ORDER ONLY
I am so very pleased to announce that we have decided to adopt Terry into the Longbottom family.
Terry, love, when I first became engaged to Frank, Augusta took me aside and told me to be prepared, as Longbottoms are 'stout hearted, stubbornly principled, and generous to a fault.' Wise words indeed! I'm incredibly proud and pleased to welcome you into our family. You've held a special place in my heart from the moment I first saw you write in these journals, and although it's been a difficult and winding road for you, I am so glad that road led you home to us.
We'll be having a celebration of sorts and the formal proceedings on Sunday afternoon, and anyone who wants to is more than welcome to come for cake and to stand as witnesses.
