I think this is one of the cutest stories I've read in here in a while! I know it's 2 years later, but just wanted to let you know that I think was fantastic. Great job!
This was beautfiully done. It's nice to read about how they were in younger days, and how the love they shared was something that grew and still continues to grow over time. And cookies!!! Who doesn't love cookies? Terrific job, hon. Thanks again for allowing me into your reading circle.
Just so you know, I am in love with this. I can't even explain just how much I enjoyed reading this story. I smiled the entire time I was reading it, that's for sure! The first chapter was so cute and amazing. I feel like it set a good tone for the entire story, keeping with the fact that Christmas traditions are half the fun of the actual holiday. I loved getting that time lapse from the cute little girl to the seventeen year old one. I loved how they did it every year, it was so cute and really expressed how Christmas really is. I have to admit, when Brian Sr. walked in on them, even I blushed. It didn't help that T gave me the nickname of Reese, so I actually thought it was me... lmfao! The second chapter broke my heart, at least at the beginning. I felt really bad for Reese because it was obvious she loved the traditions she and Brian had and she had to break them for her daughter. It made me really sad. :(( lol. Lexi was adorable and I was so excited when Brian said he was coming home on Christmas. :P The ending tradition I enjoyed very much. ;) Who doesn't like Haner sexy time. But it was really quite beautiful the way you wrote it, and it kind of makes me believe in true love, as corny as that sounds. lol. They were so cute together, it made me smile. All in all, I very much enjoyed this story. I really loved it. Besides one or two spelling mistakes, it was superbly written. Bravo Rhian. <3 :)
