Hi Carol. Iike this story. It is so heartwarming and upbeat. I like how you discussed all the fun things you did with your family. Also, putting the Grinch mixed in was a clever move. Great job.

Wow! They all take after Grandma. I hope you keep warm, and have fun fun fun, eat a tad too much, laugh like a lunatic, and enjoy all your family's antics. Karen

Thanks, Karen. I had an awesome time with the girls. We all appreciated being together though their schedules are hectic at times.

These memories are better than a movie, or a bottle of perfume, and only we can make them. Karen

In the 40's here. Keep warm. Drink cocoa. Wear fluffy socks. :-)

As usual, it was so clever and well-written. I like how you bring the Grinch into the story to mirror the happiness he can't steal away even if he tries. Have a wonderful concert and I hope they play Hallelujah. I'll watch for your son's movie.gayla

They did do Hallelujah and the show was fantastic. Had the best of times until we had to walk back to the car...Freezing!

Your attitude and determination is why your novels are so successful. November 2024 will be a month you will always remember. So will your granddaughters. It sounds like your son inherited his creativity from you. He is also to be congratulated on his endeavor. What a remarkable duo.
I guess the Grinch is effective only in the town of Whoville.

Thanks for your kindness and love, Lorraine. I had the best of times and can't wait to surprise them at Christmas. Tonight is Matt's time and I am looking forward to it.

Comment from Julie Helms
How was the Pentatonix concert...I would LOVE to see them! Congratulations again on cranking out that fine novel....62,000+ words...whew! I knew it was way over 10k, but I hadn't been keeping track.
Sounds like a productive, rejuvenating vacation for you.
Enjoy your family and festivities....and just remember the cold snap ADDS to the ambience. :-)

The concert was fantastic and sharing it with my granddaughter was awesome. I'm thrilled with the book, the stories, but especially with the time I spent with the girls. It was awesome.

I am glad your happiness won out, Carol, I must admit I'm not a fan of the film The Grinch, but loads of people I know love it, especially the Jim Carey version. A well written piece, I enjoyed reading it.

Congratulations on finishing your book! How hard you have worked, and yet you have made time for your loved ones and have a lot of happy memories. Well done. Old grinch hasn't succeeded in bringing you down. May you have a happy and holy Christmas season.

Sorry I am so far behind in answering and thanking everyone for their kindness and enjoyment with the story. Three little girls (well not so little anymore) kept me very busy. I miss them already but thankfully I will surprise them for Christmas. Appreciate your time and thoughts as always.
Smiles, Carol

I told you I never had a doubt! I've read the final chapter but I'm waiting until after midnight when Santa-Tom refills our six star stockings, before reviewing!
That's much too cold! Ah, but look at all you've accomplished with "Miracles" and the wonderful memories you are building with your family!
That's enough to take the icy chill out of even the Grinch!
Enjoy your concert!
You suck the marrow out of life, Carol...
As you should!
As we all should!

Pentatonix was fantastic and spending one on one with Carissa was just as great! Sorry I am so behind on answering but there just wasn't enough time with all the stuff going on with the girls. I feel so good about the visit.... and they said they did too.
Smiles, Carol

You definitely prioritized perfectly well!
I'm delighted your visit was so meaningful!

Mr. Grinch doesn't stand a chance when he's up against you. Those 63,200 words are a great accomplishment and so well written you don't need to go back a clean any errors up. Eleanor is great, but what about her beloved? Could he be having adventures in London?

I've thought of poor Charles now and then so maybe I'll have to figure a way to bring him into the stories now and then. Thanks as always, Carol.

Tonight's the premiere and I'm excited for him. He put a lot of work into it. I think it will be released on Christmas Eve...I'll let you know and maybe you'll get a chance to watch it on amazon or whereever it goes...I know it's several places. Thanks as always.
