Each cloak was fastened about the neck with a brooch like a green leaf veined with silver.
`Are these magic cloaks?' asked Pippin, looking at them with wonder.

Congratulations! [In reply to] Can't Post

Thank you for the choco ciggie! And glad to see you're not too bleary-eyed from the midnight rousings - even though your wife is being the brave one to handle the night-time duties, still, little ones do have good lungs!

My older two are 4 1/2 years apart, and my eldest loved to dote on her little brother; there must be something about that age difference, that makes the older ones see themselves as protector and teacher, as well as playbuddy. Watch out, when the little sister gets old enough to conspire with big sister! Angelic

What a wonderful Christmas present - all happiness to you & your family!

What a landscape! [In reply to] Can't Post

But it must feel strange, selecting a Christmas tree with no snow on the ground...

I'd say Eldarion is doing well, with his new-found "freedom"! He knows to be quiet, and do restful activities - as much as we'd like them to fall asleep, it is good to know they've developed that most healthy habit of reading in (or near) bed! Boy, does he have a big smile!

And I like gramma's "Elfstone" monniker for little brother Smile!

I'm finally a lot better, but now Mr. P has come down with it... [In reply to] Can't Post

the cough is a definite trademark.

As it brings asthma to me, I was using a steroid inhaler, + flonase to help control the enormous um, drainage that goes with it, making it tricky to use the cpap. I'm glad it hasn't made you short of breath--that's nasty.

But it doesn't last, so feel better soon!

"Of all faces those of our familiares are the ones both most difficult to play fantastic tricks with, and most difficult really to see with fresh attention. They have become like the things which once attracted us by their glitter, or their colour, or their shape, and we laid hands on them, and then locked them in our hoard, acquired them, and acquiring ceased to look at them.
Creative fantasy, because it is mainly trying to do something else [make something new], may open your hoard and let all the locked things fly away like cage-birds. The gems all turn into flowers or flames, and you will be warned that all you had (or knew) was dangerous and potent, not really effectively chained, free and wild; no more yours than they were you."

"Tolkien, like Lewis, believed that, through story, the real world would become a more magical place, full of meaning. We see its patterns and colors in a fresh way. The recovery of a true view of the world applies both to individual things, like hills and stones, and to the cosmic - the depths of space and time itself. For in sub-creation, in Tolkien's view, there is a "survey" of space and time. Reality is captured on a miniature scale. Through stories like The Lord of the Rings, a renewed view of things is given, illuminating the homely, the spiritial, the physical, and the moral dimensions of the world."

what you are going through *cough, cough*. Talking also is difficult if not impossible without coughing. There is a gum that i really like and that is Arctic Chill Dentyne ice. It soothes, it (WOW) helps open things up and generally just makes me feel better.
