Excellent

Another winner, up to your usual high standards. Your writing skill amazes me. I really wanted it to be longer, because I was enjoying it so much, but you told the story that had to told, concisely, so it was long enough. <p> Looking forward to your next fine story.

Damn You

I hate stories like this. While reading, I become the person and all of their emotions become mine. Toward the end of the story, I have trouble reading because of my tears. It takes me forever to complete. Damn You for another fine story. I cannot wait for the next one.

I just hate this stories that make you all misty eyed and makes you think to yourself 'am I really a 'man"?* Sure beats the heck out of reading about "sex" all the time and makes for a great break from reading the same ole same ole.! Ya know what I mean.?? Wish I could find books like this. Thanks for your very good story.! JAG/TSO

Ho Humm - Yawn!

Well written, well crafted, well received, and. . . well it was kinda boring. After reading the whole thing I felt a little disappointed. The story touched all the right spots, pushed all the right warm fuzzy buttons, but somehow felt oddly hollow. I felt we (the readers and I) were given a pacifier rather than a story. More sex certainly would have helped, but I'm not sure that's the entire problem. Lately your stories have taken on a somewhat surrealistic 1950's fairy tale feel, everything will be okay by the end of the episode, and Ward & June Cleaver will persevere, unfortunately there just isn't a beaver.

I could spend days reading the...

...snapshots of life you bring this site.Your writing skills are befitting the effort you've put into it. I only disagree with one point.If life hands me lemons,I let them dry and then make lemon zest,saves me a lot of money at the store!(lol)

Novel or short story

After reading this story, I thought that more development of characters would be in order. Father and daughter as well as Sam, Beth, and Julie would be good candidates. Then I realized that there simply isn't enough room in a short story to do all of that. I guess that's how a novel comes to be. This was an excellent story. It dealt with people's emotions. That is often concealed in other stories by the "hot sex". Please send more our way. Thanks. Rich

You crave for too much happiness, totally fictious and any reality is lost.

Sorry, didnt mean to sound it like that, but thats my take.

You have done better with you other stories.

"Daddy you came back. Don't leave me again, please Daddy. I'll be a good girl, I promise," Alyssa said as she was crying and hugging me.'

A great story

Great story, though I kept waiting for another shoe to drop, perhaps something to do with Beths' parents. It felt like there was another story there that was waiting to be told, i.e. why were the parents so disengaged, a past history? Great story though.

Turn about ...

Thanks for this touching story. I especially liked the turn about when Alyssa started school. Now HE was the one watching the window to see when she would come home! Well done! 5*

A great daughter never leaves.

She just adds to her dad's family.

I have a much loved daughter.

It's just that she adopted me.

I have no biological offspring.

But in her heart.

She is my daughter.

In my heart.

She is my daughter.

Then she got married.

Funny enough she needed to know she is still my daughter.

It was never an issue in my heart.

Once a daughter always a daughter.

Now I am grandad x3.

I love my daughter along with her husband and 3 sons.

Our hearts grow as needed.

Cheers

In the beginning, it is stated that the main character was shy & rarely dated, due to lack of time & money. Later in the story he says he was a bit of a player in his early years. Well, which is it?

Thanks!

A really nice romance!

Well worth the read.

Written 14 years ago, this is a simple story of a father's love.

Few who have not experienced it, understand the bond, be it with a child of blood, or an adopted child.

I believe age and cunning will overcome youth and enthusiasm every time. Being some what of an egomaniac I believe my stories are very interesting. Only the readers can verify or disprove that premise. Several of my stories are based on my own experience or most have a little ...
