What a nice start to my birthday

[alt_molly]

Arthur, my dear man, brought me breakfast in bed today. Toast and eggs and bacon, all cooked just the way I like them, and the Daily Prophet. I feel like a que entirely pampered. Bill popped by to share a cup of coffee before going to work. And Arthur and I will be dining out tonight at a restaurant, thanks to a gift certificate from from Percy and Penny.

I am quite looking forward to my day.

I hope it stays just as good, Mum.

Happy birthday, Mum! Your birthday present from us is a guaranteed no-explosions day! And a card, because an owl's on its way.

[alt_molly]

It came already! It made me laugh so hard! Thank you so much for remembering, my dears.

[alt_molly]

I'm sure it will.

[alt_percy]

Oh, good, I'm glad you'll be able to use the gift certificate tonight. I hoped you would. I hope you have a wonderful time.

Having someone else cook dinner is always a treat. I do appreciate it, so please pass along my thanks again to Penny.

Having someone else cook dinner is a treat for you? Mum...you can't fool us. You're never happier than when you're in your kitchen.

Still, it was a good idea of Percy's; good show Perce. I've heard good things about Celeste's.

Many happy returns, Molly love. I hope my book arrived, and that you have a good day today.

Happy birthday, Mrs Weasley.

Thank you, love. It didn't arrive today, but I'll look for it tomorrow.

Oh, thank you, Alice. It really was a very lovely day.

Arthur and I are thinking of you tonight, what with Frank gone. I hope the children have a splendid Halloween. (I hope the bushel of apples I sent arrived in time to make the caramel apples. We had a good group from our orchard this year.)

Thank you, Terry, dear.

Private Message to Mum

Hope you had a wizard day, Mum.

Do you remember the year I drew you a comic about the ghoul wanting to wish you happy returns? Or the year I drew you a comic about the gnomes all climbing up the trellis by the kitchen window to sing you their birthday song? Or the year I drew you the one about the chickens laying special birthday eggs for you?

Well, I didn't draw you a comic this year. Sorry.

Do you remember the year I made you a card and got the twins to charm it so it threw glitter and confetti all over you when you opened it? And the glitter got up your nose and into your mouth and a piece got in your eye even and you were laughing and crying and sneezing all at the same time?

I didn't do that this year, either. Even though I could do amazing charms now to make glittery confetti go all over and do nift stuff if I wanted to.

Oh. Do you remember the year I got really ill the morning of your birthday and vommed all day?

Even if that'd happened this year (which it didn't), you wouldn't have had to clean up after me or stay up all night with me. Since I'm at school. So I guess that makes this year better than that one, for sure.

Um. So, yeah. I'd just like you to remembered all those other years when you opened my card today. Cause I know that all it says is Many Happy Returns, but I really mean it. I hope this is the best year ever for you.

Yeah.

Love from your favourite son,
Ronald

The shawl arrived today. Oh, Ginny, it's lovely! And has a subtle charm on it, doesn't it? I noticed the sheen on it seemed to change colour, depending on what it's lying against. I'll be proud to wear it, dear. Thank you so much.
