A/N: Here is a little background on the twins. As you can see I also offered the meaning behind their names!
Chapter 1: Light and Dark
On January 28, 2000 at exactly 7:30 a.m. Olina Potter was born, twelve hours later her twin sister, Demelza Lilian Potter entered the world. As was tradition, St. Mungo's pediatric ward presented the proud parents with a "Newborn" basket filled with diapers, bottles, and other baby necessities.
The card attached to the basket read:
To Mrs. and Mr. Harry J. Potter,
Congratulations on the arrival of your twins!
St. Mungo's would like to present you with this starter kit. The care of children is something that is not easily learned but is valued above all else.
For all your services in the wizarding community we are proud to be a part of your continuing life cycles.
Congratulations once again.
"Born exactly twelve hours apart were they?" Molly Weasley asked her youngest daughter. The short plump woman was cradling the newborn baby in her arms, her face filled with excitement.
"Yes mum," Ginny answered. She was still in her nightgown. She was laying in the hospital bed resting after almost a full day in labor.
"Bless their little hearts" Mrs. Weasley added. "One chose the day and the other the night."
Harry looked down at his wife and the oldest of his daughters. The happiness he felt in his heart overshadowed the events of the past years. As victorious as the good side had been, they had lost a good amount of people in the process but he still had his family and that was all that mattered.
"I know," Ginny continued. "That's how we came up with their names. "Olina" means the light of the sun and "Demelza" means dark maiden. And I believe Demy has got to be changed."
The cries of a baby could be heard around the room as Ginny picked up her youngest daughter to change her.
"This one," she said to Harry, "Is going to be a handful."
