You know that box outside of your house...where the bills come in? The one that sometimes delivers packages, maybe that new Silhouette CAMEO that you ordered from Amazon? hmm mmm...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ok well for almost as long as I can remember, I would not categorize many things came from that box as HAPPY MAIL.</div>

That has changed. I found a website called <a href="http://www.swap-bot.com/" target="_blank">SWAP-BOT</a> where you can trade ATC's mini books and more, with other crafters around the country and the world. I am what they refer to as a newbie, and I'm still learning the navigation process, but I wanted to share the mail that I have sent out.</div>

My first ATC was called LOVE. I made it with golden wings, silver bead findings and topped with a a regal amethyst crown. It symbolized my King of KINGS and Lord of LORDS. The man that loved unconditionally and teaches us to follow the same. He <u>D E F I E D</u> the law and <u>L O V E D</u> instead of punished He <u>F O R G A V E</u> instead of hated...and I <u>L O V E</u> him :)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
poured out</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is to love someone, truly love them with each fiber of your being. Imagine your favorite perfume for a minute. Mine happens to be Prada Amber. When I spray it, as each molecule of it's sweet scent fills the air around me, I am filled with joy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For me this is even more significant. After I had the kids, that pregnancy sense of smell, stuck with me. I used to be the kind of girl that had tons of perfumes on my vanity. Every bottle sparkling and beautiful with a slew of secret memories locked inside each one. Now, I am lucky not to feel queasy when someone walks by me wearing one of these fragrances. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So back to my Prada. I can wear it without getting dizzy or developing a stomach ache. I am as happy with the scent from the minute it lands on me throughout the day as it fades.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So next time you are next to that person that you {LOVE} imagine your favorite perfume, how it makes you feel, the memories that are wrapped in it's scent. Imagine him (or her) like that. When his arms are around you, like your own Prada, think of the memories that rush to your thoughts. Think of how happy he makes you feel...</div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Today would have been my dad's Birthday. It has been 3 years since he passed away, and I miss him. A little...a lot. There are so many days that pass, where I think to ask him first for advise. I could just reach for the phone to call him, and ask him for his opinion. For his help. Then the reality hits me, that he won't be there to pick up the phone. I know that I will see him again. I know that he is watching me from Heaven. He's probably playing Contra on Sega Genesis with Jesus, yelling "JUMP!" He's savoring napoleons and boston cream doughnuts. His legs no longer hurt him and he can hang out at the beach, whenever he wants. One day, I will join him and so will my darlings. We will all enjoy napoleons and a friendly game of Contra together. Until then, I have so many great memories.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">On this anniversary, I want to do another printable. My dad always said that he loved to read the "RED" words in the Bible. He loved Jesus, and all of His precious words. After having children, we think we know love. Kind of. We know the love for our families, or for those that show us love back. The others, that are undeserving, in our eyes, not so much. That love is a lot harder. But, those are the "RED" words. The words of our merciful loving Lord. His love is unmeasurable, and almost unimaginable, but just as he extends it to us, he wants us to extend it to others. All others, not just the deserving ones.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Dad, as I thought about you today, these words filled my head....</span><br />

It's not new at all, just new to me...and maybe you? With a logo like, </span><span style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">for all who </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; line-height: 16px;">♥ color, </span><span style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> </span><a href="http://design-seeds.com/" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;" target="_blank">design seeds</a><span style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">, <span style="line-height: 16px;">already has a check in my book. Because, well, I do love color.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 16px;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">One word....</span></span><span style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; line-height: 16px;">hooked.</span><br />
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">The concept of this beautiful eye candy blog is taking a color palette from lovely images. Not only is it a treat to feast your eyes on God's vast color wheel, but the site is a wonderful source of inspiration.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span>

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">If your brain is anything like mine, it is often on sensory overload. I adore beautiful images. Beautiful colors send me spinning in delight. The downside is, there is no organization. For example, I just began watercolor painting and to me, the hardest part has been coordinating the colors. Sometimes two turquoises should not be seen together and certainly all pinks are not the same :) </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">The site is very easy to navigate. You can search a palette by adjusting the color values or picking a theme. Here are a few that I loved and wanted to share with you:</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I don't always open up about things that are very personal. Mainly because I don't want to be vulnerable. The thought of opening up is enough to give me cold sweats. If I had a pair of sunglasses, I would put them on right to hide my...um well...bashfulness. The odd part is, those that know me in everyday life would probably not categorize me as bashful or shy by any means. I do however, have one kryptonite if you will...talking about intimacy. I know that other people might struggle with casting out their shortcomings, but to me, it is almost inconceivable. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Here goes...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I became a Christian my Sophomore year of high school. Before that, there were no real "rules". I was brought up in a liberal atmosphere. I can remember my mom not wanting to take my dad's last name. When I was young, she would tell me that she didn't want me to drink or smoke, but if I did, she'd rather know. My dad on the other hand, was very conservative and there was a constant struggle in our home to make sure that he didn't always "catch on". My dad seemed a hopeless romantic and my mom less so. Ok, enough dishing, baby steps here :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">When you get married, you may bring with you notions that may not be in the best interest of your marriage. Maybe the house you grew up in wasn't romantic, maybe it was worse than that. Then there's the fairy tales that depict marriage in a whole different light, and an unattainable goal to reach, or is it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I believe one of the greatest keys to a successful and thriving marriage is to WORK AT IT! To throw some whimsical light on the subject, just think about fairytale princesses. (insert classical music playing in the background) Belle had to deal with Beast's anger issues. Cinderella was ok with the fact that her prince, couldn't remember what she looked like. Jasmine had to deal with Aladdin, not only being a peasant, but worse of all lying to her. Ariel, was almost dumped because she lost her voice. Snow White and Sleeping Beauty had it easy, they were "rescued" by their princes. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">A fruitful marriage needs nurturing. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Even when you're tired. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Even when you're stressed out. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Even when there are dishes that are piled in the sink resembling Mount Everest. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Even when...you don't want to. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Especially when you don't want to. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">You need to intentionally focus on Biblical principles that are revealed through out the Bible. For me this is sometimes a struggle. Remember that liberal house I told you about? Yeah, the idea of being a submissive wife does not always come naturally to me. I have to rely on God's word. God teaches us to uphold our husbands as the head of our households. But with that, we will reap abundant rewards. Getting married, means you enter into a covenant with your husband and he with you. He is your friend before all else. When you lift up a friend with admiration and respect, doesn't the relationship flourish? It is the same in marriage. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The Song of Songs shows us a deep admiring love. The love that God intends and WANTS for us. Today, I wanted to share this first passage with you. I pray that it blesses you and your marriage.</span><br />

There's something about making your own furniture and accessories in your home. Every time you walk by your piece, you can admire your handy work. Plus, in some cases, like the pieces I have found below, they are even nicer than the original they were trying to replicate. </div>

<span style="font-size: 16pt;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Sometimes, I catch the local school bus stopping at the corner
of my street. I can’t say that there
hasn’t been a time {or two} that I have day dreamt that my darlings were on
that very bus. That instead of being with me all day making messes with paper and glue, they would be doing
that in their very own class rooms. <o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: 16pt;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Homeschooling is a very hard choice, and not one that may be
right for everyone. It is a decision that I would not
want to push on anyone else. The main
reason for my writing this is because of the questions...like, How will your kids get
into college? Can they possibly make it
in the “real” world, or are they social awkward? …and the list goes on.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: 16pt;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Since I decided to start offering printables, videos and such on
karatootie, I thought I would address my families journey in homeschool. Believe me, before making the decision for my
own darlings, I was never a believer in homeschooling. I had the same questions.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: 16pt;">Why homeschool then? Well,
it was actually quite an easy decision for us to make, </span><span style="font-size: 21px;">because it was through </span><span style="font-size: 16pt;">God. He instructed us to follow this path. I always tell people that I heard God speak to me 3
years ago, but not in the clouds dividing and sun beams surrounding a deep
voice sort of way. More of a heart talk,
a deep soulful feeling that I couldn’t ignore. When God spoke to my family it was during a hard time in many American’s lives, and
we were certainly not excluded. My
husband’s business was one of the first hit by the economy’s fall and his job had already been demoted. We were struggling financially, trying to make ends meet. He called me into his office one morning and
told me that we may need to put our son in school and daughter in daycare. I would be going to work outside of our home. We
both agreed that before either of us made a decision, we would pray about it,
and put it into God’s hands.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: 16pt;">Have you ever heard of coincidences? Yeah me too, but in this case, it was quite
the opposite of that. In my heart, it
was DIVINE intervention. In my heart, God spoke to my family, He spoke to me. My husband and I decided to put it fully into
God’s hands. (maybe one or two of you can relate here) That, is a very HARD thing to do. To let go, completely. Being that
I am already getting so personal here, I will add that I like to get things done. If I see a better way of doing something, I
give it a go. If there is a problem, I
want a solution, a good solution, and fast.
To me, putting something into God’s hands is painfully difficult. I know this is my all powerful, </span><span style="font-size: 21px;">omniscient</span><span style="font-size: 16pt;">, omnipresent God that created the world in 6 days….but me wait for him? Arg, I
am SO stubborn! I am competitive! I am impatient! We gave it over to God. I gave it over to Him completely, and trusted in His decision which ever it may be. Within our timeline, to the day, we received
a call that my husband’s company was expanding and he was moving back up. I must stress that the rest of the economy
was still in ruins. To be candidly
honest, when I agreed to put the matter into God’s hands, I was very sure that
I would be enrolling the kids in school and day care very soon. I envisioned my kids riding the bus
everyday. But God had a different
vision. I think that he had a vision of
my darlings with me. With me teaching
them about Him. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 16pt;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Am I the right person to be trusted with these darlings? Me? I mess up. I lose my temper. What if I can’t do the
quadratic equation any more? I don’t
always have a clean house….and the list goes on. The thing is that although I may not always
understand God’s plans, I do believe in them.
I pray daily that he equips me with knowledge, understanding and patience to
handle my darlings. He has. He has taken that burden from my shoulders
and has allowed me to enjoy them. I get
to enjoy seeing Miss L light up as she is learning how to read. When I see her smile after tackling a new word
that she has never seen before. I smile, and my
heart warms. When I hear Mr D spouting
off his memorization work, my heart is filled….I am so thankful.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: 16pt;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Am I hard on them? Yes, at times I am. I know their potential, so I push them to do
their best. We don’t move on to a new
subject if we don’t fully understand the one at hand. That’s where Classical Conversations fits
in. For those that don’t know, it’s a
co-op that meets once a week (or you can do it at home) and has a very
intellectually stimulating and challenging curriculum. It fits us.
It allows us to be very hands on and although the material is demanding
at times, my darlings don’t notice, because they are having fun while
learning. So, it’s a win, win.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 16pt;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Then there’s the fun stuff.
I get to play with my kids at the park.
We go for midday bike rides and picnics.
We get to visit museums and libraries all the time. Guess what, if we want to visit Governor’s
mansion, or see how a library works, we do! So those messes that I mentioned earlier? Well truth be told, I really enjoyed making them.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: 16pt;">See, I am like every other mom, I want my darlings to be
masters, not like He-Man or anything, but I want them to be knowledgeable. I want them to
be social butterflies, A + students, sports heroes, defenders of the innocent,
the first picked at sports, beautiful and handsome, well versed biblically,
multilingual, musicians, artists…well you know, PERFECT! Well, we still far from that, but we will continue to trust God. In His timing, His knowledge, and His </span><span style="font-size: 21px;">vision</span><span style="font-size: 16pt;"> for us.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

another co-op in your area. If there are

Again, I understand that homeschooling is not for everyone, so please

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Some of you may remember Charity, whom I began this blog with. Remember she sells the AMAZING dolls that I featured <a href="http://karatootie.blogspot.com/2012/10/waldorf-doll-mania.html" target="_blank">here</a>. She also sells patterns <a href="http://thevinesbranches.com/" target="_blank">here</a>. They are all simple, easy to follow and they're great because they are made by her :)</span><br />
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">She had written up a tutorial for her SERIOUSLY? EASY TANK TOP, that makes the pattern into a standard tank, and I am sharing it with you all today. I actually had this post started over a year ago, but I must have forgotten it, and left it in the drafts. Better late than never? Here it is now...</span><br />

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Cut strips of stretchy knit fabric (like jersey or rib knit) 4" long. I usually cut the strips as wide as I can using the entire width of the fabric.</span><br />

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Fold your 4" strips in half, making them 2". Match the raw edges of the strips with the raw edge of one of the the arm openings in your tank top front piece. Pin down all the way accross the arm opening. Once all the way accross trim off what is left to use on the next arm opening!</span><br />

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Go to your machine and stitch in place. I then serge the raw edges, if you do not have access to a serger no problem... just either zigzag or overcast stitch the raw edges with your sewing machine. NOTE... knit fabrics normally do not fray... so if you choose you can leave your edges raw as well! :-)</span><br />

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Follow these steps with all arm and both neck and bottom openings. Now you will follow all instructions that came in your pattern to construct your top. I have decided to show you another option also... I am going to simply hem the bottom of this tank top instead of using our red band of fabric on the bottom...</span><br />

Now Press, and go to the sewing machine! Sew with either a zigzag or a straight stitch (its all in what you like the look of better) And your finshed!</span><br />

American Girl Doll peppermint skirt TUTORIAL</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ok sugar tartes, as promised here is another tutorial featuring Lily. Remember her from <a href="http://karatootie.blogspot.com/2012/09/american-girl-doll.html" target="_blank">here</a>?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This skirt is SUPER DUPER easy! You can make it in less that 1 hour!! The best part? It is full and twirly and if you little doll could dance, she'd surely pirouette for hours with this little number!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sometimes little dollies that are pampered with new clothing and accessories whenever they have a whim, can become......a little like......um.......a PRIMA DONNA. So sadly is the case for Lily. She was in the middle of her midday nap when I began this project. So please be patient with us. And.....Shhhhh!<br />

Today, I thought I'd share some of my favorite fonts with you...just 'cause I'm one of those sweet </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
heart types and all! ;) No, seriously....I'm a font fanatic! What about you? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Do the curly tails of a "J" make your heart melt? The subtle loops of a "D" make you blush pink?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If so, then you'll love these fonts today. They are {script-alicious} most certainly!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
I don't know about you all, but I love eye candy. I love to get magazines like Stampington or Where Women Create. I grab a seat, prop my feet up, and bask in the beauty of each page, by page. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
vintage ribbons? ............YES!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
tea dyed fabric? .............UH HUH!<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
rhinestone pins?............YES PLEASE!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Filling my visual senses with pretty things not only lifts my mood, but allows me to continue seeing things for their beauty. Beautiful images fill my heart......ahhhh.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Images of burlap, lace, velvet, chalks, paints, papers, stamps and beads flutter all around me, warming and hugging my soul.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In my house, I have my own little nook that I have filled with my favorite things. In my magical space, it is not odd that you find a sewing project, my art journaling or even ribbons all over my desk at any given time. This is the place that I can go to create.....to let my creativity flow. It is my favorite place. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
My very favorite place indeed. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

Sugar tartes...won't you join me on a tour? </div>

Taking a step into our library, the smell of paper surrounds us. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1096.photobucket.com/albums/g323/kara-tootie/1_zpse32eaf61.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://i1096.photobucket.com/albums/g323/kara-tootie/1_zpse32eaf61.jpg" width="570" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We walk straight to the back. To the kids section. It is decorated with children's artwork and there are books as far as the eye can see. The tables are all in miniature to fit small darlings. And the books are divided by categories that interest even the most persnickety of readers....there's crafts, action, history, ad so on. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The library will hold fond memories for my little darlings. Memories that they can share with their own little darlings. Memories will rush back to them when they smell that distinct musky smell of old pages bound to leather.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
In that spirit, I wanted to share a tidbit with you. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Through <a href="http://pinterest.com/karatootie/" target="_blank">Pinterest</a> I found a great gem. In a list of the 67 books you must read to your children, I stumbled upon THE 131/2 LIVES OF captain BLUEBEAR. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I must warn you that this self proclaimed captain will win over your hearts. The book is exquisitely and beautifully written. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is outrageously entertaining with many adventures that will tug at your heart strings. Bluebear is the lovable charter that you will certainly root for.<br />

**I will add, my 6 year old gets a little lost in the language, but my 8 year old is glued to his seat waiting to experience each new adventure**</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I am not an overcast sort of girl. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I don't enjoy sad music playing as the color grey fills my skies. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I adamantly prefer the warm soft rays of the sun peaking through my blinds in the morning.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
Today I was forced to make "lemonade" from the lemons that the weather has given me. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
Not actual lemonade. (because that would mean me having to go to the grocery store again)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
My lemonade was making a printable for my kids (and YOURS) to enjoy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I think that's a better kind. (since I can share)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
Instead of harping on the dreary doldrums that lurk outside my windows,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I wanted to focus on things that we are thankful for.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
So I drew up this turkey printable :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
Yep. Just for you!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
We printed out 2 copies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
One for each kiddo (cause that's how we roll).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
Using some scissors, crayons, scrapbook paper, pens, tape, and our imaginations...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
We began creating our turkeys...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">First, Let me tell you a little about the hands that create these beautiful dolls. They are my dear friend, Charity's. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">...</span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">It's actually not fair to call her my friend, when we are really more like sisters.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I've wanted to do a write up about her AMAZING DOLL shop, and have been thinking of what exactly I want you to know about her. </span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> I'll start by telling you that she has five (yep 5!) little ones. And by little I mean the oldest is in fourth grade and the youngest just turned 3. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">...For all you moms out there, you'll realize that Charity has been changing diapers for over 10 years straight! Hello people, that is an amazing feat in itself! </span> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Not to mention one that most of us would not </span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">volunteer for. (sorry Charity..it's almost over!) ;) </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I would tell you that her love for those little ones is only surpassed by the love for her awesome (I am obliged to crown him with such a title do to the fact that he makes the best buckeyes this side of the Mississippi!)husband Brian. And of course, her love for Jesus. Charity is honestly one of the only people that I know that doesn't shove her religion down your throat. She is genuine and that happiness that she exudes is real.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">So about her dolls. About 2 years ago, Charity told me about Waldorf Dolls (which are all made using natural materials) So she set of on an adventure to make them UBER-caaaute! (just look at them!) Tell me that you seriously don't want to pick one up and squeeze her (or his) cheeks! </span></div>

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> i have an art journal.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">in fact, i have a few of them.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> i actually created art journals, before i even knew what they were.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">when i was little i used to love to take ruled 3 ring binders and fill them with pages of doodles, notes and drawings.</span></div>

<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">i have often featured sewing/fabric tutorials over here at karatootie, but today, I wanted to share with you another aspect of what karatootie stands for.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">as you may have read before, i always thought that i was a complete LOST CASE when it came to anything artistic. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">i guess i was, because i was scared to try. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">i was really scared to fail. scared of what anyone else thought and mostly terrified of the criticisms that i knew would follow.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">i think that there are more people feel that way than not.</span></div>
