Order Only: Private Message to Remus and Sirius

[alt_nymphadora]

Thank you both for making this such a nice, relaxing Mother's day. Sirius, they told me it was you remembered how much I liked the sweet buns from Lomax's. They're still the best!

And, Remus, you were so good with Bea, helping her make my brekkie. And bring it up! How did you get Kreacher to allow that? Sirius, was it you that got her the ruffled pinny? She was so pleased with it.

We could get her a little domestic's cap and teach her to help Ellie at the shop. She'd love it. Shame we can't trust her over there.

Oh, and which of you helped her with the card? I didn't dare ask if that was meant to be me in the picture. Or a pony. Or something altogether else!


Are we going to see you back here tonight, Sirius? All well up there?

And surely he'll be back tonight; he was just taking baby items up to Bedford for some of the rescued babies, even if they all want to say thank you I can't imagine he'll be there all night. I mean, there's Terrie, but

Hello, yes, I'm all right.

Two of the girls have had their new babies and a third had just gone into labour when I arrived. Terrie explained that they had a whole Mothering Day celebration planned and felt it would be wrong to start it, er, prematurely, as it were. She convinced me to stay a few hours - and then a few more, as the young woman continued. Bedford's newest resident was born a little after six and then the party got underway.

I was waiting for the, er, celebration to wear off a bit, so that I don't embarrass myself all over the Floo grate. But someone just came and told Terrie they've spotted a lone rider on a broom uncomfortably close to the southern perimeter, so we're off to check on that.

I expect it's just someone else who was visiting his or her mother until far too late. Don't wait up; if necessary I'll kip on Terrie's sofa. She won't mind.

Sounds a bit wild for a Mothering Sunday party with a bunch of new- and nearly-mums, but I'm not one to judge.

Watch yourself if you're getting on a broom there, sailor!

Right. Congratulations to the new mothers, then. I won't wait up.
