Awww!  The letter is visually beautiful and Dean's wish for his mom is heart-wrenching.

Author's Response:

Hey Shannon. Thanks for the review(s)!

I can only imagine that a boy who has lost his mommy would wish for that. And it hurts me to think ANY boy would need to write such a letter...

I hadda go for the poster instead of simply typing it. Felt wrong (not just coz my spellcheck went completely nuts with the words...lol). Seems just the right thing to show the letter as it would have looked like. 

Glad you liked it!

Cheers, Ilka

This is really sweet! Even Bobby got in on it. Couldn't help saying something about this one too. I loved  it! It explains why Dean is so skeptical about anyone offering him something good and why he expects bad to happen all the time. And Sam the fact that Sam and his greif were mentioned here too, too much! I think i'm going to cry!

Author's Response:

Hey, sorry, this took so long. Been reading and voting for the awards... Still, THANKS for reading and reviewing! I feel so bad for making all you fine people cry... most of the time... But then again, I am glad that the story reverberates with you! 

Thx!, Ilka

*sniff*  Now it's even sadder!!!  Great job capturing the tragic life that is the Winchesters'.  Now I gotta go dab my eyes!


Author's Response:

Oh dear, another one in tears... Glad that you still found the time to review and send me some stars!

*holds out a tissue* 

Thanks! Ilka

This is sooo sad, I have a little lump in my throat, I know what it feels like to want your mum back for Xmas.

Great little story and again, I loved this letter. Mary xx

Author's Response:

Oh dear. Sorry for that. I mean it's cool that you could relate to Dean and Bobby. But I didn't want you to remember sad things in your own life. Sorry.

Thanks again. For reading and reviewing. 

Hugs, Ilka

Thanks again. I am glad you liked it and left me two reviews. It was fun to do (that sounds mean, but hey, angst is fun).

Cheers,

Good greif woman - Are you trying to make people cry or WHAT???? okay- I'm gonna go watch something funny now- like baby seal hunts or something - geesh... you certainly win the award for heartbreaking angst- alright- I guess I have no choice but to Feature this bad boy- two parter heartbreaker- break-out the kleenex tear-fest... Warn a girl- huh??? hahahahhahaa....

Author's Response:

WOW. Oh my... Jeez...*is speechless* Just saw the ribbon.... dude... *clears throat*

Thanks hun... I didn't expect that. Guess that means more wee!chester sadness from me in the future huh? Topped off with a sad Bobbster? Alrighty...

Thanks hun... seriously. Means a lot to me.

Back to the story and your kind words now: you know me, chica! I am always trying to make you guys cry. If I succeed it means the story just about right. 

baby seal hunts? now... well... compared to the fic you might have a point there. To tell you the truth, I did tear up myself when I wrote this second part... *sniffle*

Um. So, you think I should put a warning there? I did put one on the second chappie... Not enough? *scratches chin*

I think I owe you a box of kleenex and Dean for one night now... sending them to ya tomorrow? That alright? Dean only wearing the kleenex box? Or you want some hurt and gunp*** too?

Hugs you tight (no, I dont normally hug this much... but the feature and all those tears you and I shed over this sad thing kinda call for a special huggin ceremony. It's like with Bon Jovi. Hugs rock. On occasion.).

And you were afraid you wouldn't have time....I have to say that the last line really brings this home.  I've got the chills now....

Author's Response:

And I dont have the time. I would rather work on my Cas letter than working for my dad right now... Dang it. There is always the night...

Mean last line, ain't it? Didn't plan on it to be there. Just wrote itself. 

Hugs and congrats on the feature again! So proud! Finally, you get the acclaim you deserve!

Hugs, Ilka

I feel a tear in my eye. Actually way more than one. Sniff.

Poor Bobby, poor Dean. Sniff.

Where's the tissues?

Author's Response:

Aw, oh dear. Is it a nasty thing to say I am glad this one worked too? Was going for the tears here, I know, and usually Xmas should be a happy time. But there is something about this lil boy and the life he is about to lead that always makes me sad. Even on Xmas.

*hands a tissue*

Here hun, have one of mine!
