Deep Thoughts

It seems to be the season for resolutions. For many years, I chose a word of the year. Last year I believe was easy. I don't know if that was a good choice. I did consistently ask myself am I making this harder than necessary. I am not sure if I will have one little word this year. It hasn't come to me yet. I do find it somewhat helpful.

52 Ancestors - Year in Review

 I participated in Amy Johnson Crows writing about 52 ancestors in 52 weeks. Every week there is a very open-ended writing prompt. I thought I would highlight a few that you the audience liked.

Below are the top 3 most viewed blog posts in this category. I wrote 12 total 52 ancestor posts this year.
