Round Robin Challenge: Joy: What Makes Your Heart Happy?

Looking over the bumper crop of recent Round Robin topic suggestions from Steven's "Camera Resolutions" Challenge, I was struck today by the ideas of two Robins who were thinking very much along the same lines. The #2 suggestion of new Robin participant Kathy of Through the Viewfinder was as follows:
THIS CHALLENGE IS NOW CLOSED

Joy - whatever brings you joy, others showing joy

This shot makes my heart happy. I get a big smile of my face every time I look at it.... So the theme is 'what makes your heart happy?'

This theme of joy and happiness makes me happy! So here we go: the theme for our next Round Robin Photo Challenge on Saturday, February 7 is:

Joy: What Makes Your Heart Happy?

You can answer this question about yourself or a loved one, or anyone, really. Just show us a source of joy and/or its effect. Maybe it's someone or something that makes your heart happy. Or perhaps you'd rather show us someone whose joy is evident in the photo. We'll be happy to see either or both!

But first, a quick refresher on how all this works, for those of you who may be new or may not have played along recently:

• Please RSVP in the comments with your name (or screen name), blog name, and blog address, thus:

Yes, I'll be happy to play!

• Please post your entry no sooner than Saturday, February 7th, any time from midnight to midnight. If you know you can't get to your blog on the day, that's okay, too. Your blogging service may let you upload it ahead of time and schedule it to post that Saturday. Or, if you're running late, you can still post your entry up to six days later if necessary. Just be sure that if you do RSVP, you follow through and post within that time frame.

• Please link back to this blog in your entry, so that people know where to come for info if they want to play along. If you like, you can even post the whole Linking List, which we add to this entry around midnight and update several times on the day of the Challenge. But at minimum, please post the main Round Robin link, or direct people to that same link on your sidebar.
  

Got it? Good! Now go be photographers!
