| Soooo cute. Pippin is probably feeling sorry for eight, because it's going to be left behind. Actually ten is one that often causes a bit of distress - people say things like 'you'll never be in single figures again!' and kids really feel that they're going to lose something. (I suppose you could say the same to 99 year olds. But I don't think they'd care!) Merry is a great cousin - and I think we can rest assured that he and Pippin will find plenty to do that will liven up being nine. Author Reply: I think you've hit the nail on the head, Bodkin! :) Oh, I remember the whole "double digit" thing surrounding age 10, but I remember being so excited about that! I was actually more distressed when I was younger - for a few years I really did cry the night before my birthday. It used to really unnerve my parents! Yes, Pippin really should know better than to think that Merry would allow him to have a boring and adventure-free year! ;) I'm glad you enjoyed this. Thank you! | |

| Ah, how typical of children everywhere, any time! Hating to think the good times will end. Author Reply: Pippin should know that Merry will keep him well-supplied in fun! :) Thanks, Larner! | |

| Oh, I sooo needed to read this fic; thank you so much for writing it! I know just how poor Pippin feels--my birthday is this coming Friday & I find myself lamenting. Last year was the best year I've had in a very long time & I just wonder what this new year of my life will bring; if it will be just as good. Thank you for the hobbity reminder that "it won't be so bad turning ... after all." Author Reply: Thank you so much! I used to go through the same thing as Pippin when I was little, and I was actually a bit afraid of posting this because I thought everyone would think I was incredibly weird! So I'm very glad you can appreciate it! Happy Birthday, by the way :) | |
