the library and lindsay

Today we went to the library. As promised my camera made the trip too. I was excited to try and capture a little slice of our life away from home. There were a couple other people in the library today and I changed my mind about taking pictures. I worried about what they thought of me. "What is that crazy mom doing taking pictures in the library?"

Then, I got Ada girl out of her carseat. (Poor thing has never been out of that seat in the library before. It is much easier to keep her contained!) Anyway, I took her out and she stood up at the little kids table. I then decided that I didn't care what the other library visitors thought--I was going to capture something I wanted to remember:

I need to remember that people really don't care what you are doing as much as you think. Plus, even if they cared or thought I was weird why should I care? I do. Trying not to. Glad I got the shot I wanted at our little library.

In other unrelated news:

My twin sister is featured on Pottery Barn's blog today! You didn't know I have a twin sister? I don't really. Here's the story:

Once upon a time I went to Ball State University and studied Art Education. There I met some wonderful people, one of them being Lindsay. We took lots of classes together, and spent countless hours in the art building together. We would huddle and talk for hours (on the sidewalk, in the hallways, during class) about how stressed we were and how hard college life was. (Side note: college life is not hard or stressful compared to real life. I should have enjoyed it more. If you are in college right now please relax a little. Do it for me. Side note finished.) People thought we looked like sisters, so we went with it. We even traveled to Italy together--such a wonderful life changing experience. Since our BSU days Lindsay has been one of my very best friends, and I love her dearly.

So, go check out her beautiful feature on the Pottery Barn blog, then visit her blog: The Milkweed Pods.

Love you Lindsay! Congrats!
