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.

Oh, Alice, what a wonderful idea.

I'll certainly be there. I'll bring a celebration pudding of some kind.

I still feel dreadful that the Ministry wouldn't allow us to foster Luna. Instead, she went to that dreadful Brown family, and I know they don't understand her at all.

I consider myself her honourary mother, anyway but it'd be lovely to have it officialised.
