Wow, another great part.  I wouldn’t mind at all if you posted everyday. I wouldn’t mind if you posted the rest of it to day.

This story really hurts, (It is a beautiful and well written story). I have two daughters: 2.5 and 5yo, and I know how sweet, special and sensitive they are. How very much they crave and respond to physical and verbal affection, and how much having their own stuff means to them.
The idea of any child like this not having those things - that sense of being loved and very special ... it's wrenching. We have guardians named, and if anything happened to us, our children would be raised by loving grandparents. When they get older, we may change that to aunt or uncle - because the grandparents might get too old for that responsibility.
I'm also named as guardian to several nieces and nephews.
I have been very saddened about the Iran earthquake, where all these beautiful children were left suddenly parentless.. reading about it in the news made me cry, and I was unable to even focus on work for a few days, just imagining their pain.
Great job. If you aroused emotions like that, this should tell you of the powerful nature of your words!

Why should Lois and Clark wait hours until they meet Robin? It was very moving. It shows that Robin has had a loving mother during his first years, it has given gim power to endure the foster homes. What made me really pity Robin was this: It wouldn't hurt to show her that he was polite. Billy had told him a long time ago all the things to say and do to make adults like you. Of course, his mom had always taught him to be considerate. 'Good manners go a long way', she'd said. She'd been right too. Robin had discovered that he was always treated well when he behaved and minded his manners, which had helped since his mom died. He'd heard enough horror stories of kids who weren't treated very well because of their behavior, so he'd adopted a quiet, reserved demeanor that had served him well. Robin will be okay only after he dares to mishave!

I vote for every day! I used to be a (music) teacher and I could really picture myself in Lois' position, empathizing with this poor little guy who didn't have a home he could call his own.
Are they going flying with Clark or in an airplane???
Can't wait for #9!

Keep posting I really like this story. I usually wait til a story is finished before I get into it, but this one grabbed right from the intro and I have been reading each part as it comes.
This is a very good story, from a different angle, on the LnC episode, very interesting.

Read parts 4 and 5 together. I knew he was the father and I'm glad they've got it together.  As far as I'm concerned, this is a classic. A new twist on an old favorite -

Hi, Great part.

Oh, I'm ready to cry now. That was a very emotional scene for me, especially at 4am in the morning. Great part; I'm looking forward to more!
