Morgan,
The ink is a really pretty color, much better than the black. I bet your new quill is really pretty too! They are really sweet to have gotten you gifts like that. I wish I had been there to sing with them and also to see how embarrassed you got! I bet you loved it even if you were so embarrassed. You can't lie to me, I know you love being the center of attention.
Holy crap all of the pictures! Yes, that definitely deserved a swear. Also, you're the best! There are so many. I think I'll make a scrap book, because it'd be really cool. Who doesn't want to have a book based on a real magical castle? I'll save all the pictures and send you back the card and some fresh batteries, that way you can take some pictures for yourself. I suggest embarrassing pictures of two certain boys? Hmm, embarrassing/ cute nicknames for Scorpius… That's tough since I don't know him too well, but I'll try….. Hmm…. Sunshine? Sunny? Rainbow Brite? Sorry, I really have no idea, you could try to come up with something that mock/ teases his stubborn and stuck-up personality.
Ha! I'll be sure to get as much of those sweets as I can. Hershey's should be easy to get, while Baby Ruth's are a bit trickier, but doable. I can always convince my mom to buy the good stuff that way I can send you the leftovers. Introduce Scorpius and Albus to some decent candy that you don't have to catch to eat! Making me work for food, not worth it if you ask me!
I don't have an aversion to cleaning myself, just to baths! I shower when I have to… Thanks, the harvest shall be plentiful for sure! We're so close to Halloween! I'm so excited I can't wait! AHHHHHHHHHH! Ok, I'm done… Maybe…
It's great that you guys can dress up and everything! Maybe you'll end up starting a tradition and more kids will dress up each year! Wouldn't that be awesome? Then, instead of a feast the teachers could have a Halloween party instead. I think it'd be more fun than just sitting at a table and eating. Plus there would be the added bonus of the houses getting to mingle more! Ok, I've used way too many exclamation points, but I can't help it. I love Halloween so much.
Potions sounds a bit like cooking. It doesn't surprise me that you're good in it. You could end up becoming a master of something. I don't know what wizards and witches do after school, I'm just spouting nonsense. Ignore the clueless muggle!
Yay! You're coming for Christmas! That makes me even more excited. My cousins from Canada are supposed to be coming for the holidays… Boooooo… They're both boys, Colin and Filip, so they always play with Eryk while I get left out. I'll just sneak off to your house when I can so we can play! With your permission of course, since I'm sure you want to spend time with your own family.
Ugh, don't even mention math! Hissssssssss…..
I mentioned martial arts to my mom and she immediately panicked. Boo. I'l have to convince her when I'm a bit older. Next year maybe? For now I'm doing swimming we'll see how that goes. Wish me luck! I start this Sunday, so if you don't hear from me in over a month, that means I drowned.
