I thought that maybe today I would have something profound to say about blogging, about my experience here at little birds, about the impact it has had on my life, about connections, about community, about appreciating everyday beauty, but I already feel myself going into the silence that has been a long time coming.

I will instead just say thank you. Thank you for visiting, for commenting, for encouraging me, for connecting with me. It's been a really nice ride. It has changed my life and pushed me in directions that I never expected. A true gift.  Thank you.

Take good care. I'll see you around.

No profound statement needed. The apprecation is mutual! The end of little birds feels like a good friend moving away, but I am glad to have had this window into your world for a time. little birds has been a true pleasure and an inspiration to me. Very best wishes to you and your family! xoxo

Aw, I'm a little sad. This was the first blog I ever came across (so long ago!), and it made me see that blogs are not this strange, narcissistic thing I had thought them to be. You've really been inspiring. Thank you, and best of luck to you and your family!
