I love the little para near the end from the trees' POV. :-) So cute, I can just picture the three of them having a fantastic camping trip... Thanks for writing!

I love this! There is indeed magic all around us, everyday. And it is great to get to share it with people we love. Wonderful!

I like hobbit fluff a lot! Thanks for writing this.

A lovely, lovely Shirebound story! The magic of the trees - and magic can be found anywhere - and the fun these three have were so wonderful. I love Pip's nervousness over the 'hobbit-snacking goblins'! And Frodo's love for his cousins is perfect. Thanks for this - I meant to review earlier but dratted real life kept getting in the way.

Bilbo had opened his eyes to a larger world than he ever imagined. And now he could share it. So that was *your* story? I loved it from the first moment on. It's really beautiful! In particular I liked the bit about the trees. Magic everywhere, indeed :)

A Shirebound story, indeed. Full of Love and Light. People who grew to be strong, loving, confident adults who faced such challenges as they did had to have had strong foundations, nurtured through loving childhoods. thank you for sharing some of the moments that built them.

I simply love Frodo's imagination--he truly creates a magical world for his little cousins & he is just so good in entertaining & keeping watch over them (along with gently teasing them, as well). Pippin is so very cute! I just want to cuddle him right up (although I suspect I'd have to wait in a very long line to do so)! I also liked how you presented Frodo & Merry's relationship with each other & the importance of Frodo's happiness. It's a very mature realization for Merry to see & understand that his Frodo is much happier living with Bilbo at Bag End then he was in Brandy Hall ... & yet that Frodo still loves him & misses him just as much. 'Merry looked into Frodo’s sparkling, happy face. “You really do like living with Cousin Bilbo, don’t you?” “Very much,” Frodo said softly. “Good,” Merry said, smiling bravely. “I miss you awfully, though,” he whispered in Frodo’s ear. “I miss you awfully, too,” Frodo whispered back.' What I enjoyed the most was how you had Frodo himself realize just how much he enjoys learning all the things Bilbo shows him & that he wants to pass all of that along to Merry & Pippin. Also that through that realization, Frodo comes to understand the deep meaning it has for Bilbo, to be able to have someone to share his wisdom with, finally, who not only will listen, but _wants_ to. Well done!

The calmer kin to the Old Forest realizes that Hobbits are the right folk to have at hand, and may even do their best to protect them. And glad to see Frodo learning to be happy with Bilbo, and Bilbo finding happiness in teaching Frodo.

Would you like to know when I was certain this was a Shirebound story? It was just a few words, "his armful of cousins." I had suspected it from the first, because the visual image of little Pippin sitting on Merry was just so immediately heart-warming, and then Frodo scooping him up and growling in his ear. What confirmed this was a Shirebound story was the happy, wistful feeling I had at the end of it, wishing I could be part of their lives.

Tigger · 10 May 2006 · Chapter 1

Sigh...How I needed a sweet, lovely and fluffy story like that tonight. Magic really is all around us if we know where to look for it. Just a lovely, lovely story shirebound dear. Now...Do you know where I could find my own version of Snips? He sounds delightful!! :o)

Queen Galadriel · 10 May 2006 · Chapter 1

Aaawww! How sweet! I just adore little Pippin! :) And Frodo is such a wonderful big cousin! I've been saving this for the end of the day, because I knew I'd want a nice fluffy little fic then, and I wasn't disappointed! God bless, Galadriel

The magic of it all...and so true! The smoke from the camp fire...the fresh aroma of spring...and three wonderful lads to make it all complete. :-) I so enjoyed this little tale--I was sorry to see it end. I also loved the touch of awareness with the trees. Excellent. :-) Pippinfan

Awww, how cute! Love love love little hobbits! God bless, Ellie

Antane · 10 May 2006 · Chapter 1

Sweet! Anytime I can see Frodo happy is fine with me and Pippin is so cute! I love Merry not warning him that their beloved cousin is coming up behind him. What love between these three! Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Dreamflower · 10 May 2006 · Chapter 1

Just popped in to say: She made this for meeeee!! Wheee!

Auntiemeesh · 10 May 2006 · Chapter 1

What a sweet little adventure for Pippin! And for Merry, although he tries to be too grown up to really believe the magic, lol. I loved this; “Will we really have an adventure, Frodo?” Pippin asked hopefully. “Will there be scary things that don’t eat us, and lots of magic?” What a perfect wee Pippin moment. :D

Bilbo had opened his eyes to a larger world than he ever imagined. And now he could share it. And thank YOU for sharing your larger vision of Tolkien's world with all of us. This is so sweet.

lbilover · 10 May 2006 · Chapter 1

*squee* I adored this story- Frodo's care for Pippin, the way he is able to make the day magical for him; Paladin's perceptive comment about Frodo quoting Bilbo so often; Frodo speaking to the trees, and laying his hand on the bark, calling to mind the Quest and Lorien. Lovely and loving and gentle.

SlightlyTookish · 10 May 2006 · Chapter 1

Eeeee, this is absolutely charming! Pippin is the most adorable little lad ever! I love Frodo's story at the end, it's a wonderful thought, being able to find magic in anything. And oh! WHen you said it was a deserted Ranger camp I thought for sure we'd catch a glimpse of oen or two. You didn't write about the rest of their camping trip. Maybe a Ranger does appear, or is just hidden in the woods, watching and protecting...maybe it's even Estel! *bounces* :D
