I am a sucker for good AU, even if it’s just slightly AU. And this is amazing. Oh, so romantic and sweet. Love it!

This story is wonderful. The “having known each other as kids” storyline is a brave one to tackle but you did it brilliantly. The final epilogue is definitely my favorite. I tend to think Pam and Jim would have spent those first couple of weeks fighting it out (complete with middle-of-the-night slammed doors, apology food, and cold showers to combat the not-quite-there-yet sexual tension). Lovely all around. Thank you!

Aww, I must say I am a big fan of all of your stories, and this one was very touching. I love how you write young Jim and Pam. And, I'm sorry for your loss. I hope you write something again soon.
Author's Response: Thank you so much for the compliment and the kind words. I'm working on formulating a couple new stories and I'll be thrilled to hear from you when they come about.

andtheivy, I am sorry that I didn't review this story as each chapter was updated. But in a way, I'm glad that by the time I have time to sit down and read this, it's completed :o)
Once again, I love how you so creatively drew the path for Jim and Pam to get together. In tragedy they found more about each other, revisited old memories, and finally realized that they're Jim and Pam and they're supposed to be together.
The back story you provided for each of them, Pam with her grandparents and Jim with his family, is just another detail that I enjoy from your stories.
Great job!!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for such a thoughtful review. I truly appreciate it. And yes, they're certainly meant to be together. And as Pam realized, had certain things not happened as they did, she and Jim might not have found their way back to each other at a time they both needed it the most.
Always a pleasure to hear from you. Blessings!

I'm an awful, awful reader. I've been following this whole fic over the past few weeks and have loved it but never reviewed - I'm sorry! But now's as good a time as any right?!
I loved that when I finished the first chapter, I thought I knew where it would be heading only to find I was quite wrong! The idea of them meeting before as children was simply adorable and a totally different way of bringing them together than what I'd expected. And the epilogues round that off nicely - taking it slowly as they find their way whilst staying kind, respectful and honest with each other. So sweet, so lovely, so.... when's the next WIP starting?! ;)
Author's Response: Thanks so much for reviewing now! I'm glad you enjoyed it and that it was a little unexpected. For some reason, a young version of Jim and Pam are a lot of fun to write.
Not sure what's coming next... I'd like to try my hand at baby fic, but I also have some retro angst ideas floating around. I'll look forward to knowing your thoughts, and as always, thank you for the support. It's so very appreciated!

That was wonderful. Actually incredible! So sweet and I loved this. Keep going and have a million epilogues, please, please, please!
Author's Response: Awwww, thanks PMH! I think the story has its natural conclusion there, having come quite full circle, but I'm thinking of more ideas and I'll look forward to your thoughts on future stories. Thanks, as always, for being so supportive.

Nice ending, ivy! Very satisfying (even without sexin'). Great line:“Are we going to do this again?” He’d demanded, snatching the wax paper bag from her. “What’d you bring me?” To me it's the mark of a very comfortable (in a good way), realistic relationship.
Author's Response: Thanks, Nan! One of my favorite things about my boyfriend is that he's not afraid to tell me that I'm being insufferable and ridiculous when, in fact, I am being insufferable and ridiculous. I love that he's not afraid I'll stop loving him if he's honest and doesn't try to tell me I'm perfect all the time. I think Jim and Pam love each other enough to not walk on eggshells.
