| This was wonderful!!! I loved how you captured that let down feeling we get as we get older and lose some of the magic of the holidays. It always wonderful to see "Yule" through the eyes of lil ones. Must thank Auntiemeesh for inspriring another great yule tale! Great Job, and Happy Holidays! mc Author Reply: Hullo, hobbit_lass!

| I found this story extremely poignient, as I went through the same thing as Merry a few years back. I remember well what its like to suddenly find holidays don't mean the same thing to you as they did when you were a child. Thank you for this story and Happy Holidays. Merimas Author Reply: I remember that feeling also. It takes a while to figure out how to go about enjoying your holiday after that, but if you're lucky, you come up with something. There is nothing like the magic of Christmas when you are a child. Thanks for the review and Happy Holidays to you also! | |

| I have been lurking at SoA for almost a year now without ever leaving a review. This story however, finally broke my lurker status. This was one of the sweetest Hobbit stories I've EVER read. Holiday disenchantment is one of the most painful realizations about growing up. You've captured it perfectly with this bittersweet story. You are one of my favorite Hobbity writers! Author Reply: Why thank you so much! I am honored to be your first review and so glad that you enjoy my version of the hobbits. A friend posted something on her LJ that gave me this idea. I appreciate this lovely review very much. It's like an early Christmas present. Have a Happy Holiday and feel free to lurk about any of my stories that strike your fancy! | |

| I loved this! It`s good to see Pippin looking after Merry for once, and to see Merry share his thoughts with Frodo. He is growing up and wants to share Pippin`s joy in things, but hasn`t yet learned to share it through him properly. Author Reply: Lots of folks get depressed for one reason or another during the holidays, but that point at which you become one of the older folks and a little bit of the magic slips away for you is very difficult. I thought that Merry might be somewhere between Frodo's grown-up Yule season and Pippin's young child Yule. I am so glad that you liked it. It gave Frodo a chance to play the older cousin while letting Merry be the one in need of help. Happy Holidays! | |
