Chapter 3
Harry smiled and put his hand on Lizzy's, "Yes, After you told me about what happened to you, about being the only one in the orphanage for more than a year, I talked to Professor McGonagall and asked her to get me a list of kids that had lost their families during the second war. Ron, Hermione, and I helped to place all of the kids either with family members or into a new family. Baby Becca was the only one that we could not place, that is until I talked to Mrs. Weasley." Lizzy looked from her dad to her nana, "Nana you are going to take care of a baby?"
Mrs. Weasley laughed, "I am not that old. I believe I am still very capable of caring for an infant. Especially if I have your help this summer." Lizzy was smiling, she looked at her dad and Ginny, "Can I help nana this summer?" Harry laughed and ruffled Lizzy's hair, "We'll see." The three had finished their breakfast and Lizzy asked, "Can I open the rest of my presents now? I have never had so many."
Harry was about to say 'yes', then Ginny cut him off, "Lizzy, I think it would be best if we waited for the rest of the family to get here, before we open the presents from them. How about if you help nana clean up a little in here. Then come in the sitting room and you can open the present that your dad and I got you." Lizzy lost some of her excitement at first, then got most of it back at the part her present. "Okay" she said. Harry and Ginny got up and walked into the sitting room.
When Harry and Ginny got to the sitting room, they embraced each other. Harry looked down into Ginny's eyes, "I love you," he said. Ginny smiled and said, "Yeah I know. I love you too." They gave each other a passionate kiss. When they broke the kiss, Harry said, "I am sorry, I feel I have been neglecting you." Ginny smiled, gave him a kiss and said, "No, you haven't. You have been getting ready for our future together. There is no reason for you to be sorry Harry. I love Lizzy just as much as you do. I am glad that you have made her your daughter, and I will be glad when I can make her mine as well." They kissed again and sat down.
While Lizzy was helping her nana she asked, "Nana?" Molly smiled and said, "Yes, dear?" "Well, Nana, are you happy that Harry adopted me? I mean he is only what like seven years older than me. And he and Ginny are going to be married someday. You probably wanted them to wait to have kids and stuff huh." Molly turned around and looked at Lizzy. She walked over to her and pulled her into a great big hug and when she released her she said, "Sit down Lizzy." Lizzy obeyed and sat.
"Lizzy, when Harry told me he was going to adopt you, I will admit, I wasn't to keen on the idea. I have always thought of him as a son, and he is so young. He wanted to take on the responsibility of being a father to an eleven year old. But, he told me more about you, and how it made him feel. He told me that even tho he had only known you for a short time that he loved you in a way he never knew before. He talked to Ginny about it. They had decided together that they wanted you. Harry told us this. When he finished telling us everything, I knew that he would make you a good father. I also knew that if I tried to stop him from doing it, well it would have only made him want it more. I know that he and Ginny are strong and if they felt that they were doing the right thing, well I would always support them. Now that I have had more time to talk to him and Ginny about this, I am positive they did the right thing. And I am very happy that Harry adopted you." Molly smiled and gave Lizzy another hug and then said, "Now why don't you go and see what your new dad and Ginny have gotten you." Lizzy smiled and walked into the sitting room.
