HAPPY BIRHTDAY QUEEN GALADRIEL!!! :) That was a wonderful story, Antane. I feel so so so so so guilty about not posting the QUeen's present yet. It's not even finished!! How could I be such a horrid friend? Back to your story, This was a wonderful idea! And who was that fair Lady who looked at Frodo? I'm dying to know. Hannon le for this gift that we could all share in!

How cute! Frodo wanted to take Sam to see the Elves! What a perfect birthday gift, for Sam and the queen! *says happy birthday to her*
God bless,
Ellie

Author Reply: Glad you enjoyed, my dear! I had to do some fluff for the birthday. Angst just didn't seem right.

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Well at least Bilbo knew exactly what they had gone for. A lovley bit of fluff Antane. *wanders off to look for the fluff-buster to dust the keyboard before reading next story!*

Author Reply: Glad you had some use for the fluff-buster at last! :) I know there hasn't been much opportunity lately, but it's nice to see them happy, isn't it?

Oh, this had me laughing for the sheer joy, innocence, sweetness of it, Antane! Thank you so very, very much! *hugs* It's just perfect! Really. At first I wondered what the significance of the year was and then...

"It’s not every day you turn 16 and I wanted to do something
special for you."

Oh! :)

And what fun they had! Walking and camping, just being young, and they saw the Elves! Yea! I didn't know it was possible to have such a wonderful birthday as I've had, but I think Sam did, too. :)

They washed in a nearby stream. Frodo deliberately
splashed Sam who looked rather surprised and even more so, when he was splashed again. "Come on, Sam, let’s have a contest. We can see who can splash who
the most!"

The lad looked uncomfortably at his future master. "I can’t do that, Mr. Frodo! My Gaffer would have my hide if he knew I mistreated you."

"You won’t hurt me, Sam. I promise."

The tween splashed his friend several more times in quick succession which left Sam spluttering. "Come on, Sam, fight back!"

Once the younger lad got over his fear of bad manners, he splashed back vigorously and the contest began in earnest. If anyone had seen them, they would
have wondered about all the giggling and happy shouts and gouts of water that sprayed so high it was hard to see who was causing them. Finally Frodo called
out for mercy. "I...I concede the...contest...to you, Sam," he said, nearly out of breath, the water streaming off his hair and nose. He half-waded, half-crawled
to the riverbank, wiped his face, blew his nose into his spare handkerchief and dried himself off before dressing again.

"Well, I know now not to tempt you into another contest," he said as his friend dried and dressed.

"I’m sorry, Mr. Frodo."

The tween laughed. "Oh, Sam, don’t apologize. I know when I’ve been bettered. Fair is fair. But I suppose there shall have to be another contest at some
point. I have to regain my honor, you know, or try to at least."


LOL! Oh my, this is hysterical! LOL! Very reminiscent of last night. I'll have to tell you about that-it was *soooooo* *awesome*!!! :) Thank you so much for making my sweet sixteen sweeter still!
God bless,
Galadriel

P.S. Sorry if this is incoherent or whatever, I guess I'm still kinda hyper from all the goings on yesterday and today! LOL!

Author Reply: My pleasure, ammelda! So glad you enjoyed! For the preservation of such innocent times did Frodo take up his cross.

Namarie, God bless, Melinyel, Antane :)

The tween looked over at his friend’s earnest, loving face and smiled. "Dear Sam, you could make me happy even on a cold, rainy day. I wonder whether it was you giving me the gift instead."

What a lovely story! A wonderful birthday present. :D

Author Reply: Thank you so much for your review, shirebound! Especially as it was cold and rainy today...and you do make me happy. :)

Namarie, God bless, Antane

Oh, what a lovely gift for the two of them! Wonderful imagery.

Author Reply: So glad you enjoyed, Larner! I'll have to read your gift to the queen. Right now I've just had time to just glance at it, but I love the idea of other people being able to see Frodo's 'secret candle' as I believe it was put. Very cute. He had such an impact on people that he probably never even knew about until he reached heaven.

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)
