I love this as much on the third read as I did the first two! I know I've told you , but am enjoying telling you again, Pearl. The comparisons between Pip and Faramir's Yule gifts was wonderful, and as always, I adore Pip's enthusiasm.
Just an all around super Yule Tale - thank you!!

Thank you :-)

Wow!! Awesome, Pearl! I absolutely enjoyed EVERY word. You have your Faramir and Boromir nailed down to a T! Loved the interaction between family members, no matter what Race, lol. Your knowledge of horses/ponies obviuosly came into play in this wonderful tale(s). Excellent and very well done!

Author Reply: Thank you so very much, Pippinfan! Holly liked it and my usual readers have liked it.
*sigh*
All is well :-)

Hugs to m'dear Pippinfan!

Oh, I so love the parallels between Pippin and Faramir's first ponies--fron the giant rocking pony to the later ones and at similar ages. And that their stories are shared as Shadowfax listens is just perfect!

Wonderful!

Author Reply: Thank you so much Larner :-) My muse was generous as I had really wondered how I was going to work with the request. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

A wonderfully lustrous pearl, my dear Pearl. I enjoyed this tale thoroughly. Pip's rocking horse is a delight! I am a child again every Yule season! You gave me a story to brighten my holiday. Thank you.

Author Reply: Oh Neilia, I'm so glad I helped brighten your holiday :-) I'm glad you liked the rocking horse!

Loved Faramir and Pippin together in this. This was lovely. I like stories that show Pippin and Faramir as close friends. Well done and a happy holiday to you! I will look forward to more of your wonderful stories in the new year!

Author Reply: Aw, thank you GW :-) I always did feel they would be close.

Happy Holidays to you as well, and I'm looking forward to more of your terrific stories :-) Guess we better both keep writing ;-)

“It seems, my friend, that we had similar Yule gifts in the same years,” Pippin bubbled with enthusiasm. “Do you remember . . .”

What a delightful ending. I love it when we find new links and bonds between our beloved characters.

Author Reply: Thank you m'dear mentor :-) I was so pleased to find Faramir and Pippin were only 6 years apart in age as I felt it could serve to make them even closer.

Glad you enjoyed it :-)

Loved it the second time as much as the first! What a wonderfully creative mind you have, Pearl!

Author Reply: Thank you so much Cathleen :-) especially for reading it twice and liking it both times ;-)

Ah, sometimes we can only write from expirence right? that's how I wrote for a while (three years exactaly) before I let my imigination eleminite my character and therefore only leaving Merry and Pippin. I don't think I've ever shared any of my PRE Merry and Pippin only storys to anyone

I didn't mean to say "doing anything to make it true" Pippin wouldn't do that. he is trying everything to make it UNtrue. I don't think I'd ever write a story having Pippin kill Merry on purpose... that would be freaky
