- This was a lovely chapter. I'm betting that Harry won't even mind the bump on the bridge of his nose since it makes him look more like his Dad. Thank you so much for writing this story. I'm enjoying it very much. And I absolutely love Augustus!

- I needed a half a box of kleenex by the time I finished reading the chapter. I'm going to miss Augustusm the old curmugeon! But this was incredibly well-written and I'm looking forward to the next part.

- Bravo! I love this story and you ended it perfectly! I for one would love to see a sequel. You did a wonderful job with this and I'm sure that Harry's life is going to be interesting even with Voldemort gone. Again, bravo!

- I loved this story when I read it right after you posted the chapters last Christmas and I love it even more having spent the past three evenings reading as I take a break from getting things ready for this year's Christmas celebrations.
There are stories that can be read over and and over again with more enjoyment each time. I'm happy to say that this is definitely one of them. I'm positive that re-reading it is going to become one of my Christmas traditions.
Happy Christmas!
Author's Response:
Aww, thanks so much! Is there anything you like about some of the Christmas scenes in particular? I know some of my favorite parts were when Harry visits the poor children and Harry and Sev bond after the big revealing moment. And I also liked the part with Augustus' funeral, because I really went crazy with that tribute and think it turned out well.
I have a new Christmas fic up now called Season of Warmth, in case you didn't know!
Summary: When Severus forces an “Opposite Nature” potion on Harry, Harry acts exactly the opposite of his personal nature, with surprising results. Now Severus must rectify his mistake before Harry turns into the next Voldemort.

Little moments in time and space, interaction and visions behold, what could be, what might have been, and what could happen now. Look now... the whispers are prompting your audience.

- Oh, I REALLY like this! Especially since there was no telling for certain who was the baby and who was the adult till the end. Bravo!

Harry Potter is back at his relatives' house when he receives a surprise. What will this lead to? Is it for the better, or for worse? AU.

- Ewp! What a situation! Exactly who -- or what-- does Harry look like now? I have a couple of ieas, but I won't speculate out loud . I'll just wait until your next post and see if any of my guesses are right. I love the bit with Sirius and Aberforth BTW. And the fact that Minerva adopted Lily. A very nice story.
Author's Response:
I've thrown a loop in...but I'm sure you can predict what will happen.
I've started writing the next chapter, but I got a little caught up with my short story.
maybe if you're lucky, you'll get to read it tonight. maybe, maybe not.
Thanks for reviewing!

Harry liked green. Green and silver. Green and silver tinsel, all over Snape’s couch. And the Potions Master in not impressed. But then he wasn’t in the best mood to begin with.

- Awww! I loved it! Harry gave Severus the best Christmas present right there , I think. And what do you bet that he gets Sev to participate inthe Secret Santa gift exchange as well?
Author's Response:
Thanks! And very nicely said, I agree, I think he did ^^ (interior decorator ^^) - and he probably would be able to get Sev to do it eventually with his puppy dog eyes ^^
Very glad you enjoyed it and hope you have an awesome christmas ^^
