I LOVE how you've taken this familiar scene and shown the counterpoint of it with Adam and Elena. Wonderful

Thanks! We saw how Adam's first birthday without his Daddy affected Michael; I thought it would be interesting to have Adam's take on things. Thanks for reading!

Oh ouch -- excellent choice of situation.

Genuis. I love how you took the situation and switched it around to show that not only Michael was in agony that day, but so was his family. Great viewpoint, very touching.

Thanks to you both! I think after the shooting in ONJ, a lot of people considered Adam and Elena sort of "out of sight; out of mind." I didn't. LOL Thanks for reading!

He couldn’t reach the CD player where Mommy had put it, on top of the dresser, so he couldn’t turn it off. Instead, he held his bear tightly and listened, resignedly, to the sound that wasn’t Daddy.

That made me tear up. That poor little boy...

I know I'm in the minority, but I always liked the little guy. A grim moment for everyone, here, but they do find a way to move on. Thanks for reading!
