   Thanks for this wealth of information. I am a new blogger and can use all the tips and suggestions I can get on blogging!

   My blog is called Christian Kindred, and the goal of it is to encourage Christians and discuss practical Biblical principles for everyday Christian living.

   Thanks for the opportunity to share about my new blog. My husband and I will be homeschooling our kids in the fall, so I am glad I found yours!

   Wow! Thank you so much for putting this list together.

   It’s such a coincidence, bumping into you here. I was just reading your “big blue book” a few hours ago! It’s very interesting, and there are a lot of new ideas to absorb. Thank you.
