    Jana, thanks so much for including one of my posts this week--so unexpected, given my surname-specific work on the current series (okay, well maybe somebody else might be researching Kelly or Stevens).

    I know others have said this before in comments, but thank you so much for continuing to post your list of noteworthy articles. It makes for a handy reading list of "The Best Of" for the week and helps us to find great bloggers we might otherwise miss.

    Honoured to find the geneameme listed here thanks, Jana. I'm sure it will expose the meme to a larger audience and encourage mire geneabloggers to reflect on their blogging.

    Jana,
    What a surprise to be included among all these amazing blog posts, thank you!! It's so challenging to squeeze everything we do in a 24 hour day, so the appreciation for your compilation is great; if I don't do anything else I know I can read through the list and find the 'latest and greatest'. Keep up the fabulous work!
    Laura
