Dear Harry,
I've been so busy today, I almost forgot about this! I don't know how. James reminded me though, so here we are.
It's been a little while since the first entry, hasn't it? I must say, I am a bit more comfortable with this Wizarding Book now that I have gotten used to the idea. And it really is ingenious. I wish I had one, but since I didn't grow up in a magical family, I'll just have to make do with baby pictures.
That isn't to say that I've replaced baby pictures. They are a great part of a time honored tradition, embarrassing-baby-pictures-before-a-date. And you certainly won't be spared. You are the most adorable baby ever, and I'm going to prove it to everybody. You'll thank me eventually, I'm sure.
So things have been pretty quiet as of late here. Dumbledore was hear last week, wasn't that nice of him? Oh silly me, you probably just read the entry that he was kind enough to write, just now, before this one!
I'm still getting used to the idea of this thing. I'm getting better though!
I've been talking to Molly Weasley and she told me to sing and talk to you all the time. And she must be a baby guru because you smiled at me the other day, a giant happy smile. You've such a wonderful baby. I love you so much, Harry.
It's been getting cooler, despite the fact that it's only the beginning of September. I know you probably don't want to hear about this, but it is truly hell to be pregnant in the summer. If you have children, remember that.
Note; you will have children. I demand grandchildren. (But I'm too young for it now).
I know that it'll be many year before you read this, but I still feel like I should be asking how you are. Are you eating enough?
See, now you know what goes on in your mother's crazy mind. I feel like I'm acting a bit scatterbrained at the moment, but I can't help it. I've been so busy lately.
But you don't want to hear about that, right? I'm being so boring. So apparently, according to your father, my last entry did not have to be the specific length that it was. Well fancy that! I do wish that he had informed me of such before I wrote it, though. Oh well.
I hope that soon I'll be able to bring you along with me when I visit other people. You art supposed to leave home when you're so young. I love this house, but I'm feeling a bit claustrophobic at the moment. I don't mean to complain, but I've always loved going places, and I'll be very glad when you can join me.
So I think I'll end this here, but I'll write to you more at some point.
Lots of love,
Lily
