Preface

Robert looked down with pride at his sleeping wife Ellen. They were finally expecting their first child and he felt sure he or she would make an excellent addition to the little village of Toad on the Mold. He knew that soon the little nursery with the yellow ducky boarder that Ellen had so lovingly tacked to the wall would be holding a most remarkable child even if she was a squib as well.

Ellen let out a suddenly gasp and sat up in bed when a sharp pain tore through her back.

"Ellen my dear what is wrong? Was it a bad dream? Do you need a glass of water?"

"No dear heart I think it is time for the child to be born quick grab my bags we need to get to the hospital."

Robert ran to the closet grabbing the soft leather case, and then helped his wife to her feet. He led her to their car and soon they were on there was to St. Muthilda's hospital for squibs where every child in his family had ever been born. He knew it wasn't going to make the prophet like other magical births did but he felt secure that it would make the Toad Times tonight.

Soon they were pulling up to the harmless looking building and rushing through the parking lot. Robert wrapped his arm around his wife waist supporting her as she had another contraction as they were mere steps from the door. As she was coming up from the crouch she had went down in from the pain a Healer rushed out with a wheelchair to bring her in.

"How long has she been in pain?"

"My wife has been having contractions off and on since 1 am and it is now 3 am. Can you help her please she is having a baby."

"How close are the contractions to each other?"

"I have one every 5 minutes" panted Ellen as she clutched her stomach to try and tide the pain until they could get her to a bed. As soon as they passed the doors the Healer motioned to another robe clad figure.

She is having contractions every 5 minutes set up for labor and deliver and floo Healer Mary that Ellen is here."

After a labor that lasted 8 hours and made Ellen think that she was never going to see the end of her pain she had given birth to a 6 lb. 5 oz. baby girl. Looking down at her Robert wiped a tear from one of his brown eyes and said "oh I hope she looks just like you Elle my dear but I hope she has her Grandma's brown hair and brown eyes."

"Yes our little one will be a pretty child I am sure" as the new parents looked over there precious bundle Healer Mary walked in.

"Mr. and Mrs. Granger have you picked a name for your little one yet? Or will you still need a minute or two to think about it?"

"Yes our little girls name is Hermione Jean.
