Cute story!

Such a sweet One-Shot.
I could totally see Castle like that with their kid.

Adorable!

Loved it

Cute story! They are such a beautiful family. And you are a fantastic writer.

Anyone else notice,though, that the kids are named for Harry Potter's parents...? Nice!

More Shel Silverstein! Castle is SUCH AN ADORABLE DADDY. All I could think for most of this was "Awwwww" EXCEPT. EXCEPT. Then you pulled out the daddy/daughter convo of stories and writers and "It's never just a story" and I love that, always, and this such a unique way of bringing it up. And then it's "You make it quiet, Daddy" and MINNIE and it's back to "Awwwww." This is what you've reduced me to, Joy. Incoherent aww-ing. Thank you.

This universe must never end. Ever.

Ooh wow, soooo sweet! I love this Minnie-Lillian-universe :)

I was just thinking.. Minnie-verse and no Minnie? ;-) I love how she's a storyteller. Very sweet story.

This was absolutely adorable! So many images here to love and savor. I loved the little details on how and where he woke up, snuggled against Kate's body, and you captured that sleep-warm coziness so well that you have when you wake up with someone you love. What also came across really well was that magic, that sense of wonder that Lilian had, all bright-eyed and excited, telling her story, the whole experience of it. I really love how she seems a combination of mom and dad - with her storytelling ability, the never-quiet mind, yet she has a level of consideration and concern (when she worries about his not getting sleep because of her) that I can see coming from Kate.

"You make everything quiet." - yes indeed! :)

That is so sweet. I loved it.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

THIS IS SO OBSCENELY CUTE. LIKE, I MEAN, SICKENINGLY ADORABLE. I CANNOT EVEN DEAL WITH THIS.

So sweet. So fluffy. Man, I love it :)

Awww so adorable :D
