Thank you so much Sleepy Translations!!! I was looking at the chapters in another language because I liked the way the story was going with the first few english chapters you posted earlier, I couldn't wait and so I glanced at the russian chapters up to this point, this was exactly what I was hoping for from this story! I don't know how to describe it, but I want more moments like this, proper child-rearing I guess? Even if they are already relatively grown up, Ashley seems to have been lacking the warmth of a mother since her own passed away when she was young.
This and the previous chapter were fantastic! Heartwarming to a very, very satisfying degree. I started reading this story because I wanted something akin to 'Snow White's Stepmother' (novel). It's not exactly the same, and nothing is as cute as Blanche from that story, but given that the first volume won't go on sale to the public till march, I'm dying for more stories like it in the meantime lol. Seriously, thanks for this mass release you posted, I really really appreciate it!!
