Thank you for your comment Troy, I loved how the story came from the prompt I received and hoped the piece would work in terms of having the fairy tale elements.

This is so beautifully observed. I especially love how you set the story up using the three gifts from Grandpa Oswald and allowing it to unfold so naturally from there. This was one of the few feel-good pieces in this group effort and was a refreshing and joyful read.

This was so lovely and heart-warming, really enjoyed it. Lots of little details throughout and it all feels like it's *you* telling the story of your youth. As Troy says, this is a gem of a feel-good story in the selection.

“I could see more, but so could they.” What a perfect line. Really enjoyed this story, especially the inheritance of three things from grandfather Oswald. It has a fairy tale magic.
