this was very, very, very well written. i like that you brought the story round full circle, it made it seem very complete. this is a tough thing to write about and you did so beautifully.

My dear G. Clio:

I cannot believe I have procrastinated so long in reviewing this story! But, that means I have been at reading it yet again winks.

Just let me say, you know by now pretty much all my feelings on this story, and your execution of it, but I want you to know that you have my applause. You worked hard on your vision, and you expanded and edited it into something really good (and something, I think, even you will find yourself going back to reading and re-reading).

Thank you for inviting me to be part of the journey.

I think you did a fine job of showing how parents coped under such circumstances. It is so painful when there's nothing to do to ease the suffering of a small child. I can completely sympathize with Marian's attitude about having children, and it reminds me how blessed I feel living in a time when women are not obligated to have them, or as many of them as possible! I think your description of Katherine is hysterical: "Marian could not quite believe she and Robin had created such a well-mannered child together." Geoffrey, of course, makes more sense. LOL
