Having gotten my children somewhat pre-growed myself, I know firsthand the upsets known by children coming to appreciate new homes and relationships, May these four come to know they are indeed. Love the underc introduction to their new home and family. OK⁸⁸ib Author Reply: If there's one thing that grows as this family expands, it's love. | |

Ah, yes, the fight over the window seat. So familiar... Two favourite bits: I think it’s some sort of parent thing. and Never by accident(!) Thank you for this morning's smile. Author Reply: Glad I could provide a smile. Thanks for taking a moment out of your busy day to read. | |

Ah, but how I remember just such interesting situations when it was our kids. Very realistic! Author Reply: Thank you for the encouragement, Larner. I keep trying to think of situations where some kid I knew was trying to fit into an established "family". In some ways going to a residential school was like being a part of a large adopted family and any new kids that came in really had to work hard to be a part of the group. I hope I can continue to make this story believable. There's still a lot to cover. :) | |

Such a very realistic picture of the situation! I'm wondering now what the different inhabitants of the Great Smials are going to think of this new arrangement and what the gossip will be? Author Reply: Thanks, Dreamflower. I'm glad that it felt real. You've also given me some fuel for thought. The reaction and the gossip are something that needs to be delt with. | |

Regi grinned at him. “Your parental joys just doubled, dear cousin.” “Yes they have,” Pippin said and his smile was genuine and bright. What a wonderful chapter. Pippin is such a good father. :) Author Reply: I had been struggling with how to end this chapter and then that little scene just appeared. It really does show that he thinks being a parent is worth a little lost sleep. Thanks for the quick review. I was impressed. :) | |
