Love is hope -- Fall 1998 (DONE)
My little tyke was growing up so fast. He had been at his first day of preschool. I was glad that I was able to find a little place for young witches and wizards Seth's age. He did not have any cousins to play with and I wanted him to be with other ids. They were going to drop Seth off and I was at Shell Cottage pacing in the front yard. I could not wait to see Seth. I had been at work all day, but I had missed Seth so much. I figured it was just because he had not been at home waitin gto greet me. Dora was still at work, so this was going to be guy time. I checked the time again. I thought that they might be running late when I heard a bunch of laughter and I turned. Is aw my son running towards me, dragging his backpack that had dragons on it. Charlie got it for him of course. I bent down and he jumped into my arms. I hugged him and lifted him up. "Boy, did I miss you!" I said, giving Seth a kiss. I set him down and held his hand. I grabbed his bag as we walked inside.

I laughed as I hugged my dad. "I didn't miss you," I told him, smiling as I looked up to Dad. We walked into the house and I was really hungry.

I raised my eyebrows as I gazed at Seth. I feigned being hurt. "You didn't miss me?! But Seth... I'm your dad," I said, starting to fake cry. I set the bag down on the chair and reached for a tissue that was on the end table by the chair in the living room.

I rolled my eyes. "Oh, Dad, stop faking," I said, smaking his arm. I really enjoyed joking around like this, though. I loved hanging with just Dad. "Do we have any food?" I asked, wanting to raid the kitchen.

My son with the one-track mind. Always on food. I laughed and ruffled his hair as I walked past him towards the kitchen. I knew we had some munchies. I would get Seth to help me make dinner, too, while I tried to find out what hapened at school today. I set some veggies and dip out. "Here we go," I said, dipping a celery stick into the ranch sauce. "How was your first day of school, bud?" I ased him, leaning on the counter looking at my son.

Ugh... veggies and ranch sauce? Okay, it was my favorite, but I was craving something sweet. Oh well... I guess I was just going to have to wait for my cookie. I shrugged as I ate a carrot. "It was fine," I said, my mind on stuffing my face.

"Fine? Just fine?" I questioned, eating a radish before getting out ingredients to start making dinner. It was early, but I wanted to marinate the salmon a little bit before grilling it up.

I giggled a little bit a the way Dad repeated what I said. "It was a lot of fun. Everyone is really nice. There's this one kid -- Adam -- he's hilarious. Then there's this girl -- Katie... she kept trying to touch me and stuff," I said talking quickly. I was really excited to tell Dad everything. I swiveled on the stool as Dad moved around the kitchen.

I could not help but chuckle once Seth started talking. "Sounds like you have a couple of friends already," I told my son. "Hand me te pepper, please," I added. I thanked him when he listened. Lemon pepper salmon was one of my favorites. And I made everything from scratch the best I could, even though I was not as good as my mum.

I cringed a little. "I don't think I want Katie to be my friend..." I asnwered, trailing off. I just did not think I wanted to be friends witha girl. They had cooties.

His face was priceless. "Don't count her out yet," I informed him. One never did know how that would end up. "You know Uncle Charlie and Tonks were friends when they were little," I added. I did not make Seth call Dora 'mum'... I wish he would, but I would let him make that choice on his own. I did not want to force the issue... Dora and I were not married yet anyways, just engaged.

I crinkled my nose. "Uncle Charlie was friends with Dora when they were little? Like... my age?" I asked. I could nto believe Uncle Charlie was friends with a girl. He was so manly... why hang with a little girl?

Again, Seth and his faces were priceless. I put the marinating fish into the fridge and turned to face my son. "When they started Hogwarts. They were a little older than you," I explained. I really hoped that Seth would not be avoiding making friends just because the kid was a girl. Hopefully if he knew cool Uncle Charlie had female friends, he would at least be nice to this Katie.

I shrugged. I ate some more of the veggies. "We'll see," I said. I was not sure if I would let Katie be my friend... but I will at least be nice to her. I was sure that was what Dad wanted me to do. If Uncle Charlie could be friends with a girl, I could be nice to one.

Just to drive Seth a little nuts, I had to mention Ron and Hermione, too. "Aunt Mione and Uncle Ron were friends in school, too," I informed my five year old. I flashed him a grin. "Don't fill up on those... we're going to have salmon, garlic potatoes, broccoli... it's going to be delicious." I was happy that Seth tried everything. He loved fish... which was great because I loved it. I naturally made it a lot. I think it drove Dora nuts, though.
