Owls

[alt_hydra]

Aunt Narcissa, your owl came at breakfast. I didn't even finish my toast, I just went straight back to the dormitory to look and thank you... they - it's just so perfect. Thank you so much!


Well, guess what I walked in on in the common room, on my way back out? It was Gregory Goyle and he was asking Millie to go to the ball with him. I think that's what he was asking, at least. His mouth was full of bacon so it was hard to tell. But Millie was smiling, so there must have been something big going on.

What an exciting start to the day. And it's a day that's in the middle of the week, so the rest of the week is sure to just fly by now, and soon we'll all get to go to Hogsmeade.

If we have a party, we'll wait it for you. It's not as if Bea will know one way or the other, and it might mean she'd have two parties instead of one, mightn't it? One with just her parents and another with the rest of you. What little girl wouldn't like two parties?!

She does change her hair some already and her nose, though it's more that it changes when she wants to scrunch it and it just sticks like that. She mostly imitates us, but I expect that soon she'll be imitating the animals in her picture books. My mum an always told stories about how I learned to make my nose look like a pig's and a bunny's before I started talking!

I think most little girls would very much like two parties. Especially at that age, where they love to smash their face into the cake or toss handfuls of it around the drawing room.

You can make your nose look like a rabbits? Really?

True, that!

Yes, and I'm in better form now than I have been in ages. When Bea fusses, I try the most outrageous faces you can think of. I think she's cutting another tooth just now, so it's a proper circus around here some nights!
