Pride Goes Before a Fall...Or a Farmer's Dogs  by Elanor Silmariën 24 Review(s)
AntaneReviewed Chapter: 7 on 6/4/2006
"I want you both to know that living here has made me happier than I've been since my parents died," he began, then paused. "With the exception of Merry being born, of course. After talking with you, Uncle, I've realized that coming here isn't just a move across the Shire, but it should also be a move towards regaining the life I had before the accident. I've neer had better friends than you, Sam, and you Uncle Bilbo."

I must have missed this chapter somehow because I wasn't aware until now it had ended. Love the above, esp. the move towards regaining the life I had before the accident. He's learning joy again, the light we shall see later and I know those two, Sam and Bilbo, and Merry and soon Pippin, are the reasons for that. Best friends, forever, indeed!

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Oh Ellie! I almost had to go for the tissue box on that one...and not for my allergies, either. That was beautiful. It is so hard to move, but it's a wonderful thing when the move means new oppurtunities. Glad you loved teenpact! The classe over here is in May, so no, I haven't gone yet. I'll turn sixteen while at Teenpact. That will be a cool birthday! :) ANyway, thanks for the warm wishes on the term paper! Namarie, mellon nin!
God Bless,
Frodo Baggins

Namarie, young Master Baggins and Sam, may your friendship keep growing, (you will need it.) Ohhh I saw another story of yours abouve this one.I must go read it now.... ~Arwen


Author Reply: Happy, of course, mellin nin! It ain't over yet! I've got at least one more sequal running around in my brain (Frodo needs to conquer his fear of water if he's to become the strong hobbit we know he is) See you later!
God bless,
Ellie

A restitution of sorts, and an indication Frodo is beyond such childish things now. Lovely.

This was great, Ellie. Poor Frodo...it is so easy to get into trouble when you're out of sorts. And the Bible does say bad company corrupts good character. It's happened to me a few times. I love your characters, and your writing style. Speaking of, I should go and write that term paper...*blusing*
Namarie, mell min!
God Bless,
Frodo Baggins

Author Reply: Hello!!! Yes, I've had the same problem as well, but now I'm glad to say, I've got really good friends like Sam to hang out with, thanks to God. Good luck with the term paper! BtW- I LOVE TEEN PACT!!!!!! Yeah, It was kind of cool. JK. It was the best! Have you gone yet this year? Anyways, thank you so much for reviewing, mellon nin!
God bless,
Ellie

Oh yes, pins and needles indeed! How did you know? I came on yesterday but forgot to connect, so I saw your story near top but I did not get to read the next chapter cause it wasnt there! (Elves are easily confused with theses new age internet things. *Heh*) And this chapter! Fro! You little!..you little.. Lets just say I never thought 'little fro' would learn all this stuff and be SUCH a tweenager. Sam is such a cute lil hobbit. ;) Alright! so when does our dear self-sacrificing hobbit grow up? Keep that keyboard going and going and...
God bless & namarie mellon-nin! -Arwen @ Lorien

Author Reply: I just guessed, mellon nin. Well, us hobbits aren't so far ahead, there's a button that says publish and a button that says preview, and I clicked the wrong one before I had the chapter typed. *Heh* Well, I always thought from certain stories in FOTR that Frodo was *quite* a trouble maker as a youngster. But he does have quite alot of growing up to do, and I have quite a few ideas left, we'll just see where this takes him.....
Namarie,

Oh my goodness, yes! Tweens and trouble seem to imply one another. Setting a whole bunch of frogs loose in the hall...LOL! LOL! Oh my goodness gracious, that's hilarious! I like the realistic way you portray Frodo, and I love Bilbo's fatherly love. Keep it up, keep it up! You know we love it!
God bless,
Galadriel

Author Reply: Glad you liked it! I'll write more as soon as I can, and hopefully more consistantly than I have been lately!
God bless, mellon nin!

Glad you got the publish button pushed at last.

So, Frodo deserves the title of rascal of Brandy Hall, does he? And setting the frogs loose at a large party was wonderful. Little Bro once caught a number he put in a gallon mayonnaise bottle, setting the lid loosely on it so they could breathe. He wasn't to bring them in the house but did, and set the jar on the shelves between the chimney and the wall.

Mom had a number of ladies from the church coming in, and one of the cats became interested in that jar. Not long after the last of the visitors came in, the cat knocked over the jar, and we outside heard screams as ladies came spilling out of the house and down the hill. It was quite a wonderful show, you see.

Glad Bilbo is finding Frodo amenable to correction. He's a nice lad, he is.

Author Reply: yes, well, i wasn't done typing it yet and accidentaly clicked the wrong button, so I had to go back and finish my typing *hehe* Your story is hilarious!!! Little boys get in so much trouble, don't they? Thanks for reviewing!
God bless,
Ellie

Queen GaladrielReviewed Chapter: 5 on 3/28/2006
Awww! What a sweet chapter! I love young Sam, already so protective of his Mr. Frodo, and I love the way you write Bell. Keep it up!
God bless,
Galadriel

Author Reply: I'm glad you liked it. Sam was sooooo much fun to write in this story, and I'm happy to say there will be alot more of him coming up! Thank you very much!
God bless,
Ellie
