So...

I decided to take Sephrena up on her challenge to write a longer story for the Christmas challenge. This is actually the story I started writing before changing horses and submitting the other one. I decided to post the other one, because I wasn't sure I could find the energy to finish this one. :)

Sephrena's challenge and my own muse would not let the story rest in peace, though. Like with all of my own work, I am not completely happy with it--it can always be better. No matter HOW many times I read through my stories, I always seem to find another typo... There also is always more that could be added.

Anyway, I hope it is good enough that you enjoy it. I will admit, I made MYSELF cry, at times...so, be warned!

HUGS!
