Dear Harry, My son.
I STOLE YOUR MOTHERS PAPER! DON'T TELL HER FOR GOD SAKE! Oh my god...I bet she's reading this and plotting about killing me in my sleep...SON HELP YOUR LOVELY DADDY! Okay...Help...Me...And Don't tell her if she's not reading this because she will then have no reason to kill me!
Right, Back to the letter stuff...
Harry, I've asked Dumbledore to give you this letter when your older enough to understand...I'm hoping I'm the one giving this to you, And you're asking me why am I giving you a letter? Well, If It is Dumbledore that gave this letter to you, That means the worst case senarios happened, that means I'm no longer here, As much as it pains me to think of leaving you...That might be the case.
Anyway, Harry. I just wanted you to know how proud myself and your mother are of you, Even if we aren't there right now, Doesn't mean were not their full stop, it means were in your heart.
How we wish we could be there for you, To wave you off on your first trip to Hogwarts, To wave you back home and cuddle you as you stumble off the train, To show you how to ride a broomstick to show off when you're on one in flying lessons, To be waiting at the other end of the quill to be told you're in Gryffindor, There is no doubt in my mind though, You'd never be in any other house, You're a POTTER! Potter means Gryffindor.
Stay strong, Kiddo. I'm sure that it's been tough without us around,but I know you will manage, Sirius has promised to keep an eye on you for me, and I trust Sirius with my life. You'll do great Harry. Don't ever forget that we are always here if you need us.
Dad.
