This is a brilliant story and just like Cat, I have tears brimming up in my eyes right now. Right in the middle of the library...but I don't care. The actual facts of the story aren't too far fetched, but I DO get the point of it. Oh I love Yeshie too! You have given us a wonderful slice of life that could have really happened to Jesus when he was a boy. He must have been such a beautiful boy; beautiful in much more than a physical way. I LOVE the paragraph where he hugs him, how it discribes what it was like. Wonderful! You, sir, are a gifted writer and I would love to read more of these kind of stories if you have them. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

With Love in Christ,
Chris
