surprises and i don't have a great history, i'm not a big fan at all. so glad Billy went through with it! thanks for the great story Caz!

oh @JayT that was too funny! i'm with @BlindAmbition, i would have lost my shit way sooner! oh what a story they will have to tell! nicely done my friend!

not at all what i expected! riveting, though, and well written

not sure i wouldn't have poured myself a stiff drink when the tiny creature left my apartment a nice diversion for Christmas day

seems we have a lot of good old fashioned romantics here thanks for the smile A!

what a nice take on the elves and Santa's workshop! i'm glad you took the chance and did the story.

a very powerful story Sir thank you for sharing it

this is such a wonderful little love story! Hari was so brave, and Hawk so open to it! and the reaction of their friends when the gift is revealed was one of my favorite parts of the story. thanks again for asking me to be part of the magic!

hello Jakey and welcome to the light! i'm molly i look forward to getting to know you better

Christmas has evolved in our home, so that now it's only the 5 of us. It's quieter, simpler. i'm not sure i like it as much as i once did, though. I want to be with people i love on the Day, that's all i want. This is what we have now. It's my wish that each of you have a wonderful Holiday Season and a Happy New Year. Merry Christmas to Michael and you too.

i really enjoyed this thanks for sharing

thanks! i think it will be a good thing too, but not sure i'm ready to do it myself!

thanks Def! He knows me sometimes better than i know myself

thanks Reader!

thanks jp i know that He will not ask me to do things He doesn't think i can handle. He knows just how hard to push though, so that i continue to grow.

in life, there are unintended consequences. today was full of those for me. getting ready to leave the house just before noon, i asked Phil if He'd like to go to the store with me, as i had to go to WalMart for this week's shopping, and i know He enjoys wandering around there. miracle of miracles, He said yes. He normally passes as the meandering, slow crowds try His patience. unintended consequence number one, had to go to a pawn shop to look at a thing, some kind of tool. unintended consequence number two, He had His own agenda. a trip to Costco to take advantage of a new benefit from the city. now, our town is too small for a Costco, so we had to go 15 miles up the highway to get there. so, we got there, listened to the spiel, got the cards, looked around liked what we saw, and grabbed a bite at the snack bar. unintended consequence three, we weren't done! ran back to Georgetown to pick up Number One from work, then back across town to the Costco to shop, then back to our town to get Number 2 and Daughter from the library. unintended consequence number four, with the Christmas Stroll yesterday and today's adventures, none of the laundry got done. so while dinner is being cooked, laundry has been started. on the positive side of this whole adventure, since Phil was there, and i was not in charge (as i usually am when shopping keeping in mind the given budget) i was able to conquer my anxiety regarding the crowds and the final total at the cash register. i was talking to a friend who has anxiety in just shopping for two. he said that shopping for 5 (my little army) would give him palpitations! i admitted that oftentimes, i do get those. so, i made it. i did very well, received a "Good Girl" for my efforts, and just now a thank you and a kiss. i'm pooped, but i am a happy girl.

you are more than welcome! as for what's next? i'm waiting for you to say those magic words, "hey, could you read something for me?"

tim has done it again. A wonderful story that has love lost, and found again! When Bobby realizes that what he's left behind is what he wants for his forever, he goes all in to find it again! A well done tale about figuring out what's really important.

the way you put words together never ceases to amaze me, tim. when Bobby is trying to get back to the man with the beans, you can feel the anxiety (and i know about anxiety, lol!) and the ending! I knew my choice would cause pain to my family and friends, but I also knew I’d done the right thing. I could feel the love in this house and there was nowhere else I wanted to be. In seconds there were squeals of joy, and laughter as the room filled with five tiny beings all different colours, they zipped around on glowing wings, giggling non-stop. Several other fairies, large and small, joined the group; all were smiling. Onagh pulled me forward. “Everyone, this is Bobby.” Then Onagh kissed me and said, “Welcome home.” just wonderful! thank you, for asking me to be a part of your magic and, as always, for sharing it with us

oh, i am so glad you posted this one! let's all hope that we can figure out what moves us before we've run out of time i know i'm like a record on repeat (did i just age myself, lol!) but thank you for sharing your gift with us

tim these again pack so much feeling, emotion, into so few words! such a gift my friend ❤ the first...just yes. just the other evening i experienced again, laying everything into His hands. this second one? shortly after doing the first, i was doing this. floating, not a cane in this case, but the same destination. thank you, again, for sharing your gift 🎁 with us 💋

well done tim! it's my pleasure to read for you!

i often can't find the words so sometimes less IS more

@Solus Magus thank you for this gift! i can't wait to share it with Sir

you have such a gift, tim so many things i'd like to say, the thoughts are swirling and won't come together in any coherent fashion i am speechless and breathless
