Please Vote in My Mail Poll

I notice most of the blogs related to letters and pen pals have posts about incoming and outgoing mail, generally photos of actual items and, if applicable, linking to the blog of the sender or receiver.

Update--Good point from the comments section. I definitely wouldn't share anyone's addresses, or even full names, on posts. I'd have something along the lines of "Postcard from Penny in Canada," "Letter heading to Dana [with a link to her blog]," etc.

I turn 47 today, so please leave a comment about a favorite birthday memory (yours or a time you spent with someone else) to get a spot in a drawing for a $47 online gift card to Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or Etsy (winner's choice). You have until 5 p.m. CST on Thursday, March 2, to comment.
