Epilogue

Ginny Potter cried as she stood in front of the officiating wizard in her parents' backyard. She and Harry were renewing their vows in a formal ceremony, attended by all of the Weasleys and people from Harry's office. Ron and Hermione's little one was crying piteously, and JJ, Wren and Sy were toddling around their parents' feet. Small Weasleys everywhere were creating pure bedlam, but they wouldn't have changed a single moment of the day.

"Do you, Ginny, promise to uphold your vows to love, honor, and cherish your husband; forsaking all others, submitting dutifully to him in all things for the rest of your life?"

"I do."

"Do you, Harry, promise to uphold your vows to love, honor, and cherish your wife; forsaking all others, putting her needs above your own in all things for the rest of your life?"

"I do."

"From this moment on, you are bound. Heart, soul, life. You may kiss your wife."

Just as their lips met, Ginny's water broke. Potter children four and five were trying to make it in time for the reception. Ginny swore colorfully and frowned up at Harry, who laughed and hugged her.

Security was once again called into St. Mungo's waiting room as they nurse announced the births of Cedric Arthur and Remus Rubeus Potter. Ginny lay smiling at her five young children as Harry counted fingers and toes.

"Well, you're certainly helping me win, love," he commented.

"Shut it, Harry. Our children are not a contest. And I believe I'd like to wait awhile before having any more."

Harry glanced amusedly at her. "More? We've barely got enough bedrooms as is."

Ginny nodded sedately. "I know. Ced and Remi will probably have to share a room. Unless we build on another."

Harry wagged his finger at her. "You just gave birth. You aren't even allowed to think about more for at least a year."

His wife merely smiled. He pressed his lips to her forehead and ran his fingers idly through her hair.

"I am so blessed," he said quietly. "I have three fifteen month old children and two newborn children and a beautiful wife who makes me so happy I can't believe I'm awake most of the time."

"Harry," Ginny chided. "That was positively sappy."

Harry chuckled. "I've had a rough day."

Ginny hit him with the pillow.

"If you think this was rough, wait till they start attending Hogwarts."
