Dear Diary  by Lily Dragonquill 5 Review(s)

And so it is that Frodo doesn't leave her--but in the end she must leave him. The grief is as terrible either way, I think.

Author Reply: It is... and it gives this story a tragic attitude, knowing that it will end so.

Oh, I love it! You do this so well! You write Primula and Drogo as real people-not too angelic, as I've seen them portrayed in some other stories. And your baby Frodo is sooooo cute! Wow! You've really captured a mother's perspective here. The pride in such phrazes as "my darling child," "our little one," and even "our son" really shines. Excellent! God bless,
Galadriel

Author Reply: Thank you so much! I try my best to capture a mother's perspective. And as for Drogo and Primula - they are the best of parents, but they are not perfect, simply because no one is.

"Drogo is my soul, but Frodo is my heart. He is the one who makes me and my little family complete." Just beautiful!

Some days ago I visited my friend and her little family (do you remember?) and I could see and feel that the bond between mother and child really is something very special.


Author Reply: Thank you! I tried my best in capturing the bond between mother and child. I hope one day I'll do as well as Primula.

Happy New Year, dear!

This is a lovely story, and I'll be sad to see it end. Your Primula is a wonderful mother.

He is the one who makes me and my little family complete.

Awww!

Author Reply: Believe me, I shall be very sad as well. I enjoyed "being" the mother and see Frodo grow through her eyes.

What a warm, loving story. I'm always so happy to see a new chapter appear.

Author Reply: The warm, loving story is slowly coming to an end, I fear.
I'm very glad you're enjoying this, dear.
