A very sweet moment in a man's life.

When you are with your Daddy it is amazing that you revert to 5 years old. It doesn't matter how old you really are.

I hope they have news from Edward's family.

I don't trust this Kate. Bella needs to stay with Edward and Emmett. She knows in her heart this is where she wants to be.  Bella needs to tell them no. Stand up for herself.

Emmett may act all tough, but he is a softee and will support Edward.

This has to be one of the saddest stories I have ever read.

Edward better get new passwords for his computer and a new lock for his door. He also better warn Bella bout Rosalie and Melissa. She needs to be on the look out for fowl play. He also better lock his cell phone.

It sounds like Renee is ready to split the second Bella goes off to college. She is making sure Bella is prepared. I am glad that Bella gets to go and be around a more normal family. Bella's seems sad all the time. Edward is too talented and smart for is own good. He seems to have problems relating to people his own age. They seem too silly to him. Bella acts older than her age because she is always around adults. That is way they relate so well.

Rose needs to get a grip. It is not the end of the world. It is a baby, a blessing. She needs to stop thinking of only herself now. She has to tell Emmett. If she really did not want children she should have had a procedure to prevent pregnancy and not just relied on pills and/or condoms. She left the door open to the possiblitity as lone as she was sexually active. Now she was given a marvelous gift that she needs to learn to cherish.

Yeah for Edward. Maybe Bella will get the stick out of her arse and realize that Edward really is a good guy. She sure isn't perfect herself.

This was such a good chapter. I am so happy that Bella finally took the wall around her heart down. Edward has worked so hard to change and he really loves Bella. I am happy that they had such a wonderful New Years eve.

 Edward needs to explain his past heartbreak Jessica to Bella. It shouldn't hurt him so much now that Bella is by his side. Maybe if Bella told him she loved him it would be easier. Edward would know that they had a future. Either way Edward can't let Jessica mess up what he has with Bella.

I am so glad that Edward felt close enough to Bella to tell his story. This trip has been so good for their relationship. They have gotten so close and haven't had to deal with outside influences. I hope they will be strong enough to deal with the daily grind at home.

I thought the whole bet thing was cancelled. These boys just love the girls out of pure honest affections. Jasper better not be stirring up the pot. Edward is happy for the first time in a long time. Did they ever get the suitcase back from Renee?

I can't believe Edward forgot about the suitcase of toys. They were having such a good time with them. I can't believe Bella was freaking out about moving in together. They have been living together. They just didn't live in their apartments. If you can live together in a hotel, you will be fine in an apartment when you have more space. They get along just fine sharing a bathroom.  That is vital to a relationship.

I think Alice is related to the Cullens.

Great chapter.  There's so much love in that family. 

Edward is such a good friend and fiance.  He doesn't get enough credit.  They rag on him too much. 

I love this story so much. I love the dynamics between the charactors as well as all the facts about marine life. Can't wait for more.

Edward is not good with change. He will be an amazing brother.  He has plenty of time to figure it out his way before the birth.  In a couple of years he will be ready to be a dad. He will realize that kids aren't scary.

Great ending.

It is best that Edward and Bella let the children see their other parent, even though it is tough. This way during the children's more rebellious years they can't say they were kept from their other parents. Edward and Bella can be glad that they are supervised and monitored.  Kids when they want to rebell and get ornry will bring up the craziest things.

I will miss this family.

This has to be the sadest chapter I have read from a story in a long time. I feel so bad for all the Cullens, but especially Edward. He had to see and hold his dying baby brother. He knew there was nothing he could do. Edward took taking care of his siblings very serious and he feels like he let them down in the worst way. They will need some serious therapy in the Cullen family to get past this tragedy. It will always be hard, but Daniel would still want them to live and be happy. He was a very happy child.

They need family counciling were Edward can't hide. Esme brought quite a bit of this on herself with how she acted right after the death. Then getting pregnant so soon after Daniels death. It looks like she is trying to replace him. They have given Edward too much space to wallow. He is now in a place where in might need resident therapy to deal with the death as well as the alcohol problem. He is at the point where he could hurt himself.

Edward's family should have done more to get him help emotionally and mentally. He might have needed an inpatient situation to deal with the death of Danial, hurting Bella and the substance abuse. It is too much for one kid to deal with while facing the normal stresses of home and first year of college. Then he has to deal with a new sibling. They are lucky he didn't kill himself.

This is such a sweet and loving story.

I love this little family, which sounds like it won't be little for very long. I don't blame Bella. I think Edward should stay in the husband catagory and not doctor. He is great in an emergency, she needs her own doctor to take care of her parts. He should only think of her parts in a nonclinical way.

I am so happy for this family. It is time for them to have a happy future together. They have so much to look forward to instead of living in the past.

This was such a beautiful chapter.

Now the family is perfect. I loved the story.

Bella should have been a little more encouraging with her side of the kiss. Her side must have said she was not interested. Edward was being a gentleman and accepting her answer. He wasn't going to push the issue. That was a critical moment and Bella blew it. You can't give mixed signal if you are interested in a person. It is a big risk for Edward to show interest in her. She better be sweet and and not embarress him. She can have a razor sharp tongue. She needs to put that away and be sweet than honey. Edward has been so good to her and her son. Much more than she has been to him.

As some one who works in the healthcare field, you would not believe how many woman get pregnant after being told they can never get pregnant or carry a child. Doctors say this at the time of injury. The human body is amaziling resilent. It can heal better than we can imagine. I have seen many a miricle baby on my ultrasound screen. Bella and Edward should not worry about this  diagnosis. Bella should just heal and leave it up to God if she should have children. She may be surprized. Many are when they don't worry about it anymore.

Bella needs to learn how to be grateful. She did not need to snap at him when he asked for a list of items for Seth. She knows people are after her. She knows the reporters are hounding her. She says she loves her son, so why would she put herself &/or him in danger to go shopping. Edward is trying to help her and keep them safe. If she doesn't care about the safety, then she should just go back to her house. Bella can be so stupid. Why is she lacking basic manners and respect. Alice seems to have been taught these lessons. Bella acts as if she was brought up in a dumpster. She also must have some mental illness that needs to be checked. Her mood swings are ridiculous.

Rosalie needs someone watching her every move. She can't be trusted.  Bella knew there were men in the outside room. She should have dressed appropriately. She could have had at least worn decent PJs. I think likes the President more than she is letting on to Alice or herself.

I am thinking it is James and he is one pervert. I can't believe that the White House doesn't  know that  they have such a big security leak. I am also wondering why they don't want Bella back at her house. I haven't figured out yet what he wants with Bella. I think Edward would keep his popularity if he was truthful to the puplic. He could state that she was moving into the White House because she was being threatened and he felt responsible. This was the only way he could keep the press away from her and her son. She would also be able to work and get medical care for her child.

I am so glad they worked out that communication problem.

Edward better use all of his resources to get Royce. He better not listen to him. Edward better use his power and not give into Royce. There is a way to go in with back up and Royce not know. Royce never said anything about not bringing in the Navy Seals or Special Ops, or the Marines. He just said no agents or wires. Edward can get all of the special forces to sneak in an get Bella and Rose. That is what they are trained to do.

I feel bad for Emmett, but Rosalie got what she deserved.

I loved the story. You tied up everything nicely except the future of Vanessa or did I miss it? I will miss this story.

Edward has come so far. but he is getting depressed because it is taking so long. He is getting tired, but Bella still has faith.

Edward needs to have hope. They are doing great things with spinal therapy and research. But most of all he has Bella's love. That is what she craves most of all. They can buy toys, pumps, etc to show physical love. That is the easy part. They have true love which is the hardest part because you can't buy it. They just have to stay together.

Edward trying to be protective of Bella is backfiring. He is hurting her by not being honest with what is going on with his body and his feelings. I think Bella is worried about her place in his changed life. Will he still want her? His family doesn't like her and lately he acts like he doesn't want her around.

Just found story and it sounds so good.

I am so proud of Bella for standing up for Edward. The essence of Edward is not his legs. He is still Edward and his mom should still love him. He is more than baseball. Bella loves all of him. She is happy that he is alive and that the essence of Edward is still there. He could have been alive, but be mentally damaged, where he wasn't  his true self. He could have just died. Bella realized she has been blessed because she still has Edward.

The females in Edward's family are real bitches. No wonder Edward was so attracted to Bella's sweetness. Emmett is such a good friend to Bella and Edward. Edward needs to talk to the doctor's about his problem.

Bella needs to look into outpatient rehab. This place he is in sounds horrible. Edward sounds like he is getting more depressed.

Edward is so loving in this story. He cherishes Bella so much.

Bella better find him a therapist and fast. He is sacrificing himself for her what he thinks is  her happiness, but it is his depression. Bella only wants him. She won't be happy without him. Edward can't see past his broken body. Bella needs to find help for him fast. He needs to talk to another athlete who was injured and find out how he learned how to live again. Edward will die without Bella. He is actually preparing for his death by pushing Bella away. He wants her to find a new life, so she won't care if he is gone.

I am so glad that Charlie stands by Edward and woke him up to his love for Edward. He needed a good kick in the pants for his self loathing.
