Very cute. You certainly set the story well from the narrator's perspective - the beauty of the day, everyone feeling joyful and alive ... but I missed the characters a bit here - How was Elrond feeling? Was it usually his job to watch Estel? kids are so mercurial - what else might have been going on with Estel beyond just loving the day? And I think his reaction to getting stung (Inside the cheek!!) was awfully contained. My neighbor's five-year-old was stung last summer and still often asks before going outside (in winter) if there will be bees around. The swelling alone would be horrible.
