Don't feel badly for me. I don't know what I'd do if I had time enough to be bored. I've always been the fidgety sort.
Which may explain a lot of things about Bea, as well. I think you're right about her being frustrated that she can't say all she wants to and even when she can say it, that doesn't mean we'll agree. It makes her very cross when we don't see things her way. Generally that's because she wants something or wants to do something that we won't allow. Or won't allow endless repetitions of. I've heard toddlers learn by repeating (and repeating and repeating) things--like banging rhythms or making odd, loud sounds or poking the doggie. And sometimes what they learn is that grownups don't like those things very much! And nor do doggies.
By the way, it would be lovely if you'd come for a visit--we've all sorts of work here, including baby minding. And we've also been known to welcome friends just to come enjoy an evening at the garden as guests. No work required! By which I mean, we'd love to see you whenever you could get away.
And Opaleye jewellery is lovely, isn't it? I expect your mum will be over the moon about it. But I expect she's the sort, too, who's really genuinely happy with gifts whatever they are, just because they come from family.
What do you Weasleys do at Christmas? Special things that you do every year?
