You are definitely a teacher through your educating us simply by telling a wonderful story with characters we feel are family to us all! Thanks.

Believe the reaction you get on an extremely well-crafted story! You interlace family drama with history, geography, and culinary education. The ceremony was described so realistically that I felt as though I were there observing in person! This story could go on for years as far as I am concerned!!

In my career in education, I have met a few Henry's and his parents. Elena is slowly wearing down his protective layer. While slowly moving forward - and this is very realistic as these cases go - there is progress being made. Now to find out who is behind the rumor...

Thank you for another vicarious vacation that has whet my appetite for travel, however impossible for me. I love how precocious Liebe is in both questions and observations. The twins aren't far behind!

Chapter 160 The Pastor and the Easter Bunny
pvtguy commented on Dodger's story chapter in Chapter 160 The Pastor and the Easter Bunny
You go, Sue!!! It's about time she showed her true grit! Robbie shows more depth here, though it was always present - simply because he acknowledges the love he has for his new family. His melding both his birth mother and Sue together is a great accomplishment! Sue truly has earned it. She is truly the most outstanding character in this chapter. Well done!! -
And so a plan is forming, however tentative at the moment.
-
Elena is doing great analysis of Henry's responses and what she did and did not ask. All possibilities have to be considered until the evidence limits those possibilities to reality. Henry's a smart kid. It will be very interesting to see how this goes.

Chapter 1 Sentimental Journey
pvtguy commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 1 Sentimental Journey
Very well done! I don't want to repeat the very articulate words already spoken, but just say that shared grief does create strong feelings between those who have gone through similar experiences. My best friend's father was killed in a railroad accident on the evening of the first day of spring when we were in 8th grade. That was 60 years ago, and I still feel it on the first day of spring! My friend has also passed, but we truly cemented our friendship through that shared experience. I see good things happening for Woodrow and Paul.- 70 comments

"She mentioned the story felt like an epilogue, and in a way it is. An epilogue to the entire series. Hopefully, new readers will discover the characters, like them, and decide to tackle the series." I do hope there are more stories about the offspring of CJ and Owen...This could keep you writing, and us enjoying every word, for quite a while! I will agree, @JACC said everything I could have tried to say but not as eloquently. Thank you Carlos for providing such quality reading material!

There's at least enough loose ends to have two or three more chapters, lol! I hate to see good stories come to their inevitable end. What about Alec's business? I'm looking forward to the Last Chapter (boo hoo!)...

Trying to rule Henry out as a suspect or to actually get him to confess is going to be a difficult job - let's see what the contact at home is like.
-
Elena is surely trying to no avail so far. Henry seems to distrust others and doesn't speak - a trait that is perhaps cultural. Let's see the next step.

Chapter 35: Reunion Part II
pvtguy commented on Demiurge's story chapter in Chapter 35: Reunion Part II
While Cam was very forward, he is exactly what was needed to get Finn and Alec on track. I applaud him! @weinerdogsaid, "usually skim over descriptions of intimate scenes because with a few exception of a few most authors say variations of the same thing.But @Demiurgeis one of those exceptions.His descriptions had me engrossed and I read every word." I couldn't agree more! This was more intense without being salacious. -
Chapter 34: Reunion Part I
pvtguy commented on Demiurge's story chapter in Chapter 34: Reunion Part I
Hmmm....how did I know that Finn was going to show up? Fun chapter! -
When one "wakes up" later in life, it is no coincidence to think the past was empty...but it took all that to get Alic to become the person he is today! Same for Finn. Now, I can't wait for the house to sell...
-
Yes, there is codependence with Alic and River, but there is real platonic love that unites them. That they need to grow independently is a given, but their friendship does have redeeming value for both.
-
So they might already have seen this boy. I hope their strategy works without spooking him.
-
So beautiful a statement of true and pure love. There are many my age who lived lives as expected of them (or as perceived expected) but left behind someone they did love. Thank you for being able to express such deep feeling through words.

Chapter 1: Happy Anniversary, Honey!
pvtguy commented on Bill W's story chapter in Chapter 1: Happy Anniversary, Honey!
With the limitations being placed on teachers in many states (just look at my state of Florida!), students will not be able to view the totality of history, but only the views of those in control. We are losing the ability to think critically, to discuss and debate respectfully, and to act responsibly. It is up to all of us who vote to start electing people who will challenge these backward views and adopt laws to protect all citizens!- 48 comments

Very powerful statement of one's eyes being opened to truth and leading to personal freedom. Great writing!

I've been missing this family! The trip sounds wonderful! And the wedding will be simply elegant! Hope the next chapter comes soon!
-
Interesting addition to the development of the story. Looking at the new kid as the source of the drugs simply because he is Chinese and from New York seems the likely prejudicial view of a small town.
-
I look forward to the Anthology, but really look forward to a continuation of the CJ series. Excellent job, as always, Carlos!
-
It would be a plus if they could actually find someone who was using drugs in school and be able to question that student...
