For those of you that emailed from my blog...I fixed the punctuation here. Thanks for the tips!

I've just realized that my punctuation is a little squirly on here. I'm sorry about that...I copied everything from Microsoft Word. Next time, we'll try notepad or something.

Yay! I'm so glad you like the site! I think your project would be tons of fun for kids. You could do it in bedrooms, in classrooms or for birthday parties. Great idea!

I agree! I'm making two more today: One that I'm sneaking into grandma's house as a surprise, and another to send to my sister-in-law who lives across the country and misses her neices terribly.
