Another lovely little story. I think I liked the first story just slightly more than this one. Though, because I can only rate on exact stars with no half stars, and no decimals, I can't actually show that I liked the first one more. Since they are both basically "4 stars" when that's all the "drilling down" I can do.

I normally don't add much else except maybe some description of the story. And some character stuff and the like. I will say that, instead of finding that one character, Maria I think her name was, to be a feisty little spitfire of joy, as I'm sure I'm supposed to, I just found her mighty annoying. Irritating. Nosey. Etc. Etc. Bad me, I know. ( )
