I once had a puppy suck on my chin, sadly there was no good-looking boy around so it wasn't an interruption.<br /><br />Two small points. 1) Luke's hand(s) slide(s) under the back of Grace's skull. 2) He disengages the piglet's mouth from Grace's chin. As it's written now it could read that he's disengaging it, the jaw, or it, the piglet. Not a problem except that in the latter case you're then calling the piglet "it" instead of "her," where later in the sentence you use "her."Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10261759171411084998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6456386419847525258.post-7853687237897574132013-02-24T16:05:34.715-05:002013-02-24T16:05:34.715-05:00Grace is such a lovely character.
