Interesting chapter. Seeing the seeds of more storylines/conflicts being planted here - Jim struggling with the dual roles of being Cece's teacher and father (although admittedly 'pay attention in classes even if you don't like them' feels more like straight Jim v. Cece conflict than a contradiction between the teacher and father roles!) and some hints of what you meant about Cece's burgeoning sexuality.
Looking forward to reading more!

Enjoyable chapter! It makes my heart happy to see that the Halperts are doing so well. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for them. Especially the relationship between Jim and Cece. Looking forward for more chapters. :)
Author's Response: Thank you so much for the review! A new chapter just went up, and we are moving into the Christmas season, I'm so excited for the action to pick up a bit in the story and to hear your thoughts as we move forward!

“Good luck with your showing today, also C hates me, and doodles all day--did we know this?” This text screams Jim to me and it made me laugh.
I am loving the progression of this story and really loving how you’re writing this future Halpert family, Olivia DEFINITELY included. Can’t wait for more! :)
Author's Response: Lol I felt like that was very in character for him so I’m so happy you enjoyed that line, it made me laugh too! Future Halperts are an undertaking but I hope they’re believable and I am so excited to take this journey where it’s going! Thank you for being here and reviewing! I love reading each other’s work! :)

Olivia is adorable. Cece is growing into a typical teenager. Jim is back to some old habits with is vending machine snacks. Nice chapter.
I also really like the image of Cece dancing. I grew up with two sisters who danced ballet for pretty much ever. (The music from The Nutcracker will forever bring equal amounts of nostalgia and dread to me) Loved that detail and I'm looking forward to see if it becomes a bigger plot point.
Author's Response: Thank you so much Eric! I love Olivia, I’m excited there’s a third Halpert child. “Old” Jim will definitely make appearances in this story, especially now that he’s around young people all day.
There will definitely be more about her dancing, and I feel similarly, me and my sisters danced and good God, all Tchaikovsky music still gives me ptsd and I was the one dancing lol. But it was one of my greatest joys growing up too! Thank you for being here and continuing to review!
