Great story. Thanks for sharing.

Marvelous! They're a family!

You, dear author, have a gift for storytelling ... for digging deep ... for getting to the absolute truth of our beloved characters. Well done! My sole complaint is that this is your only story. Why oh why did you stop writing?

So sweet! A clearing of the air that hopefully puts their relationship on the right track for always.

Maybe Jamie is of a mind that his Mom finally found a man, who truly loves her and wants to be with her. Lee makes her so happy, Jamie doesn't want to risk interfering with their time together. What Jamie fails to see is that they also need to be a family!

There is indeed a distinction between "Father" and "Dad." Phillip has matured! I love his revelation about Jamie's behind-the-scenes actions that show, without words, how highly he regards Lee. Now Lee see light at the end of what he assumed was a long, dark tunnel - and it's not an oncoming train!

This is a lovely story - Lee's first Father's Day. Your story is a real treat. Thanks!

Congratulations. This is the first fan fic I have read that made me cry. I'm on page 27 out of 46 pages of Scarecrow and Mrs King fan fic and I just really loved your story of Lee and the boys.

This is so sweet..I am crying now. Beautiful story.

SWEET! I'm Almost crying that's how sweet! I like it!

Very good. Another fine story focusing on Lee's and Jamie's relationship with each other. I like the use of the phrase my father, my dad. They can mean the same, but at the same time be so different from one another.

This is a wonderful, warm, sweet story - Well done! :D

AWWWWW. You need a tissue alert on the last chapter. Very sweet.

Nice job. Either you have a great understanding of the father/dad thing because you expirenced it or because you're observant, but it's the truth. I have one father, and three Dad's, (my father not even close to being a Dad.) So, thanks for writing this, I think I'll have my Dad's read this. A lot of people don't understand the logic, but I'm glad you do.

Overall, I see a story with some strong potential here.

Can I point out a few things that didn't work well for me?

1 - Lee comes across as overly emotional and weepy. You might look at using facial expressions and body language to express his feelings instead of just tears.

2 - The short 'mini-chapters' at the beginning really threw me. You could have written a few extra words or sentences and blended them together very easily. The time tags come under this category, too. They don't really serve much purpose in this story.

3 - There were a few odd spelling and grammar issues, not to the point of detracting from the story, but still noticeable.

4 - In the story you mention several weeks passing a couple of times, but there are only 4 weeks from Mother's Day to Father's Day. You might want to tighten up some of the action between those two events.

5 - Some of the descriptive passages are a bit choppy. You use series' of short sentences that don't flow through my mind smoothly.

On the whole, I enjoyed the ideas presented in this story. Coming from a family riddled by divorce, I can appreciate the distinction you made.

I love it. Bravo!
