I'm James Sirius Potter, prankster, troublemaker and incredibly attractive if I do say so myself. But what everyone can see is that one of the most important things to me is my family. Yup, my family. There are some interesting people in it. Why? Well we're the Weasleys, there are other families which we consider part of our own, the Longbottoms, Scamanders, Lupins and to a certain extent the Malfoys. All war heroes, so that explains a lot no?
I would say it does. If you don't believe me here's a list of the people for you.

There's Grandad and Gran Weasley. Granda is obsessed with muggle stuff, kind of weird, anyway, he's awesome, he gives us stuff and let's us do almost whatever we want, let's not forget he is one of the nicest people anyone will ever meet. Gran is also really cool. She cooks incredibly! Always good to have someone who can cook in your family. Gran is extremely protective of all of us and always takes care of us, she accepts whoever we bring to the family without question and treats them equal to everyone. They're amazing people to have as grandparents.

Anyway after that is Uncle Bill, he works at Gringotts, yeah amazing, he lived in Egypt for some time, and is totally laid back. He now lives at Shell Cottage with his family. His wife, Aunt Fleur, is part Veela, she's nice and always invites us over to their house to swim. Their kids are Vic, Dom and Louis. Vic is the oldest cousin. She's completely in love with Teddy Lupin (who I'll get to later), and is pretty scary when she gets mad, as of now she's training to be a healer. Dominique is a prankster like me, she loves bmxing, she's not girly like Vic or her mum, but more like her dad. Louis is kind of a player, he's nice and a gentleman but has a different girlfriend almost every week. So that's Uncle Bills family.

After Uncle Bill in the family tree is Uncle Charlie. There is one thing I can say about him that will sum it all up. Dragons. Yeah, he works with them. He is completely awesome, he's chill and daring and acts as if he's our age. Gran is always fussing over him getting a wife and settling down but he refuses which makes him really cool.

Then it's Uncle Percy. Everyone knows that Uncle Percy left the family during the war, but he's changed. He's still really smart and into his work but he's super protective and gives great advice. Aunt Audry, his wife, is really nice and I have never seen her loose her temper or be anything but cheerful. They balance eachother out. Their oldest daughter is Molly. She is really studious and smart, probably the most responsible of all of us. When you get to know her she surprises you because she can be just as mischievous as the rest of us. Her sister Lucy is like her mum. She is really cheerful and nice. She gives great advice and loves little kids. Always the best person to go to with a problem.

Then come two of the best pranksters I have ever known, or heard of. Fred and George Weasley, my uncles. Uncle Fred is a hero, he died during the battle in which my parents were in. Everyone misses him, especially Uncle George, but his legend lives on. Uncle George has one ear, yes only one, his other one got cut off in the war. He's still a prankster and provides me and Freddie, his son, with products from his joke shop, he never gets mad when Fred gets in trouble for a prank and is usually proud of him. Aunt Angelina on the other hand disapproves of the pranks although they amuse her. She's amazing at quidditch and good to have on your team when we play in the Burrow's yard. Freddie as I said is a prankster and my best friend. He plays the drums and dances. He is like my own twin, since we are always together. His older sister Roxanne is also a prankster and one of the best I know. She never gets caught but only pulls pranks once in a while, only when she finds it necessary. When she does though it is better that any other prank I have seen. She's really cool and Louis best friend.

My Godparents come next, Uncle Ron and Aunt Hermione . They are my dad's best mates an legends. They helped my dad in his quest to defeat Voldemort. My Uncle Ron is amazing at Wizards Chess and really cool about everything. My Aunt Hermione is really smart. She's incredibly nice and protective and my favorite grown up. Weird considering she's not a prankster or anything, but more like her daughter or my brother. Rose is their daughter, she's like my little sister and really smart like her mum. She loves to read and play quidditch. She's probably the one I'm closest to. Hugo is her brother, he plays the guitar and is really good at quidditch. He's a keeper (haha pun). He's one of the nicest people ever and kind of clumsy, but never fails to bring a smile to someone's face with his loyalty.

My mum comes next but I'll tell you about us Potters at the end.

So then it's Uncle Neville. He's not really my Uncle but he's close to the family, and like an adopted Weasley. After the war he became really close to all of us. He's Herbology Proffesor at Hogwarts and incredibly nice to everyone. He's also a war hero but acts like he didn't do anything special. He's married to Aunt Hannah, she's the Landlady of the Leakey Cauldron. She's really nice and a true Hufflepuff. We share a hobby for collecting chocolate frogs. Their daughter Alice is also my best friend. She's really pretty and incredibly talented at playing instruments. I've had a crush on her since we started school but before that I just saw her as a friend. Frankie is her brother. He is the best quidditch player of all of us, and that's what we have in common. He is really laid back and funny and clumsy like his dad. Nick is the youngest of the three, he loves to skateboard and likes to prank people, he usually helps me and Fred.

Then it's Aunt Luna, she's really nice but a bit… different. She believes in weird creatures but is really fun. She gets us cool stuff when she goes to South Africa and those places. Her husband is Uncle Rolf, he is the grandson of Newt Scamander, famous author or something. They have twin sons, Lorcan and Lysander. They're both really calm and kind with everyone. Lorcan is more into reading and that sort of stuff and Ly is more into muggle stuff and games.

Last is the Malfoys, Mr. Malfoy was my dad's school rival or something, they didn't get along. But after the war when Rose and Al became friends with his son they met again and talked. When Mr. Malfoy's father died Gran kind of took their family in. Mr. Malfoy is not that mean but he's not all that comfortable around us yet although everyone has forgiven him. Mrs. Malfoy is actually very nice and pleasant. She has amazing jokes and gets along great with everyone. Scorpius is their son. He's a Gryffindor unlike his family. He's sarcastic and a nice guy overall, and he obviously had a thing for my dear cousin Rosie. He has an adoptive sister. Her name's Kira. She's a great person and is treated exactly the same as Scorpius. She's the nicest Slytherin at Hogwarts.

And last but not least are the Potters and Lupin. My dad is 'the chosen one', and all but he never lets the fame get to him. He's really noble and a great dad, he doesn't get mad a lot and when he does it's because we've done something horribly wrong. My mum on the other hand has a fierce temper. She's really kind to everyone but scary when she gets mad. She was star quidditch player for the Holyhead Harpies and now works for the Daily Prophet is the sports section. I'm the oldest and I love quidditch and pranks. My brother Al, is a true gentleman and usually very calm, but has the same temper as my mum and sister. Lily is my sister. She loves dancing and is also very scary when mad. She has dad wrapped around her finger and is a good student but better at pranking. Finally it's my godbrother Teddy. He's the oldest of us and has the kindest heart ever, he gets cranky at full moons and is protective of all of us. He plays quidditch and people say it's better to have him on a broom than on his own two feet. He is a Metamorphagus and will do anything for our family, considering his parents are not here anymore (because of the war) and he mostly lives with us or with his grandmother.

So that's my family. But this is not about the grown ups, this is about us kids. Because really of all the challenges in the world, in my opinion, growing up would be the hardest, especially with famous parents. We are not the chosen ones, snake slayers, THE Weasley twins or the brightest of our age. We are a new generation…and this is our story.
