John may not have always been the best father, but he did the best he could. I'm so glad you enjoyed!

Oh my! I loved this! That's how I see John too! He isn't gonna put his head in the sand and pretend that things are what they are. He can't.

Thanks so much for my lovely ficlet. *clutches fic tightly*

What a beautiful way to wake up to my birthday!

You're very welcome, thank YOU so much for all your kind comments on my stories! And you're right about John. The first version of this drabble included a part about the choice he had to make. Stay and pretend, or leave and do something. Unfortunately I couldn't make it work in the word limit so it had to go! I'm so glad you enjoyed, and have an awesome day!

Nicely done! And that last line is SO John. Perfect!

Thank you! I haven't really done a lot of John perspective and I'm finding I'm really enjoying doing it! He's really a great character and I think I'm going to try to write more John fic.

More John is always a good thing.

Greedy bitch huh?

On your birthday you can get away with being greedy. And you're right, more John is ALWAYS a good thing.

Yep this is the John we met, I have no idea why the major hate on by the show on his character, but *shrugs*.

This piece was spot on and moving :)

The character assassination of this last season annoyed me too. So glad you enjoyed!

family dinners, an honest job that paid the bills, a limitless future with a wife that he loved
That's a wonderful description of the life that his sons will never have. Well done!

Thank you! At least John had happiness for a little while. So glad you enjoyed!
