I do have hobbits on my brain...

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...
