Bio:
I'm 22 year old, substitute teacher in Louisiana, who's watched The Office obsessively since the middle of the third season. The friendship between Jim and Pam has always been one of my favorite parts and after discovering fanfic a few monts ago, I decided to sign up and share some of my ideas. Hope you enjoy!

Haha! You got everyone characters, but Dwight's reaction was priceless. Telling Pam he's illegaly looked up peoples personal files, and making it seem normal? So Dwight. Keep up the good work!

Just wanted you to know that this is pretty much my favorite thing I've read on this website. It's the first thing I'm rating a 10. I guess I just love Jim and Pam still being in Love all those years later. I had an idea for a series about a girl who lives near the Halperts and becomes friends with them, but after reading this I think you've kind of covered that angle.

Noooooo! It can't be over! This morning I clicked on your story title and I've just been reading (and not doing any work!) for the past two hours. I was so into the story I wasn't checking the chapter numbers, so I finished reading this chapter, went to click Next and there was no button! Please do NOT wait 6 months to sent the next update, I need to know what happens! Would you mind if I went back and reviewed each chapter seperatly? There's just so much to process in each one. Keep up the great work!

Author's Response:

Actually, I'd love it if you left comments for each chapter to say what did & didn't work for you.  (But don't let your boss catch you spending 2 hours reading!)

Thanks for the lovely review!

Summary: “Got it a week after we started dating.” And thusly, millions of girls' expectations climb a little higher. Spoilers for Chair Model.

Only 4 out of the last 7- seems suspisciously low :)

Dan is an Imbecile.

Invincible Jim is the best :)

He wants a ring as perfect as her??? How much cuter can this get? (Great writing there by the way)

Like Pam said in Golden Ticket, Assertiveness is Hot!

Complete bliss at the thought of a lifetime commitment, is it any wonder we love with this man?

Don't lose confidence, she'll say Yes!

Best Impulse Buy Ever.

So sweet I think I'm getting a sugar rush! A wonderful piece of writing, can't wait to see more!

Summary: Jim wants to stop Pam's engagement to Roy, but is forced to watch it all play out because of an obligation to Roy. How far will he let it go though?

Your not crazy, it's a great story! Never have Pam and Jim been brought together so quickly before, under such unique circumstances. And the little reverse Casino Night? Very nice, always kinda wondered what would have happened if Pam had been the one to make the first move.

Well I was going to fuss at your lack of chapters, but if you have more..... JK :) I like the way they are such good friends that they tease each other after such a huge thing as that kiss must have been.

"“I’m not sure I want to know what you think first base is.”"
Very cute :)

Author's Response: Yeah, I wanted to put them in a situation where they were such good friends and see how that might affect they way they deal with their feelings for each other... so we shall see... Also, thanks for reviewing!

Summary: Our favorite couple makes some long-term plans. Set shortly after Goodbye Toby, and about as fluffy as cotton candy. Cross-posted on FF.net, so don't make the mistake of reading this hasty oneshot twice!

Jim, Pam, and a hound named Elvis? It's almost to much cuteness for one story! Fluffy, fun and totally them. Plus I love how you managed to catch those quieter emotions at work throughout, like "and for a moment she feels completely transparent and vulnerable under his gaze" Another great piece of work.

Summary: This is in response to the scene in Season 5's "Baby Shower" where Jim and Pam recall an incident at the laundromat. I thought it'd be fun to create that incident based on details from that conversation.

So glad this got put into the featured story box, because I loved it! I'd never thought how oddly similar Angela and Pam's stories were. I hope Angela really is taking this time in the show to figure out what she wants. And I hope she decides it's Dwight :) Oh and the Jim bit at the end? Adorable! little bits of what their everyday life is like are the best. Now I'll have to see what else you've done.

Ahh so cute! I love romantic letters and that was a great one, plus you included the yogurt lid! This was one of the most mashed up AU scenerios I've ever read, but you made it work out great :) I'll have to read more of your work.

Summary: I just love the idea of Jim and Pam and them having a family so I just write the situations as they come to me. Most likely they won't be in any chronological order, but just as I think of them. Plus, I don't think we'll get to see much of this, if any, on the show - which is okay, because it's about the whole office and not just them...but still, a look once in a while would be nice.

So adorable! I babysit a pair of siblings and the "he took my seat argument" sounds strangly familiar :)

I agree, following the Halpert homelife, would be out of place for the show. Sigh..I guess I'll just have to live it through fanfics!

Author's Response: Thanks for the review, I\'m glad you liked it! I am working on another couple chapters so hopefully that will help with not seeing this stuff on the show :)

Date: June 29, 2009 Title: Chapter 4: As The Story Goes

The explanation defenitly needs it's own chapter. Plus while I'm not complaining about long updates, I do like shorter ones because they tend to be a little more centered and tightly written. The explanation was great, completly beliveable. And for the unbeliveable (like someone leaving both Jim and a hearing impared baby)I'm sure that was pretty hard to do, so kudos for that!

Author's Response: Thanks. I\'ll explain this later, but Chloe doesn\'t even know about Ellie\'s hearing yet. Like my friend\'s kid, Ellie failed the test at birth, but that is fairly commin in children, even ones who have perfect hearing, so they need to get re tested after 6 or so weeks.\r\n\r\nThank you so much. I really appreciate the reviews, especially for this chapter. I can see it so perfectly in my head and have SO much ready for the next part!

Love it again! Thanks for bringing Dwight into the story,it's nice to know that even in an alternante universe, JAM would still be good at annoying Dwight:) This whole story is so true to the characters that "The Office" created, I can't wait to see this amazing next chapter!

Author's Response: Yay glad you liked it! I enjoyed bringing dwight in to the equasion. My goal is to make it as real as possible, so thank you for saying you think it is. You just made my day! Off to start writing the next part now yay.

I love Dorothy! Maybe she could pop up again in a few chapters, with some more advice? The banter and akwardness are great and really true to the Jim and Pam characters. It's like a little glimpse into what they could have been. Hope we are going to see Ellie next chapter!
(We do have a few mother/child spaces in the US, but it's just in front of specialty baby stores.)

Author's Response: I was actually thinking about bringing Dorothy back, I have some really cue ideas for her over the next couple of chapters :) Ellie is definitely back, I\'m writing her now aw YAAAAAAY.\r\n\r\nSooooo happy you are enjoying this. I cannot express how much your reviews mean to me!

In case I haven't said it enough, I LOVE this story! The awkwardness and see-sawing emotions are just so real to the characters.The "psyhic dad powers" were a great touch of the banter we all know and love. So glad Ellie's back, her signing "pretty" was just adorable! Take all the time you need to write, this story's too good to hurry:)

Author's Response: Casinos and Coal Walks your reviews always make me smile like a lunatic, so thank you SO much. I\'m glad you\'re still with me and still enjoying it. I have to say I had missed writing Ellie, so I\'m also glad she\'s back :)\r\nThanks again for being so awesome :)

Date: September 30, 2009 Title: Chapter 8: Sliding Headfirst

Ohhhh that dress is to cute for words, so I'll just move on to the story :) Something I've enjoyed, are the bits that we "know" about them from the show. The "dork" teasing, fantasy football and the six flags are the things that would have been a part of Jim and Pam, no matter how their story as a couple went. The Ellie moments had me laughing, because they were so real! My 3 year old sister, loved to half-eat her food and then share it with you. By the way, cold french fries aren't that bad once you get used to them :). If your looking for story suggestions, I'd love to see more of these little bits of "family life" and the nice lady in the supermarket again, maybe she could talk to Pam this time....?
P.S. The sign language is great addition as usual, keep up the good work!

Author's Response: Your reviews ALWAYS make my day, they really do. I appreciate the time you take to read my story, but then to write such detailed reviews – you’re a legend!!! I’m glad you liked the way I incorporated stuff we know from the show into my story – I really am trying to keep this as real as possible (even though it’s AU.) So happy you like the Ellie moments, feel free to suggest any cute ideas for her. She will be turning one in my next chapter (which is kinda blah right now due to writers block lol.) I am sooo having Jim, Pam and Ellie stopped off for some groceries real soon, so don’t you worry -) Thanks again for sticking with me =)

Date: May 01, 2010 Title: Chapter 10: The Icing On The Cake

I've been AWOL the past 4 months, so I'll have to go back and read chapter nine, but this was adorable as usual. A bathtime scene and Jim playing patty cake? Almost too much cuteness to be believed. Plus you had some great just-getting-to-know-Pam moments, like The Princess Bride and the Neosporian line, (which you just know Jim will tease her about forever) :)

On that note I noticed Pam's being a little artsy with making the cake and then shaping it.(BTW-how can anyone not think that homemade is better?) Since you've kept the characters pretty close to the show, I was wondering if we were going to find out that Pam has an artistic side. Since she's a slightly more confident Pam, would she have taken classes and gotten better? Would she be doing mostly black and white sketches since we know she's awesome at those (deleted scene-Business trip ep) And is there any chance of her having, I don't know done a sketch or two, of Ellie? Maybe as a birthday present?

I'm so sorry, I'm just rambling on writing your story for you, oh but if you ever decide to put Ellie through a "curiously destructive" phase, I work with an 18 month old who is in one of those and I'd be only too happy to pass on his escapades. He owes me :) Maybe daddy Jim is getting frustrated and Pam comes to the rescue ?

I love how naturally you incorporate the sign language, I don't know if I've mentioned it before, but it's so great that you provide the links.

Can't wait to see what happens at the party!

Author's Response: Okay, your review made me want to cry and then squish you to death, thank you so much. I'm sorry my next part is taking forever, but I'm writing it now :D I would LOVE to hear about the little terror you work with, Ellie is definitely going to be getting more mobile in the next few chapters! I'm really glad you noticed how much more confident Pam is in my story. And I'm definitely going to have her artistic side come up - I was actually thinking of Pam doing something for Jim for Christmas. Do you have AIM or MSN? Would love to discuss things with you :D

I don't read stories until there marked complete, if the chapters don't update fast enough I'll drive myself crazy hitting the refresh button. But the title caught my eye, because it's the name to one of my favorite songs, and once I saw the premise of Jim as a single dad I just knew I had to start reading right away. I love the sign language you've included! I know sign language and it's cool to read the discription and go "hey I know that sign", and great to think that hundreds of people could be learning basic signs and phrases if they want to pay attention, Who says fanfic isn't educational :) Please update with chapter 4 soon, my refresh button is begging you!

Author's Response: YAY I am so happy you gave my fic a chance, especially as it\'s still a work in progress. I really am hoping to become faster at updating.\r\n\r\nI\'m so happy you know sign language and are enjoying all the little signs between Jim and Ellie - watch out for Pam trying to sign hehe.\r\n\r\nThanks again for reading AND reviewing, it means a lot to me.

Beautiful writing there. Watching season 4 and 5, I've had that same feeling that I can't believe that JAM is actually real! Now if we can just get Dwight and Angela together....
