Seventeen years later.
"You got all the stuff?" Fred asked the pair of identical girls in front of him
"Course we do da." they laughed. The pair of them, our oldest, had a large supply of wheezes stashed in their luggage...as always.
"Just don't get caught." I sighed. "I'd hate to have the first students I expel be my own daughters. They rolled their eyes. This was now the sixth year in a row I had said this to them. Fred laughed and kissed my cheek.
"Eeww." our two youngest, a pair of dark haired boys, said in unison.
Fred winked at me and turned to them. "You'd better go, or you'll miss your train." the boys eyes widened as they noticed their four older siblings had disappeared already. They darted off.
"Now." Fred turned and slid his arms around my waist. "To hogsmeade?"
"To Hogsmeade." I agreed.
I looked down at the students from my spot at the teachers table. My oldest girls, Carmen and Camren, were sitting in between Leth Longbottom and Lea Jordan at the Gryffindor table. They had their father's bright red hair...although I guess I had red hair too...and hazel eyes. They were 6th years now...it was hard to believe. My next oldest were third years and separated. Selena sat at the Ravenclaw table while her brother, Spencer, sat at Slyetherin. The two of them had blonde hair(Fred loved to make jokes that I must have cheated on him with Malfoy to get that to happen) and green eyes. I smiled at the whole lot spying Harry and Ginny's kids around the room as well. I stood and held up my hands for silence which the students immediately answered.
"Welcome back." I called, my voice echoed back to me, amplified by the room "As you all know, its time to welcome all the new students and sort them." I flicked my hand at the door and it swung open. I sat back down to watch the ceremony. Neville stepped forward with the worn looking hat. He was no the head of Gryffindor house. One by one he called the students forward and sorted them. I almost burst out laughing when my pair of boys were sorted into Hufflepuff. I now had atleast one kid in every house...that must be a world record.
I beamed out at all the now sorted students...my students...my family...my school...
