Private Message to Sally-Anne

Hi.

I just wanted to say Happy Christmas. Well, almost Christmas.

How's Ron? I mean, with his dad and all. Because I know you were spending time there. Which is okay. I mean, of course you'd want to go and be there and support him.

Do you think he's still going to have that Quidditch thing at his place?

I, uh, sent you a present. A small one. I had to wait until today to get it because it wasn't something I could get in Hogsmeade. So I hope you like it.

Well.

I should go to bed. Bitsy's probably going to wake us all up at dawn like she did when she was six or something.

But, you know, just wanted to say. Happy Christmas.

Okay.

Happy Christmas to you, too.

Ron is ... well, about like you'd expect. Really sad. Every now and then something will distract him for a few minutes and he'll get a little more cheerful and then it's like he remembers and it all comes crashing back down on him.

I don't know if they're going to feel up to hosting quidditch.

Between Gemma, Mars and Val, we're lucky if we get to sleep all the way until sunrise. I can't get to sleep this early though so not much point in going to bed!

Thanks for my presents!

I'm glad you included the note because I barely remembered ever writing about wanting to see unusual animals.

I still do want to see them, especially the ones that we aren't covering in Creatures. Not in origami, though. But they're quite clever! How did you get the third eye on the newt?

Fair warning, I think Bitsy's going to claim the unicorn and the singing fish.

I quite like the gloves, too. Brown and blue look well together.

I charmed it there, that wasn't paper folding. And I'm glad Bitsy thought they were nift.

Thank you for the necklace. Is that one of those talismans, that your mother makes? It's really lovely.
