To my Dear Solange,
Your letter was the most pleasant surprise. Your writing is coming along wonderfully, especially for such a small child. Mother would be jealous, I was four when I began writing. But thats much sooner than many of my peers. Lily says witches and wizards learn faster than many muggle children, but i dont know where she gets her information or how to verify it. I love you too dear, very very much. I like it here at Hogwarts and Ive learned so very much already. I know one day youll be ready to come to Hogwarts with your trunk and perhaps an owl.
And I promise you little Cousin I shall be on platform 9 and three quaters waving you a bon voyage and sending you so very many letters. To think of you so grown up brings a tear to my eye!
But now I must be off. My next class is in 20 minutes and its a long way to Defense aginst the dark arts from the Owlery. I'll send Uncle Harry your love.
Mischief managed
Del
