Hi.

I Love your story so far.

just thought I should tell you that your German sentence isn't correct. It's: Das ist genug für mich, sei glücklich. I'm not sure if you want to correct it or not.

I just finished reading Cobblestones and  Corsets and cannot begin to convey how very much I enjoyed this story.  C and C held all the elements of a classic fairytale and I enjoyed every moment of the story. You swept me into a faraway place in an era gone by.  One that I could feel and see through the eyes of your characters as if I were there.  Thank You for this "experience".  <3

Thankfully all went well and Bella came through with flying colors, putting Edward's fears to rest. I thought it would be that way for the Cullens, all of them!

Edward kept telling Bella she could do it and have no problems, and he was pretty accurate. It sounds as if it went well with few exceptions! It helps that the queen is family and really likes Bella.

So now, Bella knows better what to expect whe her time comes. I'm sure that though scary, it will help her cope when the time comes for her delivery. The Royal warrant for her recipes was such a thrill and an honor and something the family will work on together!

Fierce Bella, when confronted by the notion of a governess taking care of her children! Kind of  over her dead body, I guess! Their honeymoon has been a good one, despite a few disagreements! Now for the rest of the family, when Esme and Carlisle bring the children. That should be fun!

I imagine Bella will always have a soft spot for the farmhouse where she was born and lived the first sixteen years of her life. Lucky for her, a Royal palace will be the honemoon house she and Edward will share!

Emmett and Rosalie must be so pleased, having a larger more comfortable place to live. A very nice Christmas gift, what with the baby coming and all. It's just so great how life has turned  out for Bella and Charles, with their new family .

Sounds like a lovely Victorian Christmas, with excited children and happy, loving parents, grandparents and aunts and uncles! Edward was probably the happiest of all, as the gift Bella gave him the night before was the most precious she had to give!

Bless Edward for making the first time somewhat pleasurable for Bella. N ot all men would have especially in their time, when wives were supposedly for childbearing and pleasure was not expected. If it happened it was a bonus, I guess.

I'm not sure why Edward is almost as nervous as Bella, unless it's just the newness of their love for each other. It will take a little time for them to overcome their basic shyness and become used to being together. It was very wise of Edward  to discuss putting off their intimacies until he regains his strength, and they are back home. Probably make Bella much more comfortable too.

What a whirl this puts everyone in! I really don't blame Edward for his haste, since he knows how fleeting life can be. Besides, with the queen's permission, who is to tell them no? Surely not his parents who love Bella like their own! I smiled all the way through Esme explaining Bella's "marital duties"! Hopefully it wasn't, close your eyes and think of England!

Now that she has literally saved their son from death, Bella's place in Esme and Carlisle's hearts is cemented for all time! Plus those words of love have been spoken by both Edward and Bella, so all's well that ends well!

Good thing Edward loves a farm girl who is immune to the smallpox, because she knew what to do to save him. If left to the tender mercies of his fancy doctor, he may have died, or been seriously weakened or scarred for life! Loved when she told off that snob of a physician!

Being the gentleman he is, I would be very surprised if anything untoward happened while Bella is staying with him! I see that Bella is not impressed with town, but then she is sure it's not nearly as nice a place to be as the country. She's probably right, too!

It was a bit of a surprise when the vicar told Bella she might be allowed in half mourning  and totally out of it in just a few months!

I would not wish to live in these times , but it's such fun to read about and imagine! I liked that Esme told Bella how Edward felt and I was proud of Bella for being honest with him in return. This changes things between them I think, at least a little.

The fact that he came to see how she was must have impressed itself on Bella, but the doll had to have touched her heart! All the gifts were probably more than she had ever received before. Good to see that she and Charles are on the mend!

Poor thing, trying to do it all by herself! Edward will be sorely tempted to fly to her side. I wonder if he can restrain himself? I hope Charles hasn't come down with anything very serious, and am sure Bella's only exhausted and not really ill.

It sounds like an encouraging thing, that Bella is saddened by the thought of Edward being gone for so long a stretch of time. I know he isn't thrilled about it either, but hopefully they will write to each other and fill the time that way.

Well, that was awkward, and very embarassing for them both! I'm sure Bella has Edward's feelings pegged wrong, and he's was just a bit overwhelmed, seeing her in her shift with her hair down! At least Jasper is happy and can hardly wait to court his Alice!

I figured there would be a lot more food than either Bella or Charles was used to eating. The intrduction to his children went well, as did dinner and conversation. The trip to town may be alarming to Bella but probably a good thing for her to get used to doing.

I would guess that Bella will draw strength at this time of sorrow, if only because she told her mother she would , and to be strong for her brother, too. It would help her to lean on the Cullens just a bit, but I won't bet on it!

I see the way Lady Cullen feels towards Bella , as evidenced by the lovely gift she bought for her birthday. As for Master Edward, how can any son with that kind and sweet a mother, be other than a gentleman, in the true sense of the word? Evidently, he is a widower with children, I'm assuming. Maybe his mother wishes to see Bella with him, perhaps?
