It really has been quite awhile since I have been able to post on my blog and especially finish any DT work but I have finally accomplished something! Yippee! During Easter Break last week I was able to clear a spot in the craft room and sit down to start and (yes really)finish a project. It seems that teaching pretty much full time and working at the studio really leaves me with little creative time sadly enough. I was very happy to steal a few hours to myself to sit down and get creative although I have to say the mojo is really not there. I was able to complete this one piece for the <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Try it on Tuesday challenge </a>so all was not lost.<br />
<br />
The Challenge theme this fortnight over at the Try it on Tuesday Challenge blog is "New Beginnings" So we would like to see anything relating to baby, new home, new job, wedding etc. I chose to scrapbook this picture of my daughter from a very long time ago sleeping next to my husband. She looks so peaceful. So hard to imagine this little sweetie grew into my very opinionated, wacky and very tall daughter. Yes she has outgrown me and is still sprouting.<br />

<br />
For this layout I used Patterned paper(Sorry I do not know the name as I cut off the strip a long while ago.), Prima flowers along with miniature handmade paper roses. Chip board letters and flourishes, paint, ink, burlap and a few other bits I had around.<br />
So I now send you over to the <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Try it on Tuesday blog </a>to see some fab creations by my team mates and also browse through and meet some of our newest members. They are such a great bunch. Once over there you can link up your creations and share them with us in the challenge. We cannot wait to see them.<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by and with any luck hopefully it will not be too long before my next post.<br />

"Things with Wings" is the new theme over at <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">TIOT</a>. I really wanted to share this beautiful driftwood bird since it is perfect for the theme, but I have to say aside from having an artful eye and spotting it I really did not create it. The full credit for that goes to Mother Nature for this one. I found it on one of our trips to the beach. It was just sitting there like a bird curled up in the sand.</div>

There is a new challenge over at <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Try it on Tuesday</a> and the theme this fortnight is "music". Here is my project:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKWJqLnpZ_MMU96ptSpZ63wFChtBFbhkF9fbbYYS0a7nxtsidjCTowXe9ImgDRAJhO5mBC8pul0HpN1Ypg6JsrcgLj3KkCtTH8E8pCONk_TkW1slTeIhvFzZ-BNyJPYMdPc7l1dRKxBbA/s1600/mixmedcanvas.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKWJqLnpZ_MMU96ptSpZ63wFChtBFbhkF9fbbYYS0a7nxtsidjCTowXe9ImgDRAJhO5mBC8pul0HpN1Ypg6JsrcgLj3KkCtTH8E8pCONk_TkW1slTeIhvFzZ-BNyJPYMdPc7l1dRKxBbA/s1600/mixmedcanvas.bmp" height="316" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I created a canvas with a picture of my daughter in her solo costume for her dance to "Buttercup" so many moons ago. If only I could return to those days. For my canvas I used a creamy acrylic for background color then added stamping with fresh flowers and white and yellow paint. Next I stamped some tissue with my Hero Arts music stamp and decoupaged onto canvas. The picture was then added and some black paint scrapings around it and on edges. Finally I added some yellow beads(which I had also used to make her earrings for the costume and some little cloth flowers. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now if you head on over to the <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">TIOT challenge blog </a>you can see what my other team mates have created and add your own so we can take a look. Hope to see you there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So no onto my updates. Well I really must apologize for being gone for so long. I have to say life has pretty much gotten in the way. I have not even had the change to craft much and my days are now filled with work and school related stuff. I have been coaching my daughters team for the Ecybermission and Christopher Columbus science competitions since the early fall and that alone has taken up a lot of time. They have been working on a project involving Diamondback Terrapins and how their nesting was effected by Superstorm Sandy. If you would like to see more about their project you can visit their<a href="http://turtleteachings.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"> blog here</a>. I have also been working at the school here and there along with my volunteer work and oh yeah the foster doggies of course have needed their time. Finally I have been plagued with illness this winter. It seems that as soon as the boot came off and my foot was healing from the fracture I had managed to wear myself down enough to get the bug going around which started weeks ago with a sore throat then into a lovely cough which I still have. I have to say though at least with the snow days I have managed to clean out my craft room and can once again sit at my desk and try to create although it seems my creative mojo is now on vacation. I am sure it shall return soon and I shall be ready when it does. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
SO that pretty much covers the past months I have been missing. Now that the projects for the girls are submitted there is not as much running around for meetings. They still have some ongoing work caring for the turtles and some fundraising at least until they get the competition results in April. Please with them luck. They have worked really hard and have really done a great job working on things outside their normal comfort zone. If you would like to wish them good luck you can visit their blog here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have managed to get 5 foster doggies adopted out while I was on hiatus. there was Stacey, Marly, Sally(aka Reilly), Abby and Eden. All wonderful little girls who managed to find their loving furever families. right now we have Sadie and Trixie.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWF1nFJimOvdVJA0p43DpAknSTYxbAu8OTPXBpm7E1xcslkZjsLGxwZSkkZVo0lAgzFt3WnQjItxYskWgA_DOjhPs85hyphenhyphenJWrQvXKXp35TsMwcWsanIsYC5EZrD6dSmUj8ecwsOHU8fF3k/s1600/sadie.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWF1nFJimOvdVJA0p43DpAknSTYxbAu8OTPXBpm7E1xcslkZjsLGxwZSkkZVo0lAgzFt3WnQjItxYskWgA_DOjhPs85hyphenhyphenJWrQvXKXp35TsMwcWsanIsYC5EZrD6dSmUj8ecwsOHU8fF3k/s1600/sadie.bmp" height="320" width="239" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sadie shown above is our little blind girl although she will almost have you believing she rally can see they way she runs, plays and adapts to her surroundings. She is a playful pup that has so much love to give if only someone would have patience enough to give her a furever home. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB0sdpMv6yvw0k9iPmsGSg-zKm_SAWhX8nhJU6vJWDiRZR2VUTO1peJncDxrTyW0zkjLpi_qE2_1t1N2Hf7zuY8coV7hzkopX8pNzgCyTDKmaiXVcOhhjGxXEmhQ10xCJZqQB-lRRufzc/s1600/trixie.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB0sdpMv6yvw0k9iPmsGSg-zKm_SAWhX8nhJU6vJWDiRZR2VUTO1peJncDxrTyW0zkjLpi_qE2_1t1N2Hf7zuY8coV7hzkopX8pNzgCyTDKmaiXVcOhhjGxXEmhQ10xCJZqQB-lRRufzc/s1600/trixie.bmp" height="239" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Trixie is another sweetie. she love to cuddle and sleep a lot. With sore hips she is a bit slower to get around but that doesn't stop her from wanting to play and do doggie things. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can get more info about both these girls and many more here at <a href="http://www.homelesspawsnj.org/" target="_blank">Homelesspawsnj</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well I think I have taken up enough time for one day. I promise not to be a stranger to blog land anymore and will try to work on getting my crafty mojo back. For now I must run and be off to school.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks for stopping in and have a lovely day. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Its filled with all sorts of witches potions. The tree is made using wire armature for the frame then covered in kitchen roll inked with Dylusions spray inks. It is then covered with a thin layer of clear EP and decorated with various bottles cut out from G45 paper. the bottles are coated with Glossy accent and wrapped in thin wire to be hung. The spiders and bats are done using black enamel gel. The other bottles are miniature wooden spools sprayed black then drawn with skull and cross bones and wrapped with wore to be hung. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now its your turn to show us what Halloween trick or treat your have created. Just link it up at the <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">TIOT challenge blog </a>and we will stop by and take a peak. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On a side note I have to say I am sorry it has been so long since my last post. Life seems to have gotten in the way once again. My broken foot has made it almost impossible to get into the craft room and create so instead I am limited to the supplies I use for classes that I can drag out into the kitchen table for now. 2 more weeks till I can get this boot off and hopefully get back into the craft room. Of course it needs a good sorting now since everything has managed to be thrown in there in the interim. I am counting the days.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Its time for a new challenge over at TIOT. The new theme is "make a scene" so I created this journal page(although I still have to add the journaling). My scene is some children fairies dancing behind the foliage. </div>

Hello again wow I am on a roll this week with another post. Just wanted to share some of my latest projects. First I have to share a picture of our 2 pups and one of our old fosters (Nikki)who came back for a weekend visit. Nikki(smaller black dog in bottom left) came to us as a foster last year. They first though she was a whip whippet mix since she was so skinny and tiny. Turns out she was just very underweight. Once she gained it back now she looks like a lab mix. She even looks like she could be our baby's baby doesn't she? They look so nice and calm in this picture from over a week ago. A big contrast to this weekends catastrophe where our lab decided to take on a skunk and of course was on the losing end. You could imaging the rest. </div>

Ok now onto some projects. These first few were done quite a bit ago but I never got to post them. First up is a altered book page I did for a sample at <a href="http://www.theartsysoul.com/" target="_blank">the Artsy Soul</a> where I teach some. I just love this mermaid stamp from <a href="http://www.stampotique.com/" target="_blank">Stampotique</a> which you can find at The Artsy Soul. The background uses a variety of mediums while the pages on the right are layered to create pockets. Inside the pockets I made some simple ATC's.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a Multi Media layout I taught at <a href="http://www.scrapbookmemoriesnj.com/" target="_blank">Scrapbook Memories</a>. It has a pocket on the left and the background is done using Paint, Dylusions spray inks, UTEE, Crackle and other mediums. The Jelly fish looking flowers were actually done by my daughter with a technique she learned at the Lovin Ink Craft retreat we attended while living in England. It was run by 2 very talented crafters and friends <a href="http://thisandthatwithclarkyj.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Janet </a>and<a href="http://midnight-crafter.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"> Michelle</a>.</div>

Sorry I have been away for so long. Between work business and school ending, my creative mojo seems to have gone on holiday. I finally took some time and straightened up the craft room allowing some much needed creative time. Now a run in with tonsillitis has created a bit of a set back but I am getting back into the groove once again. <br />
<br />
This fortnight the challenge over at <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Try it on Tuesday</a> is "Collage with a creative twist" The twist being we want to see a bit of script or type on your project. This project I had done for the challenge before my tonsillitis run in. It is a technique page I will be teaching at a local store called <a href="http://www.theartsysoul.com/" target="_blank">The Artsy Soul</a> this coming Thursday Aug 1. It uses allot of painting and collage paper techniques coupled with some every day items.<br />
Hope you like it.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I feel like I have been away for a long time, well I have been around but just no time to blog. Lots of work around the house and at work keeping me busy not to mention my accident prone self as usual. Hopefully I can establish some sort of normal pattern again soon. Well Summer is coming at least....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So This fortnight we have a new challenge over at </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Try it on Tuesday. </a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="text-align: center;">The new theme is ' Inventors, Inventions
and/or Steampunk'. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="text-align: center;">We also have a great sponsor this month -</span></span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt; text-align: center;"> </span><a href="http://www.genuinelyjanestudios.com/blog.html" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Genuinely Jane Studios</span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">For my project I have decided to do an altered book</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I used a wheel flourish stamp and cut it out to look like gears. then layered them throughout the pages. The flowers reminded me a little of steampunk and I really liked the butterflies which I cut up and added to some plain flowers to show the butterflies moving.</span></div>

It's time for another challenge this fortnight over at <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Try it on Tuesday </a>and the new theme is "Easter Bonnets/Hats. I decided to make this Alice in Wonderland inspired hat. That movie reminds me of Easter for some reason. My hat is made from paper then painted with layers of paint and crackle before being embellished with lots of G45 cut outs and various flowers and such.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhq54GTduyInLMiFktHGratJDRZSmoQiZ6tFJOfNt3IegWosYGPBfLysQbqfFMr_SUGp9tI-8_qAH-vWrJlQz1EzcnMFAjD_plrrsSvnrA39ItSiJZxHNSEwyPVYLnx6hXCevhv7sUzlMM/s1600/hat1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="306" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhq54GTduyInLMiFktHGratJDRZSmoQiZ6tFJOfNt3IegWosYGPBfLysQbqfFMr_SUGp9tI-8_qAH-vWrJlQz1EzcnMFAjD_plrrsSvnrA39ItSiJZxHNSEwyPVYLnx6hXCevhv7sUzlMM/s320/hat1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The hat is decorated all around so no matter which way it faces you always see something.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

Its time for another challenge at <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Try it on Tuesday</a> and this fortnights theme is "Hearts". Its perfect timing with Valentines day just around the corner. Here is my take on the challenge. I wanted to make a hat but time permitting I went with a layout instead. Maybe I will get to the hat today. I used patterned paper(Prima), Paint(Dylusions), Crackle(TH), Tickets(TH), blue tule, charms and heart stickers(Basic Grey) and twine. The title is hand cut from paper. I used the Tule to create a sort of Valance at the top of the page by sewing and pulling up the tule in a few places then trimming with a bow. Don't know why I did it that way just felt like playing with it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now if you head on over to the <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Try it on Tuesday </a>blog you can see some more great inspiration from my teamies and enter your project. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On another note I seem to have been very busy lately but I really cannot say with what. Time just seems to be flying by and I never have enough time to get everything done. I did manage to finally sort through my craft room again. It seems to have become a dumping ground for anything that needed to disappear quick over the holidays. I also managed to sort through and clean out my daughters crafting mess. What a job that was. It was nice to finally get back into an organized and tidy craft room this week. Well I think I will be off to do a bit of crafting now. I am really wanting to make another hat. Will post if I get it done later. </div>

Its time for another challenge at <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Try it on Tuesday</a> and this fortnights theme is "Lets get Stitchy" and it can be real or Faux stitching. I chose to use Faux stitching in my layout.</div>

Wow I cannot believe it has been a month since my last post. It seems like so much has happened and changed. Right around my last post we were headed for Florida and South Carolina for a much needed vacation and family event. Unfortunately Hurricane Sandy hit home while we were away and family tragedy struck just before the family gathering so it was more of a stressful event than relaxing as thought. We wound up with family gathering for a loss rather than a birthday celebration. When we finally arrived home a week later there was much to clean up and although our house and small development was spared any major damage or flooding the areas around us were not. Family and friends lost homes and belongings. I remember my first drive through one area heading to a friends house it was such a shock. all the debri around and the garbage piled high on the sides of the roads. not a pretty site. Many areas were without gas and electric for such a long time and some still do not have it. It was nothing fun to come home to. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Things now are returning to what they call a "new normal" I guess it is about as normal as it will be for quite awhile. It is so hard seeing places we grew up in completely destroyed. I felt so guilty being away during the worst of it and then again with being one of the lucky ones when we returned. Most time since has been focused on clean up and trying to help where possible so no time for crafting. In fact I did not even walk into my craft room till last week. It was in the same messy state I left it before vacation. But with my darling husbands birthday fast approaching and an idea for a gift in my head my daughter and I had some work to get done. So into the craft room it was to brew up this villians themed hat made of paper. My husband loves Disney villians and while away saw some beautiful hats on display so we decided we would make him our own version for his birthday. Here is how it turned out. </div>

the frame of the hat is entirely paper. It is then coated and layered with photocopies of various villians and layers of paint, crackle, gloss, Gaffer tape, sprays, inks, glitters and such.<br />

Sorry they have been few and far between. My Mother in Law is finally on the mend and things are returning to normal or as close to normal as possible. My MIL still needs someone with her all the time in case of another episode should come on. this will probably go on until they can get a pacemaker in. so probably not completely normal till then but I did make it into my craft room for a few min this week. Just in time for the new <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Try it on Tuesday </a>Challenge and the theme this fortnight is "Halloween" I decided to make a mask for my daughters Halloween costume. Here it is:<div>

I do not know why but I have always loved masks. they seem to mesmerize me. This one is started with thick card then sprayed with Dylusions Granite ink. The pattern is created using a template and Dylusions Mica spray.It is then layered with clear embossing powder and melted. The cobwebs are done using Tim Holtz Halloween stamps and white Stazon ink. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
the decorations are done using used kitchen roll(used to sop up the Dylusions ink). I brushed it with embossing ink then embossed clear. one in place I then added layers of Frantage black powder and melted in place. I like the effect almost like snake skin. the bats are hand drawn , inked black and embossed with black embossing powder.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a closeup of the webs and bats. the mask itself is pretty sturdy as to withstand an evening of Trick or treating. Everything has been double secured in place using Glossy Accents. </div>

I am really hoping October will be much better. As I write this I am once again fighting a sinus infection complements of the fall weather and wonderful allergens in the air. Time has just seemed to get away from me with the start of school and start back at work along with all the other daily trials and tribulations. Today was the first day I have been in my craft room in I don't know how long. Of course I had to put everything away because I left it such a mess then just piled atop it for the last month...It did feel really good though to get inky once again. <br />
<br />
This week over at <a href="http://tuesdaytaggers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">TIOT</a> is the next challenge for the month and the theme is lots of layers. I had started this a bit ago but only got as far as stamping a few images and gluing the book pages together. Today was the day to finish it up.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I loved these fairy stamps when I saw them and wanted to do something whimsical. The background is layered with torn book pages , stamped acetate images and gesso. The outer frame is pattern paper by Basic Grey. the butterflies are also stamped and colored using promarkers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I had made this card for a friends birthday. For my card I used Distress inks for the colors. The butterflies are stamped from Tim Holtz Springtime stamps then colored with Distress inks and embossed. The edging used Tim Holtz winter sketchbook for the branches and urban tapestry for the leaves. </div>

It was quite an adventure taking not just our daughter but her friend also to Disney. We are not quite used to having 2 Tween girls around. One has always been quite enough. But when all was said and done they had a great time. Of course mom and dad need a vacation from the vacation. LOL.<br />
<br />
On a creativity front things have been pretty dry lately. School starts tomorrow so hopefully the days will be mine again. Yippee....
I am still keeping up with the <a href="http://www.papersecrets.net/" target="_blank">Paper Secrets</a> <a href="http://www.papersecrets.net/p/syao2.html" target="_blank">SYAO</a> challenge if only by the skin of my teeth. We are into week # 31 now. It was really hard being away and then just getting back but I managed to finish this weeks challenge. Here is my take on the sketch:

Last Friday my friends and I got together to scrap a bit so I managed to catch up on a few layouts. This is one I did For <a href="http://www.papersecrets.net/2012/08/august-song-lyric-challenge_2.html">Paper Secrets "August Song Lyrics" Challenge</a>. I have always wanted to use this song for a layout but just never sat down and got it started. This challenge made me do so. Another added bit to the challenge was to use Echo park items if possible so I used Echo Park "Paradise" papers. Here is my layout:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used inspiration from the song "In My Daughters Eyes" by Martina McBride. Here are the lyrics...</div>

In my daughter's eyes I am a hero<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />I am strong and wise and I know no fear<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />But the truth is plain to see<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />She was sent to rescue me<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />I see who I wanna be<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />In my daughter's eyes<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />In my daughter's eyes everyone is equal<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Darkness turns to light and the<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />world is at peace<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />This miracle God gave to me gives me<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />strength when I am weak<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />I find reason to believe <br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />In my daughter's eyes<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />And when she wraps her hand<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />around my finger<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Oh it puts a smile in my heart<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Everything becomes a little clearer<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />I realize what life is all about<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />It's hangin' on when your heart<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />has had enough<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />It's giving more when you feel like giving up<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />I've seen the light<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />It's in my daugter's eyes<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />In my daughter's eyes I can see the future<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />A reflection of who I am and what will be<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Though she'll grow and someday leave<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Maybe raise a family<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />When I'm gone I hope you see how happy<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />she made me<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />For I'll be there<br style="border: 0px none; font-size: 1em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />In my daughter's eyes</div>

It is one of my favorite songs and really hits home with the lyrics since my daughter was a miracle to begin with and within the first 6 month of her little life helped me to get through one of the toughest tragedies of mine. I remember spending the hours just staring into her little brown eyes and all the sadness of the day would melt away. </div>
