I was so excited that you updated so quickly.
Amazing chapter. Amazing.
I feel like their relationship will be better... healthier than it was before. She has grown and changed so much for the better. It makes me sad she missed Graces first year but maybe she could have never been where she if things would have been different.
I love how Bella is becoming the mother Grace always deserved. You can tell Bella loves her dearly.
I also loved Edward didn't just jump back into a relationship with her. He loves her so much but is cautious and afraid and Bella is earning that trust back. And how at the end of the chapter they were holding hands and it was just sweet and perfect.
Love this story so much.

59. I Concur Oh my gossssssssshhhhhhhhhhh! Do you hear the angels singing? Because I do!!!!!!! Bella and Cullen are finally coming back together!!!! Ok. *Big breath* How you have moving these two through the months that this rebirth would take is just amazing! You've skipped the routines and mundane crap and gotten to the heart of the journey. You've shown us the hard times that growth drags you through. And the slivers of hope that keep you going along the way. Showing the two sides of the visits to Charlie's grave was so great. Like cause and effect. And so much more. Cullen remembered Charlie's birthday. And, of course, she went to visit him. I don't know if Bella would've gone to see Cullen and Grace if she hadn't found her picture. You're brilliance floors me. I love and hate how Cullen is so tuned in but still on-guard. But he needs to be. Even in his anger and hurt, he is just. Uh! Those principles and standards he holds himself to. Cullen is setting boundaries. And I know this is from a combination of Emmett's words, Jasper's advice and maybe a little self-preservation. It is what he needed to do for himself and for Grace. And Bella. And, as always Cullen rose to the occasion. And the discussion about the implant. I cannot say enough about Cullen's patience and understanding. I shouldn't be surprised that the has gone beyond his profession. And really has thought about the impact. Of course, he's leaving it up to Grace. Of course Angela... first, can I say, if there is ever an Angela Award, your girl's got my vote! Best-Worst Angela Ever! I'll work on the title... I cannot believe she could lift all of that stuff! A checkbook? A ring? A purse? How do you steal the purse someone is using? And then using Bella as a defense!! Not to mention, STEALING FROM CULLEN!!! Ugh! Sucked that Bella had to get hurt, but that's what happens. there are repercussions. Even if they're unintentional. But, they're still in the fight together, so that's something. The longing and the self discipline were fantastic. Again with the scenes that get played over and over again in my head. And my napkin is my savior as I hold on to it and do not touch her. Do not move back the piece of hair that blocks her face from fully being shown. Do not brush the back of my fingers to her cheek that is begging for assurance. Do not place my lips on her nose or chin and goddamn.But then the clinging began. Bella to Edward and me to the screen. Couldn't let go. Catch Me if You Can- So perfect and so playful. It was a whirlwind watching the conversation and loving the euphoria. Perfect that it's about pretending because Bella isn't anymore. And neither is Cullen. <3 <3 <3

Oh my gosh, Blows my breath away that there is a glimmer of happiness there at last. 1 year is a long wait to happiness. Edward seems to have managed it well, I like the conclusion of the Chequebook, I never quite liked Angela. Although now I would love to know who is going to fill this void of both work and childcare.... Fingers crossed its a loving person. I love the fact that Bella went out for lunch with the doctors, this shows both growth and acceptance. I love the fact that shes warmed to Grace. Sheer Beauty. And I love love love love that she has managed to pull off the hardest of things and still managed to keep a little 'original Bella' in the mix. So all in all...............I concur!!!! Off to the beach and then stalk again for a new chapter. Impatient much?

I am proud of Bella. I think that her actions show that she wants to be a better person for Grace and Edward. I would have the exact same reaction as Edward did. I am glad that he backed Bella up with the thing with Angela. That ending was cute. Was he helping her with a school project?

I am so elated! They still have to work for the trust between them. What put a smile on my face is that Bella is actually touching and holding her daughter in her arms and interacting with her and learning to sign as well. Then the other thing that surprised me but in a good way is that Bella was with Edward and his dad at a lunch attended by other doctors. Remember when that wasn't a viable possibility early in their relationship?

Holy frakin crap, you updated like 5 times this week! I didn't even have a chance to get on my computer and review before I got another alert in my inbox! ;D
I'm really loving this story. I was pissed off at Bella for a second but I can't really expect her to be perfect overnight. She is trying really hard. And the "I concur" bit had me grinning all cheesy. I could so easily picture it in my mind.
Anywho, sorry I didn't get a chance to review every time, but I just caught the link where you're nom'd for all kinds of shit so I went and voted for you. Best of luck, this story deserves them all.

Oh I just knew that Angela was bad new way back when Grace would cry when Angela held her. Grace knew that she was a bad person and I am so glad that she is gone. A couple of chapters ago I thought it was the end of the road for Bela and Edward but you have given me hope. Can't wait for more. You are absolutely great.

I was thinking in the middle of that that things might not work out with Bella and Edward but it seems like they actually could work out... I hope!
