This just makes me deliriously happy again.
Enough to survive the Olympic induced Hiatus and knowing when it returns, the itty bitty fetus will be an itty bitty baby.

I knew where that place was. It had gotten us to this one.
Awwwwww. Such a sweet story. Thanks, LoveFool!

This was just so lovely. I love how you wrote Jim's thoughts and feelings so real. The way he's so in love, already thinking about ways to take care of his & Pam's baby, and basically awestruck over the fact that they made a baby. Also, Sinatra would totally fits the mood of these two lovebirds. Overall, this was such a great story and the perfect follow-up to an amazing season finale. Excellent job!

This is so unbelievably sweet and very well written. Plus I had "Pennies from Heaven" running through my head while reading.

Trust you to get the fic ball rolling post finale. You made me cry, you know.
Love this line:
"She'd giggled and called me Grandpa and I'd thought, 'One step closer.'"
Just awesome. As is Sinatra, my own son's favorite music since he was a very young boy. If I may:
"Ever since that night we've been together
Lovers at first sight, in love forever.
It turned out so right, for strangers in the night."
Author's Response: Sing it EH! Gosh, how can you not love Sinatra, right? It just makes you feel SO GOOD. As for making you cry...sorry...kind of. ;-) Thanks so much for the review, EH.

This is the ideal follow up to the finale.
"I know! It's like...I don't know, I felt like this...this spell would be broken or...I don't know...I don't want to think about anything else other than...this and..." I love everything this sentence chooses to be! I can hear Jim laughing/stuttering/shaking voice trying to grasp words while his head is spinning, trying to maintain a bit of decorum. PureBliss!Jim speaks so perfectly in ellipses and exclamation points!
Who else sees Jim storing the red Scranton shirt in his keepsake collection? Yep.
"I love your smile." The words had tumbled forth like a new revelation. Like I'd never thought them before, when clearly I had. Clearly all my thoughts just felt...new...today." and "I felt that familiar burning at the backs of my eyes when I pulled away and I pressed the heals of my palms to them, laughing at myself." Beautiful.
Author's Response: I'm glad you thought Jim thinking of keeping that shirt forever was a realistic touch! I just thought it was one of those kinds of days...you'd remember exactly where you were,where you were standing, what you were wearing, etc. etc. Thanks so much for the review!

ah i love it...and mention of their house since they never really showed it much after on the show =]
Author's Response: Oh cool! I love thinking about them in their house. And you're right, we don't get to see it that often, so it's fun to write about it! Thanks for reviewing!

That last line was a killer. Awesome...
Almost better than the last few minutes of last night's episode is the anticipation of three months of reading what talented writers have to say about it. Almost!
Author's Response: I know, I'm really excited to see what people come up with! Hopefully it will be a good summer for fanfic!

*sings* Fly me to the moon and let me play among the stars... LoveFool, this was so joyful, so sublime, I could cry. I'm over the moon today and you're only adding to that happy, happy feeling. I would love to bottle it. Instead, I'll just re-read this glorious fic. Well done, my dear.
Author's Response: hehehe, I LOVE it when people read and get happier! :-) I mean how could you not just be in a sublime kind of mood after the finale, right? ::sigh:: Nan, thanks so much for the great feedback. Here's to season 6, baby!

Okay, I admit, you had me at the title. *grin*
But goodness, you've so wonderfully captured that feeling that you get when something magical and profound and life changing is happening to you and you're lucky enough to realize it in the moment itself. Rare and wonderful, and sort of hyperaware.
This is so perfect I don't know where to start, but if I have to pick out parts to mention, I'm going to choose these. In these few sentences you give such perspective in Jim's life and how new and wonderful this moment is.
We'd recently replaced the old creaking front door with a new one and the fresh, crisp separation from the jam prepared my ears for the following cocoon of silence. Nothing but us, a baby, and a bit of that rarified air that Frank sang about.
We stood together in those two feet of entry way not saying a word. Completely still on the floor I'd tread on through all types of weather. The dirty old linoleum had held me up in crusted sneakers, too tight dress shoes for the winter formal, and cleats that had gotten me into heaps of trouble. But never once had I stepped through this door wearing these particular shoes.
(Plus, I dearly love the thought of Jim Halpert doing this):
I didn't own any Sinatra, but I figured tomorrow I'd go out and get some. It felt like the right time for a little Sinatra.
I also thank you for this:
Clearly all my thoughts just felt...new...today. Like today's the day I'd write a song if I knew how.
Sorry about the gushing, but I truly love this piece. You've outdone yourself.
Author's Response: First off, don't EVER apologize for gushing. lol. Or for picking out PARTS to talk about. What writer doesn't LOVE THAT? If someone tells you they don't love that - they're lying! lol. Second, you're awesome. Thank you so much for such a thoughtful review. ;-) You really made me smile. Glad you enjoyed reading this!

"That hospital is really generous."
In the midst of all the fluff, lines like this keep it SO Jim/Pam.
Author's Response: Thank you! That was one of the first parts written - glad you liked it!

OK all last night I kept thinking I wanted to write something and now I don't have to.
Because this? Is perfect. :)
Author's Response: Ha! Oh is that how you think it works? Um...no...you better get on your j-o-b, Miss Lady. I expect to see some vintage Hugs posted up here very soon!

Beautiful...I particularly like the way you depict the way that true joy drowns out everything else: For the life of me though, I couldn't recall what "annoyed" felt like just then
Author's Response: ::sigh:: just thinking about what these moments would be like for them has me all starry-eyed. Thanks so much for the kind review Broken.

Oh, Lovefool... I'm over here frantically reading What to Expect When You're Expecting and sweating while you're showing the rest of us how it's done.
The good part...Jesus, I was inside the good part.
Wow. Just... wow.
