god this one just breaks my heart... jill wanting her mommy, jim being distracted from everything, pam not sleeping until she's with her little girl.... oy.
on a happier note, i love that jill refers to herself as "bean." :o)

That was very well done. I love how Jim was doing his best, trying to take care of both of his girls while dealing with his own feelings. The end was the best, not only did Jilly have a hard time falling asleep without seeing her mommy, mommy needed her baby to fall asleep as well. Really well done.

Aww. Sniff, sniff. This was sad. :( But I loved how you had Jim struggling to deal in a different (but no less real way) than Pam. Excellent job.
And Jilly's the cutest - as always!

sad.. but i liked seeing this vulnerability in the pam/jim relationship. You did a fantastic job portraying what it's like for parents going through a miscarriage, really, really great job!

You already know (more than you ever probably wanted to know ;-) how I feel about this. (Love what you did with the ending, btw.) All too often fics depict Jim the Obscure and Pam Karenina, so I love how you balanced real-life angst (the kind a character like Pam would experience, not the hyper-self-consciously 'edgy' sort) with the humor and love and hopefulness that are essential elements of the show. Well done!

So well done! I love Jim's interactions with his girls. He's so protective of them. I'm glad you've picked up this story again.

It's true, come to think of it, you do write good angst--besides this chapter, "Breakable" and chapter 4 of Baby Talk come to mind. I'm not usually much of an angst fan; writing something obviously sad is the cheapest and easiest way to have an emotional impact on the reader and I think many authors sort of abuse it. The realism and beauty of this, though, overwhelms me. The love and humor in Jim's interaction with Jill coexisting with the sense of grief and anxiety is amazing, and you combine them so perfectly. And, I loved loved loved the ending. Absolutely perfect. Fantastic work.

While this chapter completely and UTTERLY broke my heart (well done, by the way!) I'm glad to see a bit of angst back in this story. You write angst very well! The image of Pam curled up next to Jill made me want to cry. So glad you're updating this story! Keep it up!

Beautiful job, LoveFool. Yes, it was sad, but very heartfelt and realistic.

Oh, poor Jim and Pam. Very well written, I wanted to give them both a hug.
