Ahh! How sweet. "maybe you'll find it again!" I looove hobbit children!! They are so adorable! I like what you wrote about the scars healing! V. true Frodo! Though, *sigh* some didn't, and he had to leave after all...*stares across the silver sea*
God bless ~Arwen

Hope can some from the smallest as well as the greatest. 'Out of the mouths of babes....' after all.

Author Reply: Indeed! Children are just so... I don't know... hopeful and innocent! Thanks for reviewing!
God bless,

Lost his finger but not his soul. I have found the much-maligned animated version of the ROTK to be quite insightful on some things and this is one of them. I can't remember exactly what Frodo says, having only watched it twice so far, but while Sam mourns the loss of his finger, Frodo something like better that than the loss of himself entirely. I know he would regard the maiming to be a constant reminder of his failure and the questions of the innocent would bring new pain but it is also a victory and a mercy given him that only a finger was lost.

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author Reply: Wow, everyone is so eloquent on this topic! I have to watch that. I just placed a hold on it from the library because I've never seen it before. Thanks for reviewing!
God bless,

Our scars are in the end what we make of them; and those Frodo bears are in the end beautiful because of the one who bears them and what he made of his life and what he added to the lives of others.

Author Reply: Yes! That was beautiful! I couldn't have said it better! Thanks for reviewing!
God bless,

Awww! *hugs Amber* She is *sooooo* cute! :) And so innocent. Yes, Frodo needed her *and* Ellis then.

I love Frodo's blank "hmmm?" as he is brought out of "writer mode"! LOL! My family hates it when I do that. "Hey! I said do you want anything from Steak and Shake!" "Oh, yeah, sure. Why are you yelling?" "'Cause I already asked you like three times and you just kept writing!" :)

I love the hopeful note this ends on.
God bless,
Galadriel

Author Reply: Lol! I am so glad you like Amber! She's so not like me, though. I'd be too scared to ask questions like that. *blushes* My family does that too! I'm always saying that... you just sort of zone out and then... "You were supposed to be cleaning the kitchen half an hour ago!" "Woops!" I'm so glad you liked this! i was afraid it would sound a little lame. *grins*
God bless,
Ellie
