It's such a pleasure to watch Gus grow up in this story. d84;a039; Brian and Justin working together to ensure Gus has a happy childhood makes it especially poignant.
I forgot mention in my review of the last chapter how heartwarming it is that Gus wants to help Joe. The latest lost boy will have to concede to Debbie soon. There's no escaping, Joe, so just be thankful. 😊
ROTFL over Gus taking after Justin with being a chatterbox. Brian had really better watch out if Gus starts spouting PSAs. 😉
Ugh, Melanie and Lindsay's parenting skills are definitely lacking. I hope Mel actually thinks about what Justin told her.
Watch out Disney World! LOL
Thanks for yet another delightful chapter.

Author's Response: Gus is a happy little guy and enjoys the male bonding at B&J's house. I agree Joe has no chance against Debbie. She will know his sotry soon. If the new babies take after their father Brian may have to buy earplugs. I think Mel has a little trouble not letting her resentment of Brian effect her feelings for Gus. Justin will be watching what happens there for sure. Thanks for the multiple reviews!!!! Love to read them!! Bill

Has this been abandoned?
Author's Response: No it has not been abandoned. Sorry for the delay but I have a seriously ill friend in the hospital and that has taken precedence right now. I hope to update soon. Bill

Very good! Love that Debbie did blankets for the babies.
Author's Response: Happy you enjoyed this chapter. Debbie really does love B&J. Thanks for revewiing!!!!! Bill

Thanks for the chapter. It was interesting in that it had just
about everything.
First, Debbie should put that bat away. Given her physical
condition she is not one to win a fight. Plus just suppose Rico or
pal pulled out a gun, Justin did something stupid and got shot. In
short Debbie needs to control her temper before someone gets
hurt.
I found the conversation between Melanie and Justin kind of
disturbing. There it was, Mel’s jealousy of Brian and Justin and
their wealth. I had thought we were finished with that. Alice is
not used as a baby sitter for Gus, and Gus should not be used as a
baby sitter for JR. I think Justin missed the moment and should
have been stronger that how much money Brian and Justin have
is non of her business and that she was way out of line. His reply
was muddled. We heard the same lines said by a few of the
characters. I had it with that.
We are still seeing Michael become more and more irrelevant.
No one seems to care. I have to wonder, as another ready wrote,
how much more Ben will take before he gets rid of him.
Thanks again for the chapter. I enjoyed the chapter.

Author's Response: Hello my friend, Debbie goes with her gut reaction and doesn't always think things through. I think Nico is mostly a bully looking for confused kids that he can take advabtage of. I hope Mel got some food for thought. Brian and Justin just wanted to be sure she understood they were questioning her parenting choices. Mikey needs to start lookng at the big picture and not just how thing affect him. He should have been delighted his daughter got a trip to Disney but instead his first thought is that he doesn't get to go to Disney also. He needs to find a job and not worry about taking trips or he is going to be minus one husband & home. Happy to know you enjoyed the chapter. I always appreciate your reviews because you always make me think about what I have written and look at things from a different angle!!!!!! Bill

Really enjoyed this chapter, Bill! Michael continues to be a whiny, immature, ungrateful man. I'm beginning to think that at partly due to his behavior, JR is going to wind up being a brat. Michael needs.to grow up. Wondering what the boys got from their mom.
Ben's likely to get fed up with his husband's lack of gratitude, and I wouldn't blame him.
Looking forward to your next chapter. Thanks! ~Kim
Author's Response: Thanks Kim, always nice to hear from you and know you are still enjoying this saga. Mikey being jealous of his daughter's Christmas gift is majorly immature! Mikey better get a job soon or Ben will be giving him the boot. You know how great it is to get reviews for a story so thanks much for this review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bill

Even at Christmas Mikey can't see the positive side of things, and how thoughtful Brian and Justin are. He just sees that he didn't get what he wanted, and he what feels he's entitled too... Great update! Hugs ~ Kathleen
Author's Response: We can always depend on Mikey to be a butthead and think only about himself. Gald you enjoyed this chapter!!! Thanks for reviewing. Hugs bacl to you!! Bill

I am so far behind in my reading but I always look forward to an update from you. I love it when Justin takes Michael down - Michael should realize by now that Justin is way smarter than he is and he should just shut up - although it's always fun when he's put in his place. Looking forward to more background on Joe. Brian is right about leaving a 7 year old in charge. I would have told Gus off for hitting but I would also have told JR off for touching - definitely favouritism going on and you can't do that with kids. Looking forward to more.
Author's Response: So good to hear from you. Happy to know you are still enjoying the story. Mikey isn't very good at looking at things sensibly. We will learn more about Joe soon. You are correct both Gus & JR needed to be corrected for their behavior and it is not a good idea to leave Gus in charge of JR. Mel has a lot on her plate but she needs to ask for help. Thanks for the review, you know I love to get them!!!!!!!!!!! Bill

My Sweet Baboo, Really nice update. I'm interested what the PI finds out about Nico, wonder if they find info on Joe? As usual mikey isn't satisfied with his present from Brian and Justin, that guy is never happy about anything, he problemly doesn't know what cashmire is since he still looks like he dresses like Big Q customer! Couldn't belive that Mel was punishing Gus and on Christmas Eve--Miss JR needs to listen to what Gus says or face her mothers ire not Gus. then to threaten the child that he could be stopped from being with Brian on Christmas real classie Mel. People should stop underestatmenting --Justin where Gus and Brian are concerned the man is pure fire when their treated unfairly. Loye you, your Sally
Author's Response: Hello my darling Sally, I think the PI is going to just warn Nico to stay away from Joe and Debbie. I suspect Joe may share some of his life story with Debbie. Mikey is rarely satisfied and always feels like a victim. Not happy his daughter gets a trip to Disney but upset he doesn't get the same trip. Brian could have saved himself some money and bought Mikey's sweater at the Big Q except I don't think Brian would ever buy anything at the Big Q. JR's mommys need to learn not to push her off onto her 7 year old brother. You are correct Justin will never let anyone hurt Gus or Brian. Mel would be a fool to cross him! Always so happy to see your comments!!!! Thanks for the review!!!!!! your sweet Baboo

Oh how I love seeing my favorite story has been updated :)
Great chapter, like always. Gus with his daddies is just too cute to handle. Keep the updates coming!
Author's Response: Glad you enjoyed the update and happy to read the "favorite story". Gus is cute but smart - his nothers mght be annoyed but he was assured of a warm welcome from his fathers. I will keep updating as long as readers keep reviewing!!! Love reviews so thanks for your's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bill

Another chapter- so wonderful. I really like how Justin put Melanie in her place regarding the Gus situation. Now we'll have to see if the information sticks. I hope you plan on writiting about the Disney vacation- that should be an interesting tale all by itself.
Author's Response: Happy to know you enjoyed the latest update. Justin will never ler anyone hurt Brian or Gus if he can help it. Melanie better understand she better not cross him. You are the not the only one interested in gearing about the Dusney trip so I guess that will have to happen. It was not my original paln to cover that trip. Thanks for the review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bill

"Monday, Monday, so good to me
Monday mornin', it was all I hoped it would be"...Mammas & Pappas
that was my moring to day! thank you!
So Nico is still around huh and with a bit of muscle to help. Well, Hopfully between jstin Deb and now Brian and the PI, that shit will get dealt with, without anyone getting hurt. Still a bit concerned for Deb with that situation. I think Joe is wisening up adn realizes that Nico is bad news and better yet, he actually has options. Some of them have really teken him under their wing and will look out for him. He'll catch on to that soon enough I think. Hopefully he's not it any danger from Nico either. He's fond of Gus (who wouldn't be) and I think he'll be a key figure in getting Jo to uderstand the family dynamics. :)
Michael is certainly infuencing Jenny's behavior. Mind you Mel isn't doing any better either. Between those 2, Jenny has the chance to turn in to a heinous little thing especially as a teen. At least she truly understand her limits with Justin and Brian. those 2 will be her saving grace from turning into a spoled little brat!
you know...Mel at one point seemed to undertand that gus shouldn't be left in charge of Jenny. That back then, she ws depending on him too much to look after her for short periods of time. Lindsey I don't think is quite up to standing strong yet. I think in all honesty, a bit of Prozak migh do Mel some good. ;)
Strange that gus would smack JR's hand. that's a typical parent move to do that. He learned that from somewhere....And the fact that Mel is threatening to keep Gus from the boys on Christmas day...I want to throttle her. I really thought she was coming around. That she was grateful to Justin and Brian for all they had done, but she really seems to be reverting back and Lindsey seemed to be unaware of the threat Mel posed to Gus. Justin and Brian won't put up with Mel screwing with them when it comes to Gus. The fact that she seems to think she could "intimidate" Justin was laughable!! She's just so resentful and for no good reason.
All in all a nice christmas Eve dispite Mel and Michael's typical selfish behaviour. The trip to Disney World is going to be epic!! So much fun for them all!
Looking forward to the Christmas chapter!!
thanks!
Cheers,
Author's Response: Hello my Monday Friend, so are you channeling Mama Cass or Michelle Phillips? One the much better singer and the other much better looking. I think Debbie is safe from Nico. I view him as kind fo a bully. He backed down from Justin even before the bat lady showed up. Debbie with a baseball bat is taken from the show, a controversial episode. Joe is slowly coming around but is still cautious. I think JR already realizes not to pin her star to her Daddy. She backed down when Unlce Jus exlained the way things were going to be! I think Melanie has a lot on her plate but it is not fair to push too much onto Gus's plate he is a little boy. I figured Gus had seem or experienced the hand slap over the years. I'm sure Mel did not have the best Christmas Eve ever but hopefully she will think about what Brian & Justin told her. No way are B&J not picking up Gus and taking him to their house. Thanks Elaine for being such a loyal reviewer, you know I love to get them and they keep me writing the story!!!! Bill

So much happening in this chapter. I worry that Nico might try to get back at Debbie. Hopefully Joe takes the talking she gave him to heart. It's hard to understand Michael's and Meanie, I mean Melanie's attitudes. As Ben reminded Michael they don't pay child support, while Justin and Brian pay for JR's school tuition. Melanie seems determined to favor her daughter over Gus. If Gus goes to live full time with Brian and Justin, they could stop contributing to JR, not that they would. You write the best chapters.
Author's Response: Hello my friend, you are a faster reader and reviewer for this chapter. Always glad to know you are still enjoying the story. I think you are correct about Meanie playing favorites. She got some good parenting advice and she better consider it. Mikey is never happy not to be included in freebies. Thanks for the "best chapters" I appreciate it!! Thanks also for being such a great supporter of the story. I appreciate all your reviews!!!!!!!!!!!! Bill

3 chapters in a month what are the odds I can get you to keep to that schedule. I don't bake but I make a great lasagna or Mac and cheese, I like the idea of bribery.... Mel and Michael both looking for trouble and Brian and Justin are all to happy to serve it up. My parents knew better than to let me watch my sisters we fought constantly, I think I was 14 or 15 before I watched them alone and even them they bribed us to behave with money. I hope at some point you write about the Disney trip and I can't wait to see what else Brian and Justin got John and Peter. I am also curious what Claire sent. Yes I caught the blue and pink blankets even though you have never mentioned the babies sexes in the story. I know I checked back meaning I reread about a dozen chapters. I still think the presents I most want to know about is Brian and Justin give to each other.. I can't wait for their Christmas more soon please.
Author's Response: 3 chapters for your birthday month!!! Hope you had a happy birthday. I had a friend over for lunch on Friday and made mac & cheese. My m&c is VERY popular among my friends. I try not to make it too often beacuse it has too many calories. Mel got a double dose of parenting advice and hopefully she will pay attention to it. My brothers were too much older than me for us to fight too much. My oldest brother was in charge when my parents weren't home. I remember telling him once, when he tried to tell me what to do, that he wasn't the little Daddy now because Mom was at home. I think I might have been a little spoiled??? After a couple more chapters here I plan to start my next story whch begins when the babies are born. I think maybe I will do a one shot about the Disney Trip before the next longer story. I actually thought I had revealed the babies's sexes but now everyone knows! Chrsitmas presents will be revealed in the next chapter. Thanks for the review, my review numbers are down so I really appreciate my faithful reviewers like you. Bill
