You really know how to write Matt. He's a fascinating character, and you've made him even more intersting.

I'm so sad they've cancelled the show! I would have liked to have seen how Matt and Taylor ended up according to the writers, but reading this helped. This is a good end for them.

What a wonderful ending!

It's nice to see Matt learning how to juggle his obligations (priority-setting is certainly challenging) and that he's finally relaxing enough to let Taylor in. She will be wonderful for both boys! It seems that on TV, her maternal side doesn't really get to show, as she's constantly trying to prove herself.

Anyway, I'm sad that this has ended, but there's no better place than when everyone is coming to terms with all the profound changes they've experienced. Thank you for sharing your talent for writing with us!

"Nothing, it's just… I love you."

You are SO good, cuz for some reason I didn't even see that coming!

And what a great ending! Nothin' better than Cheerios (the breakfast of champions!) to end a story.

Loved it. :):):):)

"Duck," said Liam and handed him his toy.

"That's pretty good advice," replied Matt.


...Children are incredibly wise, aren't they?:)

Aww, poor Taylor...and poor Matt.

Good chapter though.:)

I hate that Posner guy on the show, he's such an **. :P

It's about time. Now how about a nice wedding--if not Matt & Taylor (with a cute little ring bearer), then Maggie & Eli. I'd love to see it. Or failing that, Nate & Beth.

no no FIN! more more!lol

Well done! Though I wish there had been more Maggie/Eli, but hey, that's just me.

Yours,

Alex

I didn't feel like writing a review for all 3 of the last chapters, but they were all really good. I hope you continue with this same story arc in your next fic.

ah, the days of swimming lessons and Toddler Gym...:)

For God's sake, Matt, don't be such a bloody coward when it comes to Taylor. I think she'd be a great mother. I really love the softer side of Jordan. It's so great to see the softer side of Matt, too. This is really great--and it's beautifully written. I love it.

AWESOME chapter! And they were so cute and couley in the season premiere, I didn't expect them to be that close yet, for some reason.:) But it was great.

I usually review every chapter, but I was so into this story that I read it straight through. I really started liking Matt Dowd back in this episode, and I think he & Taylor are perfect for each other. He's got depths to him that people don't see. I am hoping for a happy ending for Taylor, Matt, & Liam. I'm absolutely furious at Donna for not going to see Jessica.

Both chapters 10 and 11 were very touching. Matt is so very vulnerable at this stage and I'm pleased with how well you've written him - the pressures seem like an overload, but he's still holding up. I'm eager to see how his relationship with Taylor, work, and Liam will evolve together now.

Anxious for more,
- Jess.

wow ireally love the way you have matt here. so vulnerable and yet so stubborn against letting taylor in.
