| I remember reading this before, but I do not remember whether or not I left a review... This is one of those "oh, wasn't that sweet" moments which is really so much more. Harry is growing up along with James. It's difficult to be a good parent when you yourself were inadequately ( or not at all) parented. I think this was a beautiful account of a pivotal moment between father and son. Bravo! Thanks for writing! |

| This was such a tricky story to write, but I really enjoyed it. Yes - Harry growing along with his kids is exactly it - the lessons you learn as a parent. Thanks for your kind review. It means a lot. |

| What a sweet story, I loved it! I can just imagine Harry stumbling through that meeting with James. What on earth would he do if he had to talk to Lily about "girly things?" I love stories about Harry, Ginny and the children. Keep writing. |

| Poor Harry - he'd probably buy a book (in a plain brown wrapper) and hand it to her. But he'd do his best. I like thinking about H/G and their family life - so you'll probably get a few more stories from me. Thanks for reading! |

| Wonderful, as always. I love the easy relationship that Harry and Ginny have forged--that's really what love is all about, right? Being perfectly happy and comfortable with the one you love. And the evident affection in the family is beautiful too. |

| I don't know if JKR had this kind of a happy ending in mind for Harry, but I think an affectionate family and a good relationship with Ginny is just the happy ending I want for him. Thanks for reading! |

| Another fabulous installment from you! I enjoyed this very much - a wonderful read over lunch while I took a break from my 'to-do' list. Such a simple, yet artfully depicted and heartfelt story - it was so real! Your characterizations and explorations past what we 'know' from these characters is fantastic. Thanks so much for sharing with us! |

| Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed it. It's a character-driven piece, so I was worried it wouldn't hold the reader's interest. I'm also glad that characters seemed real. James was hard to capture, but he was fun once I got the hang of him. Thanks for reading! |

This was so good! I really liked how you wrote Harry and Ginny. I could definitely see the canon characters, with years of experience and a lovely life together, in them. I also liked how you wrote James. He seems like any normal boy his age, with his own unique cheeky attitude. I liked how both he and Harry gained more insight into each other and how they interact (sometimes rubbing each other the wrong way). The part about James gaining insight into Albus's behavior was icing on the cake. The following line really made me think of Ron's thing with Lavender during their sixth year:
“That I shouldn’t be kissing girls I really don’t like.”
I was almost expecting Harry to use the story of Ron & Lavender as a parable to James's situation with Violet, but imagining his Uncle Ron all over a girl other than Aunt Hermione would probably have just distracted James from realizing what he himself needed to do about Violet. I liked the way you wrote it better.
Great story. |

| I'm glad that James seemed realistic to you. I had a hard time writing him. I didn't think Harry would be the type to tell stories about his friends - even if they were funny ones. And you're right James would have been distracted by Ron's story. Thanks for reading! |

| I thought this was absolutely lovely and highly entertaining. I found it great fun to see the interactions between the characters as well as James's reactions to things. It was also very well written with no visible spelling or grammatical errors, which is quite refreshing. I could easily see this being turned into a short story and will certainly look for other stories that you write. |

| That was cute. I'm so scared for the day when I have to have "The Talk" with my children. (shudders at the thought). But that's part of parenthood. Very well done. I loved it. |

| I'm glad you liked it. I've discovered that you never get away with one talk - as your child ages and encounters more, you have to keep up with him/her. Luckily for me, I still have a few years before I have my hands full like H/G. Thanks for reading! |

| Love this story! The characters are so REAL! I wondered what Harry would be like as a father and this was the most convincing version of him I have read yet. And the line about what Uncle Vernon said to Dudley and Harry was hilarious. |
