Dear Diary,
There was a landmark within the Weasleys today: Ronald made his first steps. Mom cried and Dad took out the old camera to add that to the album.
Everything was quiet at the Burrow, especially Ron who held my old Teddy in his small plump arms. He seemed peaceful and I admit you that we take advantage of these moments because they are rather rare. Mom was cooking and Dad asked me for help in the garage to arrange a muggle "telemission" – a sort of box where are locked very small Muggles, I spend you the details.
Percy told us that Fred and George took advantage of it to go to the lounge. Fred wanted Teddy but Ron squeezed it against him. Believe it or not, this kid has quite a lot of force and when he has an idea in mind it is difficult to remove it to him. Shortened, Fred got angry and because of that my good old Teddy changed into a spider. But a big spider. It was at least as big as Ronald. Percy ran to the kitchen to warn Mom while we heard the small crying. Everybody rushed in the lounge and when we arrived, Ronald trotted around the dining table by crying, followed by Teddy the spider, under the laughter of Fred and George. Mom hurled herself on Ron by saying something who looked like „My little Rony is a big boy" but I'm not sure because of the sobs.
Fred and George were punished (more to have laughed that for the transformation, they are just kids and they do not control their powers), we also loosened Teddy. And we let Ron yomp while the dinner. The youngest walks. Dad and Mom are very proud. And they also announced us that no, Ron is not really the last one of the Weasley children. Let us hope that is finally a girl.
I hope that one day Ron will know that it is thanks to Fred if he began walking. And this day, I would like to be there to see his face!
Charly.
