Hi all, I decided this week, after much contemplation. That I don't have the drive or mental capabilities right now to manage this story at the moment. So I am taking a small break from it. If you go back to the previous chapter you will see that I shortened it, ending in Rowena's Birth.

While I adore my time jump, and the characters that came with it and no mean plan to give up entirely on them. It just too much at the moment for me since the older children are taking more time than I thought they would as their lives are forming in my brain and trying to balance them and continuing on with Rilla who needs the ending I always wanted for her. All in all, I just need time to work things out, maybe pre-write things a bit. Either way, they will be back either under this title or even possibly by a new story.

But for now, I will make this story complete. Though I do promise that I will come back to this one day for the readers who do enjoy it.

I hope everyone has a good holiday season no matter what you celebrate.

Thank you all for the following this story had for the past two years.

Tina.
