Hey Michael,

I love the episodes where we see the characters that we hadn’t seen in awhile! It was great to see Sarah/Matt/Tori and even Graham again. It’s an interesting dilemma that every couple faces after they separate. I know my parents separated when I was very young, so my parents new spouses always had that awkward moment of discipline, because it’s a touchy subject. I can see how it would create conflict with Sarah and Graham. It’ll be interesting to see how the characters react, because Sarah’s not one to back down from a challenge.

The Molly/Philip scenes were nice as well. I knew she was going to be cold to him, but it was nice that he realized the why behind it. I still suspect something will happen to throw them together again. Claire’s reaction to Philip was spot on as well, she shouldn’t trust him right away, I doubt anyone will. I’m curious to see where her travel leads her, and if she’ll regret not opening up to Tim about where she is going.

Great read Michael! Looking forward to the next one,

d

I really let this story fall by the wayside in a way I never intended. That always seems to happen: when one big thing is climaxing, the unrelated stories go into a lull. I should be used to it as part of the rhythm of FP, given the amount of characters and stories I have going, but things always wind up neglected! The good news is that this is one of my frontburner stories for the immediate future. And the parenting angle is such a natural way of digging into the issues that must exist among these people. I'm pleased that you found it relatable (even if I'm sorry that you had to have the experience to relate to in the first place! Can't be easy on any kid.).

Thanks for taking the time to read and post, Dallas. I really appreciate it.
