new reader *waves* Hi !

Just checking in ...loving it up to now ....

Hope this is all in the BD movie !

I think that's a perfect place to end this.  One thing that happens with a lot of stories is that they continue long after they should.  You avoided this and stayed true to your goal from the outset, which was to tell Edward's side of Bells's pregnancy and becoming a father. 

What happens in the last part of BD almost seems like neither here nor there when compared to books 1 & 2.  I personally, as a fan and reader, would have been much happier if they'd been seperate tales.  The story of Bella & Edward's marriage and the birth of Renesmee is complete in and of itself.  I love that you kept it that way and didn't feel the need to carry this beyond into the second sequel (in MPO) and the conflict with the Volturi. 

Great job, as you know this is one of my favorites for so many reasons, and  I look forward to staying in communication with you as my own writing progresses.  Yours has been a wonderful journey and I will miss this story.  Though I may come back and read it again sometime.  Well done!!

Ginnie

I love how thoughtful you are with this story.  I really love this.  I loved the special moments with both Rosalie and Esme.  It's so nice to see how Edward really is feeling the guilt leave.  I bet Jasper will be thrilled!

 

Thanks so much for writing.

This was a great story.  I am facinated with the Cullens as characters.  You did each one justice.  Very enthralling.

Thank you so much for your wonderful story!  I enjoyed it all the way through, look forward to your Epilogue, and look forward to re-reading and savoring it all again and again.  Bravo! :)

beautiful chapter! I do love how you saw that Nessie was the ultimate reason for everything (all the pain and joy) everyone went through. Great Job! It's a great place to stop Edward's story for now. I look forward to the Epilogue. :) Many blessings and success in your writings!! :D

That was a very sweet chapter....between what they said to Rosalie and the special talk between Esme and Edward, I absolutely loved it. I look forward to the Epilogue.

You are so intuned with the characters in SM. I enjoyed how you have put so much of this story together like this story belonged to you. You really did a Great Job!  I look forward to the epilogue.

I really loved the scene between Nessie and the rest of the family :)

Wow... I've followed this fic for a long time, off and on, and I'm REALLY glad I came back to it! I always wondered about Edward through Breaking Dawn, and some of the things he was going through. I feel like you captured his emotions and thoughts to near exact perfection.

I really enjoyed Edward's careful transition from hatred of self and the thing he created into the loving father and devoted husband. I think you nailed it! Also, during Bella's horrific C-section, I absolutely loved how you incorporated their shared love for Renesmee. They both clung to her when they thought everything else was lost.

In case you haven't noticed, I absolutely love this fic. I cannot wait for your double epilogue to tie everything in a neat little package!

Much love,

Darn You Woman!!! Every.single.time! I'm crying AGAIN. Geez...don't even know how to express the awesomness that is you. Rose's torture/Bella's soothing words..Good old Emmett-bless his dead heart-love that guy! Jasper's happy face...FINALLY Grandpa & Grandma's & Carlisle finally being able to release his guilt over changing Edward. OMG...Esme's words to Edward? Absolute P.E.R.F.E.C.T.I.O.N.

THIS...YOU...YOU should've written these books!!! Can't wait for the epi(s) ;+)  and anything/everything else you write for us.  Linda

The feeling was so bittersweet when I saw the new chapter had been posted. I was thrilled to read more, but sad that it's almost over :-(. You have done such a fantastic job capturing Edward. I had tears in my eyes for most of this chapter. There just aren't words for how incredible this story is. I'm a fan forever! I can't wait to read the Epilogue!

Reviewer: FanNan46 (Signed) · Date: August 19, 2010 07:34 AM · On: Absolution

What a wonderful chapter!! Definitely worth the wait!!!  It was so beautifully written and brought everything to a simple, sweet completion.  You are a gifted writer and I really appreciate all the time and work you put into this story.  Looking forward to the epi too!

Best wishes in your future writing endeavors!!  I'll be looking out for more from you whenever inspiration strikes... :)

Great chapter. Loved how you got into Edward's head, to hear his struggles and to finally come to realize his happiness. Also enjoyed the ease of the whole family, the comfort and strength they find in each other. The moment with Rosalie struggling to let Renesmee go was beautifully written, I think it gave her and Edward the moment to reaffirm their love for one another given all the strife and discord in the early chapters. Look forward to your epilogue, this is a wonderful story and thanks so much for writing.

every time you update is a happy day for me. see your story completes everything that was left out so many emotions that were not seen that is why i feel sad that this story is coming to an end, you have captured edward to prefection, i want to tell you that like you i believe Renesmee was an absolution for him, she is what finally gives him the courage to forgive him self. anyways girl thank you for writing it i do wish you could continue it but i'll understand if you don't. than you.

This was just amazing... best EPOV I've read. I'm grateful you stick to canon, your Edward is just as I imagined him while reading SM books. Thank you very, very much for this story. can't wait for the epilogue! Hope you will include the last pages of BD, for me, when Edward can "hear" Bella for the first time, it's the most beautiful moment of their story.

Reviewer: Mayra5 (Signed) · Date: August 19, 2010 12:48 AM · On: Absolution

This just chapter just made me want to cry! I can feel Edward's joy and undying love toward his beloved Bella and now his little angel of a daughter, Nessie. I really do hope you continue those two last chapters at least. I have to say, I believe that you, besides Stephenie of course, have a real grasp on Edward's perspective on life and every time I read a new chapter, it's like I am reading Breaking Dawn for the first time again! Have you met Stephenie in real life? If not I think you guys should meet because honestly, great minds think alike.  ;-)

Can't wait for your final chapters! Great ending for this one and since you seem to know Edward so well, can you tell him I say Hi for me please! (Obviously I'm Team Edward, LOL!) I'll be looking forward to your next chapters and stories! Hope you have a great day.

Sincerely from your fan, 

Mayra.

That was lovely! Such love from all the Cullens'. It'll be interesting to see how Jacob's imprinting is explained.
