Oh, Paula!! What a wonderful story! So sad in parts but wow, such a lovely happy ending! Did you have fun writing it??! Did you explode or melt or anything? Hehe!!

Thank you for this beautiful story and it's so well-written (as usual!).

And thank you so much for your lovely shout-out and kind comments! I'm glad my sentences inspire you! Yay! Happy dancin'!

Thanks, too, for sharing this week's prompt and a link to the pub. It's always a delight to see your stories in the drafts! 💜
