  6. Happy blog birthday! Wow, 200 posts! Congrats Lina, I hope you know your blog brightens many days : )

    I love that drawing. Something about birds, cages, and flying always resonates with me.

    Your giveaway gift is lovely. That's the only word that could describe it perfectly. Have you been to Colonial Williamsburg? I live very close to it but I only went when I was younger. If you leave near a tourist vacation spot you never feel inclined to go.
