    Thanks for sharing your insightful story. You can tell I’m not a writer, I would have been desperate to save that for a book!

    Becoming a parent to two young children would be very hard to do. I would love to see how they do.

    Thanks for sharing a bit bit about yourself and how perception came into it all. I look forward to see how it’s incorporated and how the characters deal with it in the book.

    It always surprises me when others tell me about my children. Then I remember that the face we show others is not always the face we have at home. Family is sometimes difficult to navigate and it sounds like a great basis for the book.

    Count me in, please. Thank you. My favorite part of this post was the story about your son. There you were cataloging the boy you knew, one you were used to mothering, and then in a flash, you saw him as a young man. And the best part is that he’s a happy one!

    I really enjoyed the post and how the same scene can be seen in two different perspectives. Story sounds like an absorbing and interesting one. Thanks for the contest!

    This sounds like a deep novel that may need to be read with a supply of chocolate on stand-by. But I love those kinds of books.
