What a wonderful party! I love seeing Sam open up like this, and seeing them honoring Frodo and Bilbo still!

The children are all just adorable! *sigh* It's no wonder Pervinca has a gleam in her eye watching them.

Speaking of Pervinca and Everard...*hint*hint*

Sam's still all about proper, and always will be, but he's learned to expand on what's proper for him and what isn't. After all, to be a *proper* Master of Bag End, he's going to have to be a little eccentric. :P And I foresee that Merry and Pippin will be getting their way on the 'Mr.' issue - Sam really can't argue about it anymore.

The kids are such show offs. Because of them, I had to split this fic in two and give Aragorn his own story! lol They just wouldn't give up center stage. :D

Pervinca and Everard - I know, I know. Trust me, I have been trying, but other stories keep getting in the way. I think the only way I'm going to be able to get anywhere with that story is if I concentrate on it and nothing else. Which will mean no new stories for a very long time.

What a lovely party, and a perfect ending. And how delightful to see your 'Rules' woven into this tale! :D

I learned those Rules just in time it seems! Which is unfortunate for Sam because he really can't argue with them. He'll have to start learning to leave the 'Mr.' off of his friends' names. ;D

The party was a lot of fun to write, especially all the kids. They're just too adorable. Too bad Goldie couldn't have had her baby on the Day though. ;)

This is simply fantastic, GamgeeFest, and such a delight to read! I liked how you portrayed each of the first three birthdays of Frodo's since he left as very different from one another.

“I hope Peri’s been burped,” Merry said as his father bounced the bairn again. Peri’s peals of laughter filled the air with merriment.

“We may be old, dear, but we remember the basics,” Esme assured him.

ROTFL!!

“Don’t you listen to him son,” Sara said to Pippin. “We have to take care of our namesakes.”

Wow, that line just hit me--Frodo will never be able to care for his namesake and that makes me sad.

“When do I get a brother, Daddy?” Freddy asked.

“When your mother makes one,” Folco answered.LOL! Hey, it's an honest answer to a certain extent ( ... )
