I do have hobbits on my brain...

[dreamflower]

Today a woman came in to the store with her four children. All of them were adorable, with big blue eyes--but one of them also had dark curly hair and a pale complexion! As soon as I laid eyes on him, I instantly thought of little Frodo! Fortunately, I bit my tongue and didn't shout it out! I probably would have scared the poor kid to death!

He really did look like a little hobbit--except he was wearing shoes. I don't know about pointed ears, because his curls covered their tips...

nawwww...too cute! :D

He really was! It was so hard to keep from asking his mom if she thought he looked like Frodo! But I've discovered a lot of people in OK have never even *SEEN* the movies, much less read the books! Imagine that!

Fro-fanaticism is sadly limited, I agree, lol! :)

LOL! Well, it's a good thing to have your mind on. I've had several occasions where I've almost blurted out something fandom related to a complete stranger as well.

Well, I didn't want to scare the kid or to offend his mom, but it was hard to bite my tongue!

Awww... I love it when I meet young Frodo's in the streets.

A long long time ago (back when I still was in school) mum brought me to school and on the way there we drove past a young boy about 6... big blue eyes, curly hair under his hood... I almost jumped out of the driving car, when I banged my head on the window. Mum agreed that we should kidnap and keep him :P

He was just so adorable! I would have kept him if I could have!

He sounds adorable. Too bad you couldn't get a peek at those ears!

[dreamflower]

I know! But it just added to the illusion, since I couldn't! *grin*

I'm so glad there are hobbits in Oklahoma. So that's where they settled in the Fifth Age!

Maybe. I dreamed last night that the DH and I went for a ride, and we found ourselves passing by this hill, where there was a house that looked just like a hobbit village.

Oh, my, wish I could've seen him.

How adorable! It's difficult to restrain yourself in those situations... I have a little boy at preschool who is the spitting image of Ron Weasley, and I learned his name REALLY quickly because I knew I couldn't call him Ron.

How cute!

I'm sure his ears were pointy, but just slightly. ;)

He's sounds adorable.

You know, I just sat here and thought... why can't faunts wear glasses? Especially with the connections Bilbo has, I can see him arranging something like that for a child to you know read books. :)

Sounds like an adorable child.

Totally off topic. I friended you over on insane journal but my name over there is currently re_gretta so when you see that name on your friend's list, it's me. I may change to grey_wonderer over there too but for now I'm re_gretta!
