They had to be separated due to unfortunate events but reunited in high school during their senior year, where Lily and Colton becomes friends again. Why is a ten year-old getting paid to baby sit? Don’t ask because I don’t know either. Colton was nine and Lily was ten because she was his babysitter at that time. It simply follows the story of Lily and Colton, who met when they were kids. This is one of the cutest love stories I’ve ever read. Life is meant to be lived, and if you’re offered the chance to experience exceptional things with an extraordinary person, then there isn’t one reason in the world to say no. A fun, beautiful and emotional read I would highly recommend! It didn’t take long to read, once I started, I read straight through. I loved how the author was able to tell their story with love and kindness, yet still showing some of the difficulties and hardships these two had to endure. This authors writing and story telling ability was wonderful. She loved him unconditionally and just wanted him to have the most normal life as possible, to be able to fall in love and follow his dreams like any other teen. She never gave up on her son and pushed him to be the best he could be. She was good with Lilly, was always there for her and tried to support her. They were even more amazing together than apart.Īnother character I adored was Colton’s mom. He might not have always understood Lilly’s emotions and what she was feeling, but he did his best and she was always understanding.Ĭolton and Lilly were two amazing characters. I’ve said it before but it bears repeating: Colton is very literal. He is kind and he is exactly what Lilly says he is. He is an artist, he’s a boyfriend, a son, a smart guy. He has Aspergers, but that doesn’t define him. And I feel like I am, too, when I'm with him.”Ĭolton was such a lovable character. Words he's been branded with could never describe him. The one thing I wish I could explain to people is he's not what they think he is. More than anything, I loved looking at Colton through her eyes. She has an endless supply of patients and I completely adored her. She only cares about whats important… him. She doesn’t care what others think of her or her relationship with Colton. I love how she sort of marches to her own drum. Even from her childhood, she’s fun and spunky. Puddle Jumping was a fantastic tale of two childhood friends named Colton and Lilly. Stories that make me feel, make me think, make me love and leave my heart happy. Love is constantly learning about the other person until you go crazy because it will never be perfect, but there's no fault in trying.
