Heh, wow you follow up one great chapter with another... and interestingly enough, I'm going to let you in on another couple secrets. Secret Three: I really really really hate dogs. They scare the ever living bejeezus out of me. Small dogs, big dogs, doesn't matter. But this puppy, despite it being a dog, is so incredibly cute. Are they really like this? Who knows.
Secret four: I love cliches. Adore them, even. I love reading what some might consider "cliches". I even had a big literary debate over the merit of cliches once with a friend of mine. And I do love yours, I hope it goes without saying. Even if these don't seem to bad too me. OH well. I love it. So get that next part out, mmmmm'kay?
Author's Response: What?? How can you be afraid of dogs? I just think you haven't met the right one yet, they're oh-so-cute and really very harmless. And I'm glad you like cliches because otherwise, well, I have a feeling you wouldn't enjoy this fic. Haha thanks for reading Doof!

You really had me thinking that the real diamond was going to be in this chapter, first with him trying to pick out the right one with the salesman, then at the end I was thinking he surely had tied the ring to the little cutie's collar...but this was really perfect. Thanks for another super cute update!
Author's Response: Hehe sorry to be such a tease, but I'm glad you still liked the chapter. Thanks for reading!

Well, since it is all about Becky215 and Cousin Mose, then this review isn't for you, its for them :P. Or I guess you can share...
Dogs can totally smile... my dog can. Its such a cute little smile...I just called her over to see if she would smile, but now she just thinks I am going to give her a treat and that didn't work. My dog (female), however, on her forehead had this gorgeous spiral of brown fur on her white forehead... it was just this perfect spiral. but as she grew older, it got less defined, and is now just a brown patch.
I love that the doggy can do a Jim face!!
Oh god, my heart broke as the doggy was left in my room. The first night I had to leave my puppy downstairs, her whimpers broke my heart. I am pretty sure I cried myself to sleep, I just wanted to go spend the night with her. But as my parents told me, that its like with kids, sometimes, you just have to let them cry, and they are better for that. But now my doggy sleeps in my room. We are all much happier (even when she decideds at 4 am that she wants out... and she wakes me up to let her out).
Doggies make me happy. And now after reading this, I have to spend some quality time with mine... granted, this is the same dog who I already took on two walks today, that spoiled puppy.
Author's Response: Thanks for reading! Glad you enjoyed it.

Awww.... look at you, being all clever with your "first you think it's totally going to be a ring and then it's a dog" brilliance! :)
I was thinking about writing a Jim and Pam get a dog fic of my own, but I don't see how it could be as good as this one.
This story just keeps getting better and better! I am very excited to see the next installment. Good job!
Also, I can't speak for CH, but I don't mind if you tell people how wonderful I am ;)
Author's Response: Hehe, thanks Mose! I think you should still go ahead and write your dog fic, personally. And it's a good thing you don't mind me singing your praises because after all the help you've given me, it's going to keep coming. Thanks again for everything!

oh my goodness. you're such a tease. you know what we were all thinking when we read the chapter title. then you outdid yourself by writing a wonderfully non-cheesy chapter that was NOT about proposal but alluded to it. good job. i love how jim's nervously trying to present Hope in just the right way and pam's reaction of "you jerk!" is perfect!
Author's Response: Guilty as charged :) Thanks so much for reading, I'm glad you liked it!

Lovely, lovely, lovely, as always. I love how you make us think you're talking about a ring in the beginning (you tease, you), and your description of little Miss Halpert is simply precious. You've wowed me again with your spot-on Jim/Pam banter, and the humor in this was the perfect mix of fluff and romance. Another wonderful job; I've said it once and I'll say it again: you continue to top yourself with each passing chapter, so this story might have to go on forever so we can enjoy your creativity and the intricacies.
Go start chapter 6. --GMMBBG
Author's Response: You know, you have consistently been the first to review for every chapter. You are speedy, my dear, and thank you so much for all the kind words about the story! Thanks for being such a great fanfic partner-in-crime as well as a great friend.--SHWOP
