This was a very sweet story. :)

Thanks! I had fun writing it. (I don't always get to say that.)

[vaudy]

Thanks so much! I actually always wanted to write for children. I should do something about that. :)

That was absolutely one of my favourite so far!
You're writing style is perfectly simple enough to suit the mood and content of the story - it highlights the message rather well.
I absolutely adored the story! :)

[vaudy]

I'm so glad you commented on the style; I was really trying to keep the voice simple, and it's nice to know I succeeded. :) Thanks for reading!

[smiittenz]

My pleasure! :)
