found and treasured friday: babies, yarn, & serenity

11/12/2011 by Jennifer 2 Comments

Isn’t it wonderful when you come across photos that include a bunch of your favorite things together? Well, I like babies and I like yarn. Today, while pinning, I found these beautiful photos by Reverie.

Oh my goodness. I feel inspired to crochet a ton and take a bunch of pictures (gloomy weather = beautiful lighting). Most of all though, I feel like being around an actual baby. I haven’t seen my new niece Lailah since she was born. A trip home is long overdue. But I am feeling so busy!

Do you ever feel like you’re doing a bunch of things you love, but all of them combined are just overwhelming? That is how I feel right now. Nothing is terrible. I love my classes. I love thinking about grad school or other future plans. I love blogging. And spending time with friends. But even if I am doing things that I enjoy, I still feel busy.

Yesterday, in the middle of my classes and my internship, I went to a cozy Starbucks in a town where I don’t know anyone. There was a fireplace and Mumford & Sons started playing in the background. And I just sat there for five minutes with my gingerbread chai. It was so perfect! How often do you go to a coffee shop to just sit by yourself? Not read. Not write. Not talk to anyone.

May I have another opportunity in the near future to do that again :)

    I ended up in Lafayette an hour early for an appointment one day and did the same thing at Peet’s….it was lovely to just sit and be by myself! I’m glad I’m not the only one who appreciates those moments
