Thank you for these absolutely wonderful pieces

You know, I miss you! And it's been a joy rereading this one after so long.

A wonderful, gentle collection. Thanks.

Yay! More scribblings! I'm sure that all the praises that could be given have already been said, so I'll just say I agree with them all.

These scribblings just keep getting better and better, Baylor! Whenever I'm sad, I can just come and read them, and I feel better immediately. Thanks for brightening my world!

Each of these little stories delights and breaks my heart. You are a brilliant writer- and you have a good sense of humour too.
"“I’m giving you the future,

You write the absolute sweetest hobbit fics *ever.* You can have no idea how much I adore them! I just love the simple, elegant way that you write, and how you portray every character so magnificently. They all have real depth to them, when you write them, and I love it.
Please keep writing! You're wonderful.

Aww Those were all to cute! I think I am going to start the habit of giving out mathoms... I loved all the hobbits mathoms! I want them-even if they are just pinecones or marbles...They are given with such love! Thanks for the wonderful chapters!!

To Pippin’s bittersweet delight, one year he discovered in Bag End a box containing all his childhood mathoms to Frodo, and he sat on the floor and cried over it, and the cousin he had loved.

Not gonna cry, not gonna cry, not gonna cry...

Ohh, bother. *cries*

Oh, my goodness, this was exellent. I love the ending. I understand Frodo keeping those things. My son, now 31, is always amazed that each year I place on my Christmas tree an ornament he made at age 5 from on old baby food jar lid. It's my favorite ornament.

Your stories are always so good because they are always so very human in nature. Once again, hats off!

ps...thought I'd give you a heads up, you have "teen" instead of "tween" and I don't know whether or not you meant it to be that way.

Cake is cake, and good is good...this was good! You never disappoint, dear Baylor. Hats off!

My goodness, but you hook me every time I read your work! I'm already in love with this story!

Giving presents to people is a pain in the backside at times, and it seems the hobbits have the same problem. But presents are always nice to recieve.

I agree with Sam and Pippin, cake is always good. But it helps if it looks nice as well.

Merry and Pippin look so happy as fathers, I am certain that each of them regards his children as the most beutiful Hobbitlads and lasses in the whole Shire.
