WOW...Another Great chapter in your book, I love reading your story! I know that I haven't been able to leave some reviews for you lately, but I was writing that story for the contest. So now I am getting caught up with yours. I love how your story is going with Anna. Such a great at showing Anna's insecurities as she still believes anything she does wrong is going to make Troy leave her. Also how Anna tries to have normal feelings and reactions to everyday life. Your story is such a good read and I can't wait to read more of it! It was a pleasure to read and to review your great work! :)

Thank you for the kind review and encouraging words.
Comment from dejohnsrld (Debbie)
I remember the Indian Blanket he did. Beautiful-keep harping. Sometimes I think men like the attention they are getting when we nag. This is another well written chapter. I think all mothers blame themselves when harm comes to their children. Probably more so in this case though. Happy New Year!!! Debbie

Happy New Year!! I agree, when my boys got hurt, I always figured I could have prevented it. Anna has self esteem issues. Thank yuo for the kind review.

Great, heartwarming story for a New Year's day. I found myself hoping that this accepting loving family can help melt away Anna's insecurities

Another new tear..they're coming quicker and quicker..pretty soon I won't want to sleep for fear of missing something.. Very good chapter,,so sad the scars, the insecurities and fears that abuse leaves in one's life. God bless and Happy New Year.

Excellent chapter. Anna's insurcurities are easy to see in this chapter. I'm ready for her to get a little self esteem. Great job.

I am working on that, but it can't happen over night or it won't be realistic. Thank you for the kind review.

Hi Barb
I simply love your very natural way with your dialogue and how you showed how Troy doesn't want to show or say how much pain he really is in.

My guys are like that. My third son broke his arm playing street hockey when he was in the 6th grade. He came home, I was standing over the stove stirring something. I remember it like it was yesterday. He stood in the kitchen doorway and calmly said, "Mom, I think I broke my arm." I looked up and said, "I think you did too." The bone was sticking out of an open wound. I rushed him to the ER. He never shed a tear until that night in bed, then the tears flowed. Thank you for the kind review.
Barb you are welcome.
Your son must of been brave or he was in in shock of what happened to him.

I don't know, he's 26 and still has a scare on his arm from the bone sticking out.

Hey, Barbara. Continuing excellent writing. Excellent interpersonal dialogue. Very real sounding. Small nit: Looks like a typo, misspelling 'stitches" Best, Dan :))

Thank you for catching that. My brain works faster than my fingers often, but of course sometimes my brain doesn't work at all. Thank you for the kind review.

What a lovely ending to this chapter, to have such a positive thing happen to offset the accident.
You do an excellent job of showing Anna's insecurities as she still believes anything she does wrong is going to make Troy leave her. Excellent dialogue that conveys characters' personalities and attitudes well. :-) Brooke

OH FART!!!!! I hate it when I do that. I will immediately fix that. Thank you for your eagle eye.
Comment from N.K. Wagner
Anna's well-conditioned. Everything is her fault. Does she apologize if someone doesn't like the current weather? (I'm not being sarcastic - I did.)
This is coming along great, Barbara. :) Nancy

I am sure she would, her self-esteem is that low. I appreciate your kind review.

Hi Barbara,
A good chapter. I've certainly missed a few in the interrim. Your characters have developed nicely and the story certainly has taken shape very well.
