Early Morning
Dear Mum and Dad,
I've gotten into the swing of things at Hogwarts. I'm at the top of the class in Transfiguration. Albus and that Mitzy Smythe girl are jealous of how well I'm doing. I'm so far ahead of everyone else that I'm doing some 2nd year Transfiguring! I'm able to change Stu into a water goblet while everyone else is still trying to change their wooden mice into real mice. My flying lessons have been getting better, but I don't think I'll be trying out for the Gryffindor Quidditch team anytime soon. Write to you and Grandma Andi both soon.
Love,
Teddy

Evening
Dear Mum and Dad,
I hope you won't be mad at me, but I got detention. Remember my plan to trick James into eating a Puking Pastille over the summer? Well, it was working but blew up in my face. The Pastille was meant for James, but someone let it slip to James that I was going to trick him into eating it. So James told Filch, who told Professor McGonagall, who took 15 points away from Gryffindor and gave me a detention on Halloween. I can't imagine what I'll have to do as my punishment. Someday, I will get James (and whoever told James of my plan, my guess is Scorpius).
Hoping you aren't too mad,
Teddy

Late Evening
Dear Mum and Dad,
It's quarter to eleven, just getting back from my detention. I had to muck out the slime pits in the snufflapod plants for Professor Longbottom. It was pretty disgusting, but better off than copying lines or something worse. I received a rather nasty letter from Grandma Andi at breakfast. It wasn't a Howler, but it still wasn't enjoyable to read. She basically said that she was very disappointed for me having acted so foolishly. Professor McGonagall told me she was going to be writing to Grandma Andi. Still thankful it wasn't a Howler. Time for some much needed sleep, my Charms practical is tomorrow, wish me luck.
Love,
Teddy
