Dear Draco,

Your mother and I feel that, as today is your twenty-first birthday, we should ignore our disagreements for the present and wish you well. (Let it stand that we still do not approve of the choice you have made in regards to your wife, though we assure you that, should you separate yourself from her at any time, you will be welcomed back into Malfoy Manor.)

Best wishes,
Father

"Perhaps next year," she sighed.
