What a darling story! I loved it! I would have liked to see more of the birthday girl, but I loved the story all the same. Good 'ole Pippin! :)

Perhaps we can see more of the birthday lass in another story, but her dear little brother stole the show, er.. story, this time!

So sweet! I love the way you always manage to capture the Hobbits and their ways so clearly, and the way children act. Gryff, you rock my world. Constantly. :D

Ah, lovely! I was on my way over to the Challenge to read a few stories, when I noticed some of them popping up here. And since I'm already signed in here... I like all the little details you put in to make the reader feel at home in the story. Bilbo is very good with children, isn't he? And I've noticed how children delight in hearing their birth stories, again and again. Nice meeting between Pearl and her little brother, and the conversation with Frodo afterwards.

Oh, yes! Bilbo is indeed wonderful with children. All of the little Tooks, Brandybucks, and Frodo enjoy hearing him tell spin a yarn or sing songs. I'm glad you liked the interaction between Pearl and Frodo as well as Pearl's meeting Pippin for the very first time. That entire part was so easy to write, it practically wrote itself! Thanks for the review!
