Author's Response: Cool! Thanks much! -P4S

I loved this fun, happy chapter. :) This was the perfect Weckerly family Christmas..loved the prezzies, Annie's scrapbook (and the youtube vid was so cute) loved Spike's time with the twins...awww daddy Spike is awesome sauce, and the pics of the kids are adorable, they're the perfectSpuffy babies. And I agree with Buffy.. Beckham is hot, but of course Spike would hate that he left ManU. lol

Excellent. amazing chappie...I can't wait for more Weckerly Xmas time. :)

Hope you had a great Christmas with your family and may the New Year be truly wonderful! And hopefully you'll give us many, many Spuffy stories. *hugs and smooches*

Author's Response: OK... I'm sure I responded to this, but it's not here ...so, I must be losing the rest of my marbles!

I'm so glad you liked the chappie, AMI, and Annie's scrapbook -she was a little nervous about that... :D

Don't ya just melt when Spike is all sweet and lovey with the kids? ... It's so hard to choose between snarky Spike, sweet Papa Spike , romantic Spike, growly Spike, passionate Spike .... uhhhh - well, good thing we don't have to choose! Just keep reading, another Spike will appear! LOL! Oh, wait until Beckham comes to LA ... Spike may blow a gasket ... if Buffy puts up some Beckham undie posters in the training room, he may really flip out! LOL! Maybe she'll get Faith to put them up for her ... so it wouldn't look like Buffy's lusting after anyone else (which really, she's not) ... but it doesn't hurt to look!

Thanks so much for reading - I always love your reviews! I hope you have a wonderful New Year and I will strive to fill it with Spuffy lovin' ... and angst... of course! LOL! {{{hugs}}} - P4S 2011.01.02

Christmas is for kids and those young at heart and this chapter was the embodiment of what Christmas should be. From Annie anxiously waiting for the countdown to opening presents and Spike counting his many blessings to the kids playing with the box! All in all a very well thought out and written chapter. Loved the description of the unfolding gift presentations, the way that Buffy gave Spike the very books that he had during his life as William, was very touching. The scrapbook drawing was delightful and very humorous with Annie’s depiction of her extended family, especially on You Tube great job! Did she not draw Giles? Anyhow, loved the pictures you put in especially of the babies and the baby opening up a wrapped gift. Believe it or not, I have a small dog at our house that helps unwrapped gifts, in fact the family looks forward to her grabbing a torn corner and tugging and shaking the wrapping paper off. Our kids take many pictures between laughing and giggling of her going nuts tearing off paper.
It would be nice if Spike did his own scrapbook with drawings of his mother, himself as William and his father for his kids. Also, his drawings of what his kids will look like when grown. (I found this great morphing website and morphed my version of what the kids would look like as adults. Here are the links to take a peek, hope they don’t disappoint since they will be beautiful with their parents looks.

Author's Response: OMG!!! I love those pictures! How cool are those! You really nailed Billy (who I imagine growing up to look almost exactly like Spike, but with naturally blond hair) and Annie is so perfect, too! I hadn't really gotten an image in my mind for Dani yet, but that is wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing those!! Do you mind if I use them later? Thank sooo much for those!

I love the idea of Spike doing a scrapbook esp of his mother and father and himself as a young man (human man) ... that's an excellent idea. When I get time to work it in, I'll definately explore his drawing talents ... Annie drew Giles... but she forgot to put his glasses on and his hair ended up a little long - he's in the upper right corner. Oh well, she's six and was hurrying to get done... LOL!

I can't tell you how excited I am about these pictures! Those are just too neat! What is the web site you did them on? I might do JJ too later... I see him looking a lot like Xander only taller and, by the time he's a young adult, more athletic (Xander in the Speedo comes to mind ... @__@) But need to have a bit of Anya in there, too ... I can't tell you how much I love those pictures! Thanks so much!! Will have more of Christmas day in a bit ... my muse decided to go away for the holiday, but hopefully he'll be back soon!

{{hugs}} Hope you had a Merry Christmas and wishing you a wonderful 2011!! -P4S 2011.01.02

Thanks for such a great chapter - I loved the chocolate shoe and especially Annie's scrapbook!! And of course the pictures! Hope your Christmas was merry and Cheers to a Spuffy New Year!!!

Author's Response: Hi Melly! I'm so glad you enjoyed the chapter and all the pictures (sometimes I get carried away with them! :O ) Thanks for reading and stopping in here, will have the rest of their Christmas day as soon as my muse comes back from his holiday weekend ... which will hopefully be soon! :D

Happy New Year! -P4S 2011.01.02
