ignore the work. After all what is already here in the beauty of the moment is what inspires me to keep on gardening. Thanks Kevin!!

[@patriciaholloway]

My great joy is vintage and antique anything, so being able to go to an antique flea market or even a vendor mall to browse is a balm for my soul. And I love setting my table fancy with old table squares, mats, chargers, plates, napkins, centerpiece....all the beautiful things. It's always a mix of newer and antique. I keep a gorgeous cut glass Spooner on the table with some ornate old spoons in it. I change everything out frequently. I do the same with my bed, mixing and matching stripes and florals, using crisp white antique pillowcases, and fluffy throw blankets. Using my creativity with these things helps me to feel I'm living more elevated and definitely gives me immense joy! Thank you for the beautiful flowers, sweet doggos, and tasty cookies 💌💐

[@rainedevries3451]

What brings me joy: Spending time with my Jagger as he was the last rescue puppy my Mom saved before she transitioned on; polishing the chrome my Harley - even though I've had her for 24 years since the showroom floor, and she's ridden me all over the US, she still looks immaculate. Like you, I enjoy making my home as pleasant as possible, avoid processed foods, meditate and walk daily while being thankful for my good health, and watching your channel! Big hugs... ~Raine in Dallas

[@ime7918]

A lazy afternoon sitting on the good sofa with my dog and bundled under a blanket, watching your video, is something we both look forward to.

[@margaretvanhull1810]

You don't have to be a pro to arrange flowers. You let the flowers lead you and it always looks joyous. Thank you Kevin for sharing all the joy.

[@katmartin1765]

I’m lucky enough to watch eagles over a cove every day, which brings great joy to all our family🌞

[@judyw5584]

soaking in a hot bath until the water turns cold, then going to sleep on fresh clean sheets. nothing else like it!

[@thefrenchgardener1865]

Your walk through the gardens reminded me of a little sign in my French Grandmother's garden: "The kiss of the sun for pardon, The Songs of the birds for mirth, One is nearer God's heart in a garden, Than anywhere else on earth." Thank you for sharing.....

[@nrstooge]

garden, bake, cook, knit, quilt, read, stitching, and so many more small things.. like enjoying tea

[@kittiekat9707]

What brings me joy - my container garden where I grow tomatoes, many different peppers, herbs, flowers, etc. I am in AZ so we are in the middle of our 1st growing season this year! Also relaxing outside watching all my hummingbirds (they stay all year round here), other birds, hearing my neighbor's rooster and peacocks in the morning! And of course, my 2 rescue cats and all their shenanigans. Thank you Kevin, I'm trying to learn to enjoy cleaning lol!

[@melissalambert7615]

I like container gardening, watching birds and my stray/rescue cat. I'm in the Willamette Valley in Oregon. We have a small Anna hummer that stays in the valley year-round.

[@aeolianartists]

What brings me joy is having a day when I am not working or going to school to finish my PhD and can just spend time in nature. I also love that you named the flowers.

[@Motherhubbard170]

very helpful especially campanula, never knew that

[@elizabethzapac3203]

BACH‼️Beautiful!! Thank you for a lovely Sunday musical treat🙏🏼 The flower arrangement is gorgeous 💐 The pita pizza idea is wonderful! And focusing on the things that bring us joy is the BEST way to live life👏🏼🫶🏽🥰

[@kimchapman2210]

I enjoy a cup of tea during my day and I now purchase it from Tiara Farms. I also love to take a walk in my beautiful neighborhood and spend time with my dogs outside listening to all the birds that visit our backyard. 🥰

[@katevalentine7075]

Bach everyday ! Sure works for me lovely❤😂

[@anitablake8032]

Thank you, Kevin, for reminding us all to do what brings us joy. Sometimes it's easy to get all caught up in things, and we forget that,

[@EmilyAllan]

I am also a huge Bach fan. That was such a treat to hear you play Bach live!

[@theodorawohler2213]

Your playing the piano gives me great joy! I love Boch but my favorite is Frederic Chopin. Would you kindly consider playing one of many preludes, etudes or my favorite “Waltz in D flat major Op 61 No.1, no pressure, I am being a bit self indulgent. Thank you, for all you do for those of us who watch your channel. ❤

[@mrob75]

all the beauty in God’s nature and the beauty of friends…Like so many of us, Kevin’s friendship brings us A LOT of joy!

Oh I was so glad to see Avery enjoying his garden walk among all the beautiful Spring blooms! Thank you for showing him💓💓💓 I just can’t get over how beautifully you make the flower arrangements! You are so good at it! It definitely brings me joy to watch your videos, with all the flowers, music, delicious cooking, pets, etc. I also love watching my birds at the feeder enjoying the seed, planting flowers, and being in nature. We had a heavy rain shower today, and afterwards it smelled so good and fresh outside. 💓🦋💐🕊

[@lisaa8437]

Right back at you, Kevin! You and all you do for us in your videos brings me lots of needed joy!

[@thomascurb9006]

Books, rainy days, and watching your videos! I am disabled and can't do a lot of work but I enjoy watching you and others gardening.❤

[@KimLittlejohn2023]

You are so right, Kevin, nature is truly a miracle!! I love those short little rides that you take us on. Music for the ride is always so enjoyable. I love how you say to buy ourselves flowers . . . I'm trying to get in the habit of your recommendation. The flower arrangement in this video is one of your best, even though all are great. My joy comes from simply taking care of things around my home and gardening. My husband and I love entertaining, as you do, and making our guests feel special. I never mind the clean up afterwards. Another great video . . . thanks for posting.

[@missk7382]

Watching this video brings me joy! Cooking my Latin food brings me joy! Baking the different dishes you make brings me joy, being married for 43 years brings me joy, my children and grandchildren bring me happiness. Thank you! Keep the videos coming!

Your videos bring me joy ! Just ordered some rose water from Amazon to make tea cookies for book club on Tuesday! . My animals bring me so much joy. Like you I love nature … the birds singing bring joy and watching the wildlife captured on my cctv - foxes… badgers… in my small garden .. I am in my 70s and on my own so yes flowers and nature and my precious animals

[@MHoffHearts]

My husband and I spent this past Saturday deep cleaning our kitchen. Initially, it wasn't fun and we wanted to do anything else, but by the end of the afternoon, the kitchen was clean from top to bottom, inside and outside the best we could and we felt really proud and actually excited to cook and bake in our kitchen again. Even now while at work, I look forward to going home and preparing some healthy jell-o for a low calorie dessert and baking some muffins for breakfasts.

[@user-cb5wc9wh2h]

Dear Kevin, Thank you for your videos! They bring me joy!

[@paulsonap6]

As so many others have said, your channel brings such joy! Gardening, flowers, walking in nature, making music, and tasty treats all bring me joy as well. Thanks for sharing your life with us!🌸

You are so blessed to have your wonderful gardens, and I see where they bring you joy throughout the entire year, all of the seasons and regardless of the weather! I love the way you mix greens from your garden with fresh-cut flowers. You always end up with something beautiful. I would like to see a whole video devoted to pita bread pizzas. I like seeing the cookie recipes you share.

There is nothing quite like fresh flowers in one's home. ❤ Another wonderful video, Kevin.

[@Litha-yz7xq]

Looking at the gorgeous Bleeding Hearts blooming in your garden brought me joy. Stunning! They were a favorite of my Grand Mother.

[@lentilgoddess]

Certainly not the first to say-- your beautifully written, performed, videographed, and edited videos bring me joy! Your playing--WOW. On a more mundane level, mending things brings me ridiculous amounts of joy. Particularly fixing moth-attacked sweaters, holes in socks, fraying old towels... it is just not hard. And very satisfying. Thank you for all the work you do to add joy to our lives.

[@LaoSoftware]

Hiking and camping in nature brings me joy. I can recharge my battery. My life is stressful.

[@oceanbrzzz]

Joy: Drinking my morning tea or coffee on the deck while watching the sun rise brings me joy. I do this every morning during warmer weather (and it’s not raining). Doing star and planet gazing with the telescope my late daughter gave me. Baking all sorts of goodies for my husband and family. Watching your channel. Trying some of your recipes. Discovering your channel this past year gave me immense joy! I love all the things you do and share.

[@mindygriffith3]

I've been on a KLJ kick. I've been playing your videos on repeat as I really enjoy your vibe. I especially dig the road trips, but I like it all. Gardening, market/farm day trips, meal prep, music, tea time, pets, and evening the cleaning! As long as you keep doing what you do, I'll watch and listen. Thanks for sharing your part of the world. Cheers! Mindy, Riverside CA

[@maryreddell6529]

Relaxing in the park watching you this rainy Sunday morning. Ahh!

[@MaryLuminary]

You bring me joy on this Sunday morning Kevin! Thank you for the break . Watched too much news and trying not to get depressed (doesn't take much). Then tuned into today's "Joy" video and feel all better now. I enjoyed your quality time in the garden with Avery. Beautiful! Fun to see Harry the shop dog greeter at that wonderful flower shop. They do have some exquisite flowers there. Your bouquet turned out lovely. It had that "just gathered from a cottage garden" look. I love the pita pizzas. They would be fun to serve for a party. The reflection on the piano after polishing is quite beautiful. Thank you for the mini Bach recital. Sounds great. The antique tea cake recipe looks to be simple, yet delicious. Take care and have a wonderful Sunday. See you next time.♥️🐕💐🌱🌸🌿💮🌷🎵🎶🎹🎶🎵🌼🌳🍕🫖🍪

[@arj-peace]

Thank you for sharing your daily joys with us, and for the reminder of how important it is to find joy in every day. Like you, nature is one of my joys that keeps me happy, healthy, and grounded. My wish is for everyone to have the space and opportunity to experience daily joy. ❤

[@ladyw605]

Another lovely video!!! You are so blessed to have such a beautiful large house that will accommodate not only one but two grand pianos!!! My home won’t accommodate even a baby grand but I do own a Donner digital grand piano that I am very blessed and proud to say my husband gifted me on my 68th birthday in March of 2023. I had been without a piano for over 30 years which was continuously very distressful for me. In the early 1990’s, I sold my very old console piano to a local young mother who wanted to teach piano lessons in her home. I had every intention to purchase a new piano, but life just got in the way, not to mention the very high price tag of the piano I wanted-I never dreamed it would take so long to make this purchase, nor did I ever think I would purchase a digital piano; but, I have thoroughly enjoyed having any piano in my daily life once again!!! I had most definitely missed my piano!!! I play almost every day and I have been amazed that I was not nearly as rusty as I expected to be!!! Your flower arrangement is absolutely breathtaking-there is nothing more beautiful in any room in a home than a fresh flower arrangement!!! I must try your tea cookie recipe with the rose water-I’ve never used rose water in cooking before so I am very eager to give it a try!!! Thank you for contributing so much beautiful and worthwhile content on your wonderful channel!!! See you next time; and, in the meantime, please be well, safe and happy!!! 💝🎹💐

[@lornawilbore106]

Thank you Kevin. I so enjoy our tea times in your music room. In my life, I enjoy pottering around my home cleaning and just puffing it up. There is nothing better than getting home after a busy day to a well kept and organised little home.

What brings me joy is talking, laughing and telling jokes with my family and friends. Another thing that brings me joy is spending lunch time with my students and listening to them laugh and have fun whilst they eat. Sunny days, rainy days and stormy days also bring me joy.

Hi Kevin, I find joy in reading a good book. I really enjoy sewing and using my embroidery machine, especially when I make something for our grandchildren! Watching you bring me great joy. Cooking with my husband is very joyful. Saying my prayers gives me peace, joy and happiness. Watching the trees and flowers grow through the seasons fills me with joy. Thank you for reminding me to see the joy in each day.❤❤❤

[@raewynannbenten1385]

Hi Kevin. A professional florist gave me a homemade recipe for a cut flower feed and preservative and I have been using it successfully for over 20 years. The ratios are important to adhere to. For every 1 litre of water, add 1/2 teaspoon of household bleach, 1 teaspoon of white vinegar, and 2 teaspoons of white sugar. The tiny amount of bleach acts as a germicide/anti bacterial and keeps the water clear and stems from rotting too quickly, The vinegar maintains a PH of 3.5 ensuring water continues to be drawn up the cut stems, and of course the sugar is plant food. This is fundamentally what is in dehydrated florist sachets. 😃

[@RobynDeLaVie]

getting to watch your videos brings me joy! thank you for reminding us there is beauty all around us! life is a present, we must enjoy it! thank you Kevin!

Dear Kevin, I live almost completely opposite of you but seem to enjoy all the same things. I’m a 74 year old grandma, but I still get the same beautiful sky and breezes and nature. I can walk through Mammoth Cave Ky, grow a few things in a container garden, have a granddaughter that occasionally stops by and talks with me, so blessed. I live in a little trailer which fits all my needs. I’m blessed with a nice little church with caring people. And I enjoy your channel that has no chaos. Thank you for your time.

[@STARDUST61]

Your flower arrangement is gorgeous!

[@dorishodge4451]

Many things bring me joy. One of my favorite is keeping chickens. I did not grow up on a farm. My husband and I moved to the country when I was in my late 40's and we got some chickens. They are very easy to keep and very entertaining to watch. I wouldn't want to deprive you of your trips to the farm, Kevin, but I'm kind of suprised you don't have a small coop and 4 or 5 chickens. Not only would you have all the fresh eggs you could ever want, but an abundance of garden gold (manure) for your garden (as long as you use pine shavings and not straw in your coop.)
