Alice made me get one of these but I'm not certain I know how they work. Hello hello hello hello hello hello?

Anyway I'm supposed to write in here and say that Alice and I are very excited because we have news. The news is that we are expecting. Alice told me two days ago and I have been bumping into things ever since. It was a surprise to say the least. But it's good news because even though we weren't planning on more children we're quite happy that we will be having more children.

Alice is sleeping at the moment but when she is awake I'm sure she'll have more to say. I'm not the writer in the family she is.

She wants to tell Neville but we can't of course. It upsets her quite a bit and makes me want to pop Voldemort's head clean off all the more. 

Are we mad for bringing a child into this broken world?

Oh my goodness, Frank! Congratulations! Arthur and I are thrilled to hear the news. When is the baby due? How is Alice feeling? Does she need anything? I remember what dreadful trouble she had with morning sickness when she had Evelyn. I can owl her some ginger tea which might help with the nausea, if that becomes a problem. Poppy can probably send along some pregnancy vitamins that she should take, too.

It's wonderful news, Frank, never doubt it. Yes, times are very troubled, but each new baby entering the world brings hope along with it. And hope is what we need right now.

Oh Frank -

I don't know what to say to you but Merlin.

Congratulations, I suppose, is what one says, and I do mean it. Only I can't help but think you're mad. You must forgive me. Perhaps it's a good kind of mad.
