Oh, Poor Frodo! I know how he feels! I'm not good at ball either. This little boy I babysit tried to teach me to play football, and baseball, and the only game I was good at was soccer, which wasn't really his favorite game. (He had alot of energy too, so I felt like a little hobbit girl babysitting an elf child, crazy!)Good chapter! I'll get around to reading the rest soon, I hope. With school coming, life is really crazy right now. *sighs*
God bless,
Ellie

Author Reply: You too? I wrote that from many, many personal experiences. I just sort of run around on the ball field, hoping the ball dosen't come to me. No, my expertise (so to speak - I'm not really an expert) lies in equestrian sports. And writing. :) But give me a ball and I'm like, "Ooo! Pretty. Lemme throw it!" In the wrong direction! LOL! Glad you liked this chapter. Namarie! And don't worry about the reading. I won't have much time either. School is going crazy for me! *screams and falls on the ground writing* OKay, better now. :) Namarie, mell nin!

Learning to fit in as the new lad isn't easy, I know. But he's doing a better job than he thinks, I believe.

Author Reply: I speak from experience, fitting in as the "new kid" is the hardest, lonliest thing to do. Especially in a new place. And Frodo is very friendly and polite and easy to talk to...so he will do fine. But it will take time to really make some friends. Namarie!

Ah, sweet Sam, looking after his treasure... I think I'd be just as good at town ball as Frodo - so happy to have something more in common with him, even this! :)

Namarie, God bless, Antane

Author Reply: LOL! Well...as his Town Ball experience was written purely from first hand experiences, I suppose you and I have that in common as well! I am like an oaf with any kind of ball! And my dad was a real athlete, too. As Billy Boyd said, "I have a gift for [ball], I just haven't opened it and given it to myself." LOL!! Thanks for reviewing.
