^&*Recap*&^

"Please God, Keep my new family safe, and say hello to Mama, Papa, Grandma and Grandpa for me." Sarah whispered, before falling  asleep with a small smile on her face.

"Mornin' Rah" Harry greeted as Sarah seated herself at the kitchen table.

"Mornin' Ree" Sarah replied through a yawn. She was the first one up, besides Harry.

"Cereal?" Harry asked, pushing the boxes towards her.

"Yes please and thank you." She replied, smiling at Harry as she looked at which cereals they had.

"Mownin' Daddy! Mownin' Sawah." Lily greeted as she came down the stairs.

"Morning" Harry and Sarah replied, eating the cereal.

"Cereal or toast Lily-Flower?" Harry asked, when his daughter sat down beside Sarah and across from him.

"Quaffle Quirks" She exclaimed, pointing to the Quaffle Quirks.

"OK. Here you go." Sarah said, pouring her cereal and milk for her.

"Tank you Sawah!" Lily said, beaming her 6 year old smile up at Sarah.

"your welcome Lily." Sarah replied smiling back at her.

After that, everyone else came down, and there were about 5 different topics of discussion going on.   

"Kids? KIDS!" Ginny yelled, catching the kids attention.

"Yes Mom?" They all(but Sarah) replied in unison.

"Your father has something to say!" She replied, making everyone turn to Harry with questioning faces.

"Well…I've gotten a few different job offers, and I can't decide which job to take. So, your mom and I decided to see what you kids would like." Harry started, looking nervous. "I've gotten asked to play professional Quidditch, offered a job as an Auror, and…" Here Harry paused a moment before continuing "I've been asked to teach DADA at Hogwarts." Harry said.

After a moment of silence, Elizabeth spoke up.

"Well…Quidditch is dangerous, and it keeps you away from home a lot. But flying is also one of your passions." She started, stopping to catch her breath.

"Being an Auror is also dangerous, and can sometime take you away from home, but you like to fight for your people." Continued Scott, cutting of his sister.

"Being a teacher would be kind of dangerous, especially if you teach the way Uncle Remus does, but you like little kids, so really, we think you should just follow your heart." Katy finished.

The other kids nodded or voiced their consent.

"You kids didn't help a lot!" Harry joked. "But thanks anyway!" He said, giving them each a kiss on the forehead.

~!^&~!^&Later that day&^!~*&!~

            "Hey Sirius!" Harry said when he met up with him at the grocery store.

"Hey shorty!" Sirius joked, even though Harry was taller than him by a good 5 or 6 inches.

"I need your help on something." Harry said, after they'd joked around for 10 minutes.

"Shoot" Sirius replied, looking over at Harry.

"Well, I've been offered 3 different jobs, but I can't decide which one to pick." Harry said, looking absolutely frustrated with it all.

"Well what are they?" Sirius asked, unfazed by Harry's attitude.

"Quidditch player, Auror or DADA teacher." Harry replied.

"Well……what do you want to do? Don't say you can't choose, because I know you want one of them. There's just something holding you back." Sirius said, looking Harry straight in the eye.

"Well…I do sort of want to teach DADA most, but I don't want to leave Gin to take care of the kids for most of the year while I have fun and teach." Harry said, looking upset.

"Well…You could just apparate or Floo home every night, or you could see if Dumbledore will let the kids stay with you at Hogwarts." Sirius suggested, knowing Harry hadn't thought about either ideas.

"Wow! I never thought of those ideas." Harry said, looking thoughtful.

"Oops! I got to go Sirius. I'll see yah later!" Harry said, turning to pay for his stuff and leave as his watch beeped.

That is one weird  child Sirius thought, as he too paid for his stuff and left.

            A/N Hey people. Sorry that chapter was shorter than usual! It's just that I have 2 MAJOR English projects due, 1 MAJOR geography project due, I'm planning a surprise party for my mom's birthday, and I'm helping my mom plan my little brother's party! Oh, and my relationship with my bf is messed up, and I'm trying to fix that while comfort my friend who got dumped by this jerk she really, really, really, really LOVED! So, in conclusion with that, I'm VERY unhappy to say that this story will be going on a break, for at least a week. I'll try and work on it whenever I have the time, but I can't promise you anything! But remember, the more reviews I get, the more motivated I get! Oh, and to the person who flamed me: Use your sign in name next time, and let me see you do better!

Lots 'o' Luv
