A little girl with bushy brown hair- Hermione Granger's pre-Hogwarts experiences

For a boy or girl to be accepted to Hogwarts, they need to show that they have magic in them, right? For wizard parents, that is perfectly normal, but what about the muggle parents? What is a little toddler to do? In this fic, we'll follow Hermione from her birth, to the time she was sorted into Gryffindor at Hogwarts. I'm aiming for the maximum of 10 chapters or so, and I hope you like the story. Any ideas and comments will be appreciated, so please R&R.

Enjoy!

"Just one more push madam! There we go! Congratulations, it's a girl!"

The doctor cut the umbilical cord and carefully passed the crying baby to a nurse, who washed it, measured it, checked it up and wrapped it in a pink blanked, then handed it to her parents.

Mr. Granger was overwhelmed.

"Well done honey. She is gorgeous!"

"She is, isn't she? What should we name her?"

"Well, I've always liked the name Hermione."

"That's a nice name. She'll need a middle name too."

"How about … um…"

"Jean?"

"Perfect! Hermione Jean Granger is officially born and ready to experience the fullness of life!"

Mrs. Granger rolled her eyes over her husband's short speech, then looked at the baby in her arms and fed her. When she was full, she opened her eyes and looked at her mother.

The mother saw that they were the exact same shade as her own. Her hair was quite long for a newborn baby, and it was a dark brown color that matched her eyes nicely.

"My, my. You really are a beauty. Welcome to the world, Hermione," cooed Mrs. Granger into her daughter's tiny ear.
