My birthday is in SIXTEEN days! I hope something special happens because I've never been away from home for my birthday before. I even kind of miss Hugo because he'd always wear costumes with me and this year I am all by myself. Well, not all by myself, I have some others to play with like Scorpie and Paige.

Mummy, Daddy, are you still going to get me presents even though I won't be home? Will Hugo get to eat all my cake? What about Uncle Harry and Aunt Ginny? And Uncle George and Aunt Angie? And and and everybody! I miss everyone. We can't even go to Hogsmeade yet cause we're too little.

I'm not sure I like being here after all. I miss Easton. But the new kitten is cute and Huck likes him. Scorpius, you hafta give him a name soon.

Hi Mum! Hi Dad! Hi Uncle Harry! Hi Aunt Ginny! Hi Hugo! Hi Lily! Hi Uncle George! Hi Aunt Angie! Hi Uncle Charlie! Hi Uncle Bill! Hi Aunt Fleur! Hi Grandmum! Hi -----

ALBUS POTTER YOU'RE IN SO MUCH TROUBLE NOW!

Hi everybody at home, I miss you lots and lots and I can't wait to see you over Christmas holidays but I'm having a brill time EXCEPT STUPID STUPID ALBUS STEALING MY QUILL! Said I was talking too much but I think he just likes my quill. I told him not to get the brown one, the blue one is SO much nicer, but nooo. I'll show him, he's not to touch my books all week. Scorpius, you can, though, and PAIGE! I have a princess book, do you want to read it? I'd have offered it to you, Scorpius, but you are a boy and boys don't usually like princess books.

Oh, right, anyway, I like Charms best I think and Transfiguration is just brilliant and Nevil Professor Longbottom's class is nice, too, but I don't like it as much as Scorpius does, sorry Unc Professor. OH that reminds me, Hi Auntie Hann ---

Mum? What do I do if I've made Alby's nose grow too big?
