At least Frodo will be keeping some of his stepchildren! And I do like the name Squigglefoot. He could start a dynasty with that name - it's as good as Telcontar any day!

They are good at picking names - although I'm glad they avoided Dampbottom. That definitely wouldn't have gone down well.

Author Reply: I've a feeling they'll all come to visit often, that they now have "island fever" and won't be able to stay away for long at a time. The Squigglefoot clan--yeah, why not! It could catch on.

I've observed that first-time mothers are often rather sensitive where their babies are concerned, and don't take well to certain types of joking. The naughty twins are learning, however! And I think they're gonna stick around also, having no attachments back "home"....the BR will not be dull with the Squigglefoot-Bagginses around;)

Our beloved Ada Towerstar--learning to be a father, learning to give that love and nurture and let go as parents must do.

Author Reply: And he's been at it less than a year. Quite a tall order! But all things considered, I'd say he's not doing too badly, and he's having a lovely time. And yes, the letting go...that will be the hardest part. But some will stick around at least--for a very long time!

I still like “Squigglefoot,” however.

And Sam, you are “Easthope Sunbrother.” You are quite the hero with my family!

I think I like that name too and Sam's is just beautiful. It's good he's included even though they've never met him. But our Iorhael's wife is right too about the great effect her/our beloved has on people. His joy at waking and thinking of his beloved was cute too. Glad he has joy.

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author Reply: Maybe that should be "SquiggleFEET"? lol I thought Sam should be a hero with Frodo's family just as Frodo is with Sam's, and should have the most beautiful name they could think of. And yes, our Iorhael should have all the joy he can hold and then some...so I just gotta keep piling it on! What else is a fairy godmother for?

Thanks bunches for commenting!

hugs
