NOTE: there is really no point in Hermione's Diary, it's just about
Hermione and her every-day-life. But I have fun writing it, so..

Dear Diary,
So yesterday we sent Julia of to Hogwarts. I admit that I cried. I had promised myself that I would stay calm, but I just couldn't. Seeing my baby go away. It was so heartbreaking. And I won't see her until Christmas. Well, I can always look forward to her owls.
The good thing is that now there are 'only' 5 kids here. Much easier to handle. Well, not that Julia was ever trouble. She could take care of herself most of the time. Enough about Julia, I'm just gonna start crying again.
Saturday Harry and his family will come over.
I saw Harry's wife Carol at the train station. She was there to say goodbye to her niece. So we talked about them coming over Saturday. They have two children, the twins Jamie and Lily, who are 6 years old now. Like Laura.
I look forward to seeing them again. We don't see each other that often, actually it's been 4 months since the last visit. Ron works a lot, and Harry is always around the world with the Quidditch team. Oh I should tell, I work at home. I am a writer. I have 10 published novels, and working on the 11th "Next Summer" I really enjoy my work.
"Mum, there is a owl from Julia"
"Okay Brady, let me read it"
Oh thank God. That means she made it to Hogwarts.
What does it say?
She doing fine, that's good. Sharing dorm with.. The teachers are.. She thinks.
It looks like everything is like my days there. I'm a little worried that she hasn't seen the library yet. She will be spending a lot of time there. I hope.
Ron is home now. He's going to be so happy when I tell him, that Harry and Carol will come over Saturday.
Ron, no. don't do that, the kids are right next door. Ron..!
"Ron! Didn't I tell you, to not do that when the kids are around?"
"Oh come on. They are busy with their games. So, how was your day?"
"Very good. Yours?"
"Good too" "I have good news. Harry and Carol will come over Saturday"
"Really? That's brilliant. I really want to know about that new Quidditch broom, that he..."
Typical.
I tell you. If he and Harry are going to sit around all day, talking about Quidditch, I will take Carol and the kids shopping. Power shopping. Spend all our money on new robes, that we can't afford.
I still don't understand the thrill of Quidditch everybody is talking about. It's so violent, and dangerous.
"Hey, Hermione, erase that last line"
"Ron, don't look over my shoulder, when I'm writing in my diary"
"Okay, I will. But now more negative stuff about Quidditch"
"Okay"
Oh, I also have to plan my birthday party. I have invited everybody over. My family, Ron's family, our friends, the neighbours. I should really start planning. I can't believe that Molly talked my into this big birthday party thing. She said that since I didn't throw a huge party, when I turned 30, I have to do it this year. I don't see the point. 34 aren't something special.
Maybe I should wait till 40?
"Hermione, a birthday party is a really good.."
"Ron, honestly. Don't look over my shoulder!"
I have to start cooking dinner now, the kids are starting to get noisy. Meaning that they are hungry.
Merlin, I really love my family.
With love, Hermione.
