Thanks! Jessica's a interesting character for me to explore, being a devoted aunt myself, and it's always nice to have an outside-the-team perspective on the Aaron-Spencer-Jack family.

This is wonderful. From Aaron's realizations that he had to let Jack stay with Spencer, to Jessica's jealousy and obvious grief she still felt over the loss of her sister, to Spencer being unable to sleep because Aaron wasn't there -- all of it wonderful. I love the complexity of the emotions conveyed here. An awesome chapter to an awesome fic.

Thank you! Aaron, Jessica, and Spencer are all trying to find and deal with the "new normal" of their lives, which is never easy even when the change is a happy one.

great chapter. Jessica was great. loved Haley's assessment of Spencer. and the sweet ending of course.

Thank you! I remembered that scene in 1.07 ("The Fox") when Haley brought Jack to the BAU and Spencer said that when I was trying to figure out what the extent of Jessica's knowledge of Spencer was before dinner; it seemed like something one sister would share with another.

Awesome work! twistedlogic20 January 3 2011, 04:29:35 UTC

I really liked seeing their relationship from Jessica's point of view, and I think you portrayed it very realistically
Also, I loved the fact that both Jack and Reid wanted to stay together while Hotch was away! Really lovely :D

Thank you! It's hard sharing someone you love, especially when there's a whole other mess of emotions that go along with it.
