Dear Moony,
I assumed that our charming owl, Venus, would reach you before we got the chance to meet again. As you no doubt know, I have given birth to our beautiful son, Harry, just two days ago. Its so nice to be home, out of St. Mungo's. Little Harry smiled up at me as I was singing to him earlier. He so resembles James; I can't wait for you to get the chance to come over (once the moon wanes, of course).
I suppose that James has told you that we were looking at a home in Godric's Hollow. We put the offer in yesterday, and they've accepted! We would love to show you the place, but even with magic, its a tad bit insane over here, what with all the unpacking, and the baby, and everything else... How about coming 'round for tea on the first of September. I hate to wait so long, but Wormy and Padfoot will be there as well. Hopefully, by then, our lives will have settled down (or as much as they possibly can).
Do, please send a return owl, I so wish to hear from you! James and I can't thank you enough for everything you've done for us, especially during these past nine months. I would thank you from the bottom of my heart, but for you, my heart has no bottom.
With love,
Lily
Lily read through the letter once more, before carefully folding it up and attaching it to the leg of her saw-whet owl, Venus. She stood by the window, watching the majestic bird disappear.
