Dear Diary  by Lily Dragonquill 103 Review(s)
demeter dReviewed Chapter: 20 on 3/6/2006
Delightful, my deart! My oldest child-only son's little boy has just turned a year old, and your Frodo behaves just like little Ben does. Running about, babbling in his own little language. One minute playful and friendly, next minute tired and grumpy! So sweet to see the beginning of a deep life long friendship between the two. And as has been said before, I like they way you write Drogo and Primula as a couple. Lovers first, parent only then. I am enjoying this very much.

Author Reply: Thank you so much. I really enjoy writing Drogo and Primula. They must have been parents who left their mark on their child, even if they had one another only for a short while.

LOL! Oh, I can hardly type! To think of Bilbo engaging in "parent-baby conversation" with little Frodo is just too cute for words! LOL! So, the first word is "no," eh? Ah yes, all too familiar. I remember waking up one morning to find that my little brother had learned it, and for the next several days everything was "no no no!" :) Then came "sissy!" which to me grew more exasperating because he suddenly wanted to follow me everywhere and ask a million half-articulate questions. But that's why we adore little children, right? :) Can't wait for the next one!
God bless,
Galadriel

Author Reply: Bilbo and Frodo prattling away surely is not something one sees every day :)
Aww.. you're little brother must have been a little rascal :) But, you're right. That's why we love them.

The next one will be the last one, I'm afraid.

"I don't spoil him," I tell my husband impishly and lean back for a playful kiss.

"No!" Frodo exclaims demanding attention. He crawled up to his uncle, his little hand tapping Bilbo's knee.

"See," I tell them, as I look fondly at my son, a smug smile on my lips. "Frodo is of the same opinion."


LOL! The constant and only use of the word "no" certainly offers a wide range for interpretations ;-) And Primula's interpretation is definitely to her advantage, whereas I think little Frodo demands to hear the dragon story!

That was a very nice chapter!


Author Reply: Frodo definitely only wants to be occupied. How dare the adulds find anything more interesting then him :)

Toys had to be introduced to our guest and conversations needed to be held

"No!" Frodo exclaims demanding attention. He crawled up to his uncle, his little hand tapping Bilbo's knee.

Bilbo wraps his arms around my boy, and pulls him into a hug. Then he covers his face, hands and belly with kisses, earning delighted squeals and giggles. There's no doubt they have stolen each other's hearts. Bilbo might want to visit more often now.


Awwww! This is wonderful. I'm so happy these two share a birthday.



Author Reply: I'm glad you enjoy it.

Awwwwww! Baby hobbits are the cutest thing ever. I love Frodo's chattering :)

Author Reply: Oh, me too, my dear. Such a cute lad :)

*grin* Awww! Yes, I love imagining Frodo as being a mischievous child! I had to laugh at the firewood incident, reminds me of the things my own brothers used to do when they were babies. And yes, who can resist those eyes? I can't wait till this is finished and I get to read it all the way through without stopping!
God bless,
Galadriel

Author Reply: I never pictured him as anything else but a mischievious child :) He has the kind of character that implies some cheekiness in young years (and perhaps even later).

How can anyone ever resist him?

Well, I can't resist him, never ever :)
And I can't resist this diary, it's absolutely wonderful!
I'm looking forward to following our little rascal and his mother on many new "adventures"!

Author Reply: I'm afraid there are only two more chapters to come. But there are lots of adventures in other stories :) I promise to go right back to writing Schicksalsjahre eines Hobbits after the exams are over - next week! *wheee*

And in the end few could resist them, and faced the loss of their regard with such grief.

Yes, I can see these notes being written into the diary. I remember how it was with my little foster son--and the terrible grief when he was returned to his birth mother.

Author Reply: I remember how it was with my little foster son--and the terrible grief when he was returned to his birth mother.

That's very sad. I hope you still are in contact.

LarnerReviewed Chapter: 18 on 2/6/2006
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.
