I might have forgotten that I had this thing. Isn't that nice? Maybe I've just been way too busy with work. Or with my husband considering my children are finally out of the house
Serena and Owen's first year started. I can't believe for the first time, the house is completely quiet. This would also be the first time they won't be at home for my birthday next week.
Wait, maybe that's a good thing. I would hate for them to tell me how old I've gotten.

So, training those fresh out of Hogwarts isn't as bad as I thought. Half of them are pretty scared, because well, I don't know who it was that visited the school and talked to them, but it must have been some pretty scary things.
S'alright. I like that they're intimidated by me.
The only downside is that they tend to be more jumpy and edgy and are slower in learning this way. Then I get exasperated and that doesn't help their situation either.
Merlin, I was not born to be a teacher. It took me several hundred times to get my point across to Serena and Owen when they were two and three that no, crawling into the pantry and banging on pots and pans is not entertaining.

Oh, how spiffy. Starting next week, I get to work with fresh-out-of-school trainee Aurors.
Grand. Oh, Merlin, help me

It's been MUCH too long since I've had a journal. And honestly, I felt quite silly writing in here, especially since my children are already of that age to be writing in one themselves. They'll both be attending Hogwarts this year for their first time and are quite excited. Except Wayne and I tend to have arguments and I think both children will end up in Gryffindor and he thinks they'll be in Hufflepuff.
I'm quite sure at least Serena will be in Gryffindor especially considering she's as reckless and rebellious as I was once but only time will tell.

Watching them grow up and in the same position as we once were.. I have to admit, that's incredibly moving. I can't believe my babies are so big already. The house is really going to feel empty once they're gone.
But, hey, on the brighter side, they'll be getting education outside the house and Wayne and I are going to make the most of no one else being home!
