The 'Fugly Sweater' - everyone does have one, right? Wonderful story and I don't even mind the flood it caused. As for who wrote this? My guess is Cole.
Did I read that right? Only one more chapter? Oh, nnnnnoooooooossssssss......sad face... Ah well. All good things must come to an end, I suppose... Another tearjerker, but a great chapter nonetheless.

Marine Corps Core Values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment: This retired marine lives the code
It took a couple of passes before I could grasp the meaning of these words...but when I did?
I wish I could say I knew which words were gone and which words were new, but I confess I have no clue. But maybe, that's the point. These poems read and sound as they should with nothing tripping my tongue. Bravo to you tim for this seamless exchange.
I liked them all, but Celebration spoke to me the loudest...of happiness and friendship everlasting.
As always, nicely done.
I'm quite impressed that you haven't thrown in the towel after everything you and you're hubby have had to contend with recently.
Renee, I hope thinks get better for you soon.
Hey tim It's funny timing - or maybe not - but on one of my recent walks, I really noticed the "Dogmen" as you've pegged them (quite correctly, I might add) out walking critters that surely they did not pick of their own volition. I wasn't sure where this story was going because of Sam's inner thoughts and all the twists and turns, but I am happy with where he and Randy ended up. You very ably hammered home the idea that it's okay to change something if you don't like it or you're unhappy. Communication is a key part of any relationship - something that Sam and Randy came to realize in time. As always, nicely done.
‘d this tim!!
Both Lev and Jon suffered at the hands of others (I'm assuming Danny was the negative in his and Jon's relationship) so it's really good to see them find each other.
I fully expect theirs to be a lasting love with Lev one day being collared by Jon.
As always, nicely done.
I downloaded this to Word so that I could read it anytime. Caught the ending as a result and I was glad that I did so could prepare myself for what was coming. Didn't help, I still .
This, however, made me smile ...and a nice notebook and some pencils. Nice touch including that tim.
Hey tim Only you can decide if forgiveness is the right thing to do. I don't generally believe that forgiving will make a person feel better or help him/her move on with life. I think we are stronger than that and don't need to forgive what is unforgivable to be happy. As for him being your father? He is that. But, is he your dad? I recall the comment you made recently regarding Mike's parents. It was fierce and from the heart because it was about your mom and dad even if thy be not their names. When all is said and done, do what you need to do to be happy. It's what you deserve. As always, nicely done.
