Okay, yeah, you're right, that made me laugh. That kid's something else. She's going to be a handful and a half when she's a little more self-propelled, and Merlin help us all once she starts showing her magic!
As for the rest of it, yeah, that's the sort of thing I'm thinking about. And the way that -- well, look at so many of the kids at Hogwarts. There's a lot of them who're probably perfectly pleasant people, except they've been taught that this all is right. And you know how hard it is to change someone's mind rather than teach them in the first place. I mean --
I don't know what I mean, really. Do you really think it'll be possible to put things back the way they were once upon a time? Because I don't think I do. We're never going to be able to go back into hiding once this is all over. And I'm pretty sure they're going to hold one hell of a grudge against us, and I can't say I blame them, really.
Gah. Cheerful. Cheerful. I think a greenhouse is a grand idea. I'll write Mum later and see if she wants some help.
