  1. Cole: You never get over losses completely. Even after some time, they continue to touch your heart, but they can give you comfort as well. I hope these vignettes did so for you. Thanks for such a thoughtful review.
  2. Cole: I’m so glad the story touched you. I don’t try to make people feel badly, but I’m glad it made you feel like expressing yourself. In the end, they all got their light in the darkness and that to me is the story. Thanks for such a personal review.
  3. Cole: That’s exactly what I wanted to portray. Thank you for such an insightful review. I appreciate it.
  4. Cole: Thanks for such a touching review. I worried a bit about the first and third vignette, but I was pleased with number two. I got the idea from a blurb on a medical site online about how they first treated cancer. It led to a little research and then Danny started to become real to me and I could hear his mother’s sobbing in the background. The third segment was based on a true story. I knew a guy with the same name and he joked about how there were a thousand people with his name in the state. From there is just came into being. Thanks for such an awesome review.
  5. Cole: Whenever a person says they were emotionally moved by a story, it means the author did their job well. I’m humbled and thrilled by your review. Thank you.
  6. Cole: I’m glad the tale of cold moved you. It’s cold here as well and so it thrills me the message worked. Thanks for the lovely review.
  7. Cole: Your words are both invigorating and encouraging. I’m glad you enjoyed the three vignettes. I wanted to convey a certain concept and it seems these did so. It is the light shining in the darkness which comforts and keeps us moving. That, to me, is the message of Christmas and yuletide. In spite of what surrounds us, forward is comfort, joy, and content. Thanks for such a wonderful review. It means a lot!!!
  8. Cole: Oh, there are lights we leave on for people we don’t even know. I think you are right also there are so many people who a light glows for in our hearts. Thanks for such a thoughtful review.
  9. Cole: I remember flash cubes quite well. I also remember the flash strips and how we would bring film in and not remember what was on it. Even in my twenties in the 1980s, I recall getting pictures back and they were little forgotten mementoes of times with friends and family. Now you take a picture and you know immediately what it is. Back in the day it wasn’t so immediate. Thanks for a thoughtful review and your memories. They are precious.
  10. Cole: People do love handmade things, especially when it comes from the heart. Creating something with you in it means a great deal I believe. I personally cherish those things as special gifts. Thanks for such a lovely personal review.
  11. Cole: Your memory made me remember how we used wax paper as kids as well. I didn’t preserve them quite as completely as that. These are simply dried and glued. I’m so happy the idea of the pictures evoked memories of your family. It is the intent of this door to give you thoughts which warm your heart. Thank you for a gratifying review.
  12. Cole: I’m so thrilled it brought back a memory of yours as well. That’s the point of these Advent windows is to give you a taste of our thoughts and remembrances as the days go by. Thank you for such an insightful and personal review!!!
  13. Cole: I’m glad you liked the story and family history. It was a great time and this fall I enjoyed making the treats for my colleagues as well. Thank you for the lovely comments.
  14. Cole: It’s not herring, red or pickled. If you like words, adding symbols only reinforces it. My idea was to show if I can do it, so can you. I’m worthless with crafts unless its cooking. So go ahead and try doing something like it. I’m only encouraging you. Thanks for the thoughtful review.
  15. Cole: I’m not very crafty really. This was something I felt comfortable doing especially since it involved words, which I love using and manipulating. The flowers were in honor of our garden. I like adding little pieces of myself into communications and the dried flowers seemed appropriate. Thanks for the interesting review.
  16. Cole: I’m sorry. We couldn’t figure out the link thing. Adi posted a copy of the card I created in his gallery. It’s a cherished memory and I wanted to share how I did it. Thanks for the thoughtful review.
  17. Cole: Thanks for the thoughtful review. What’s old is new again, I say. Your lampshade sounds beautiful. I can imagine the light through the delicate colors of the flowers is wonderful. When special things happen, we need to treat them with care and to create memories we can cherish. I appreciate your review.

    Cole: I’m glad the protagonist worked for you. I really love character driven stories. Adam and his grandmother came to me and the rest flowed from that. Thanks for the wonderful review.
