hi there. this is one of my favorite stories but how come i keep getting emails saying you have updated with chapter 13. ive gotten a total of 5 i think but when i check all i see is chapter 12. which ive read before.
Author's Response: Read the response to one of the reviews before this.
WOW! thanks for responding.
ok so my first question is: Are we saying that baby harry is half a year old? He was born in July so that would make sense...
My second question (and u might have answered this in the story, but i forgot) is: why cant harry and ginny just save his parents? i know that time travel is hard but they could just bring them forward, back to the future (hehe) with them (if they do manage to go back the same way they came) though, in that situation i dont know what they would do with baby Harry...
i REALLY appretiate (even if i cant spell it) that you responded to my review.

Author's Response: Yes, baby Harry is half a year old. Well, five months, if you want to get technical, since he was born on July 31 and it is now December 22. The reason Harry can't save his parents is b/c of the time paradox. I'm going with the idea that if you go back into the past, it's in the past, so you'll still have the same future. So, if Harry's parents are dead in the future, then nothing he did in the past will have saved them. It's like what Rowling's done in the Prisoner of Azkaban. Notice, everything that Harry and Hermione did when they went into the past had already happened, even though they didn't know it at the time. And really, this story isn't about them saving the world or whatever; it's about Harry getting to spend one happy, peaceful holiday with all of his family and friends together. And besides, if his parents hadn't died, he wouldn't have been the Chosen One, and everything would be different, and possibly worse.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS STORY!
i wish you would answer your reviews though, i have a few questions...
but this is probly my Favorite H/G story that i have read, and my 3rd fav fanfic out there...So PLEASE KEEP WRITTING!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Most of my responses are "I love your story! Update!" and while I like getting those, I don't really have time to write a million thank-yous, though I think them. So, go ahead and ask! Feel free to message me through mugglenet or on the reviews; I LIKE reviews that make me think. Like, "I really like this, but I didn't understand this, and why didn't you do this?" Those are cool.
I love love love (I think you get the idea :) ) this story!!! I know you`re having some problems with posting the next chapter and I really hope you figure them out soon. thanks for the story!!!

omg. this story made me cry...its so sad.
loved it tho :D
when r u going to update? I loove ur story so please update soon
Author's Response: I'm waiting on my beta to get chapter 13 back to me. I'd sent it to her right before Hurricane Gustav hit, and we were both affected by it. But it should be posted in the next few weeks.
This is fantastic! I really like how you switch between James and Lily and Harry and Ginny. With your writing, you can imagine yourself as a particular character, and James and Lily are portayed as my vision of "perfect parents" I love how you have portrayed them and their antics. I am dissappointed that you haven't replyed yet, but I will wait patiently for you to come out with your next chapter.

I can't wait for chapter 13!! hint hint** lol
Oh that was so sad when James was saying how Harry would live with Sirius. You know most of this chapter I was in verge of tears...but it is an amazing story so far!
are you not updating anymore? becasue it's been almost 4 months since your last update.!
Author's Response: I know...and I do feel really bad about it, but I'm going to try and get another chapter out by September, hopefully. I was working, and I just moved cross-country and I have a new job and so on, and I haven't really had time to write, but I am still trying. I'll let you know if I really decide to stop updating.
Wowowowow!! This is fantastic!! I really can't wait to see the next chapter up! Really great work!
This is going really great!
