For some reason it really fits that Pam would be a winter person. I love that she was the only one that shared Michael's happiness at the first snow fall. Those two have an odd but real connection.

"It wasn’t until the temperature slipped low and frosty, it wasn’t until they started to huddle together under the blankets and whisper because that was what people did in the cold month of December, it wasn’t until she used his oven to make those peanut butter cookies with the Hershey kisses in the middle because those were his favorite, that she realized he was inside of her life and he was inside of her home and between him and the snow she could die a happy woman."
You painted such a sweet and cozy picture with that line.

Perfect. This totally reflects what we were seeing as the season progressed- that joy and confidence in Pam, while Jim seemed to be floundering. In love, no question, but adrift otherwise. I cannot wait to see how you play this out (I'm finally going to have time to read and write fic again! Yay!).
Author's Response: Welcome back, yay!!! (I think you had exams, right?) Thanks for this review, I totally felt that too that this season we were getting that shift of Jim being unsettled and Pam being totally sure, so I wrote it in. Glad it came through as believable! And glad you're back reading and writing ;-)

"She loved him like first snowfalls and scattered ornaments and the scent of pine. She knew him like Scranton in the winter, and December felt like the warmest month she’d ever had."
Son of a gun, that's amazing writing! That needs to be a song lyric, stat! (Stat means now!) :)
What an amazing start to this story! And the fact that it's all right here? Well, that's like opening up a great gift and finding batteries included!
Excellent beginning! I'm off to read more.
Author's Response: lol stat means now! and I'm glad I was thoughtful enough to include the batteries for you!!!

This is wonderful! I was hoping to be a little more helpful and constructive with my comment, but unfortunately i am not as clever with my words as you are, and the only thing i can think to say is that this is wonderful! I am enjoying this immensely. I am always so impressed by the way you write Pam and Jim, but in this (clearly) especially Pam. She's beautifully flawed, so real. I really empathise with her. What a difficult situation! I hope she can work through it with Jim. I can't wait to see if she does. Merry Christmas!
Author's Response: Merry Christmas!! And thank you so much for the review, I'm really glad you read this one and enjoyed it, and I'm especially glad that you empathized with Pam and she seemed so real to you in this. I loved writing this one, so it's win/win. ;-)
