I just read the whole thing...and was near tears as I was reading it.  I was jumping and screaming at Kat when she got a hold of the vase the first time and was screaming even more when she didn't break the darn thing.  I knew she'd survive it, but I still went crazy and began to worry.....this was fantastic!

Fantastic writing

I just read right through from start to finish. Like you said, this is for mature audiences only - it was hard to read sometimes because you create such strong images with your words that its almost painful imagining the situation the little girl is in. Great writing.

Hey Hollie, I just put you on my favorites list. I would be happy to go back and look at it from a critique standpoint. I could work in some each day. It was uncanny because as I finished the first part I was thinking I had missed things along the way due to the previous conversation between us. It is actually good therapy for me. So I will need a couple of days from reading due to the number I have today of everyone. I think I can get through on a first read of everything today! I will need a break because I was behind on three other bloggers and caught them up today as well. I am looking at Tuesday for a begin day. Have a wonderful evening! sam

Simply Amazing is all I should say, but can't...

 I'm not sure what came over me but at the end when her sister found her I got that sudden pain of long lost emotion welling inside ( ouww make it stop)

Just amazing and beautiful that you would share this treasure with us.  Congratulations are certainly in order.
