Great job with this chapter! I always enjoy this story line. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as well. I love dogs too. We have 5 dogs one of which is a black lab. He is so sweet. Linda

This turned out well. It's too bad that Troy was bit and needed stitches. Anna would naturally think it was her fault. It seems she was blamed for and blamed for everything before. It will normally take her awhile to not think this way. Good story, Barbara. I want to also wish you a Merriest Christmas and a Blessed New Year, too!

April

This chapter depicts the emotions of the character very well. The dialogue and characterization shows the occurences in the story in a skillfull manner.

You've explained the situation very well, Barbara. It's understandable how any mother would blame herself. It's frightening to imagine what could have happened to a child when there's an accident. Children are so precious. Parental love is very evident in your writing. (And I'm glad to know from your Author Notes that's you're a double-dog lover.) :> Christmas blessings, Josie

    Thank you for the kind review. I wanted to make sure my readers knew I wasn't against large breed dogs. I was raised with a Great Dane. My brother and this dog were playing basketball. The dog got hot and was panting. My brother went for a lay up and the dog tried to stop him and my brother accidently hung his finger on the dogs canine tooth. It looked like he hung it on a barbed wire fense, not a dog bite. Of course my parents had to take him to the ER. Our dog had to be quarentined for awhile because he was too young for his rabies shots. Accidents happen.

I think what's important is you captured anna's insecurity extremely well. It was the same insecurity that allowed the abuse and now questions her ability to be a fit mother. Self doubt is a killer sometimes. Merry Christmas to you and best of luck as you continue. Larry

Barbara, very well written, as always. I love this story. You are always taking us readers into a good path. We have 5 dogs and they are all well mannered, but things like this can happen, even if by accident, when something like a graham cracker is involved. The whole thing can be innocent, but dangerous at the same time. Nice job.

I like the way you tell a story. I can see the events unfolding, that's always important, and you do a good job here. If anything, try slowing the pace down, just a bit, and perhaps give more to description of the places these characters are in.
