| It's a good thing that Molly and Arthur have Ginny or they wouldn't get nearly so much mail! The Dementor attack was a great idea and I enjoyed seeing what animal forms their Patronuses took. Of course, I hadn't given much thought to Arthur's being a Weasel, but now I see it as a really funny picture in my head. Sorry to hear that you lost your original, it must have been a pain to reconstruct this all! Looking forward to the next. |

Thanks Ryan. You have been pretty busy yourself with real life, work, and the stories that you have just posted.
If I knew how to set up files in Word, I'd do a better job of keeping track of all the chapters. I still don't know how I deleted a whole chapter but the pre-Beta, bookish 327, had her copy with comments. Getting rid of comments is tedious but can be done.
I'm working on April, 1998 in Ginny's Sixth Year so there won't be any more letters now that they have gone into hiding. She will have Harry to write to in her seventh year. |

| I'm still the worst about reviewing. In effort to make amends: Well done. Keep the updates coming and all that. |

Thank you, I am glad that you are enjoying my retelling from Molly's point of view.
The story is getting darker so we need to enjoy all of the moments of love and laughter even more. |

Hi Kate, I'll bet you learned to make multiple copies after that, didn't you. lol
Charlie & Kathleen were always one of my favourites in St Margarets world.
Sounds like this will be a really intense year but good to see that Arthur and his Mollywobles haven't lost an ounce of romance.
Until next time, take care. C |

Ah, the joys of writing in a program that is still a mystery to me! The rough draft of Ginny's Fifth Year is finished and about half has been Pre-Betaed.
My Universe overlaps with the delightful Universe of St Margarets. I also love Kathleen and needed to introduce her so she can live with Tonks for part of Ginny's Sixth Year. I am working on the chapter when Ginny comes home at Easter Break, Teddy is born, and the Trio is caught.
Yep, Arthur and Molly are still in love. Sigh! |

Oo! Two good chapters! I like all the new background action that shows the deterioration of wizarding society and the social patterns affected by Voldemort and his minions. The family letters were delightful to read and Fred and George are always good for a laugh.
I sincerely commiserate with you over lost chapters. However, sometimes the reconstructed chapters end up being better than the original and I hope this was the case with this chapter.
I enjoyed it and chapter one so much that they each get ! Looking forward to the next installment. |

Thanks Arnel! I am still trying to learn to use Word and literally deleted my master copy. Fortunately I had sent the rough draft to bookish-327 so could reconstruct a clean copy from the one that pointed out all my imperfections. I have to figure out how to file chapters soon.
Ginny's Fifth Year has a lot of foreshadowing for the terrible situation in the Wizarding world when Voldemort takes control. I happen to be working on the chapter when Ron is caught by the Snatchers and the Weasleys have to go hide out at Auntie Muriel. The twins and Auntie Muriel - now that's some snappy dialogue. |

| Another wonderful chapter. So far Ginny is keeping her love life quite secretive. Probably a wise decision on her part. Great job! |

| Thanks for reading and reviewing. This is the year that Harry, Ron, and Ginny all come home for Christmas so Molly and Ginny can have their Mother-Daughter talk then. |

| I like that Molly has found that all her practice has paid off. Better safe than sorry. I also liked that she promoted a pamplet that could actually help her fellow witches. That was very insightful of you. Glad you were able to reconstruct your chapter. I enjoyed it alot. |

Thanks for reading and reviewing. Molly and Corrine have been working on dueling for quite a while. Molly can't stand the thought of Spell Damaged children.
I never pictured anything but the big angry hen for Molly's Patronus. |

Now we understand why the credit card charges are suddenly so high.
Thanks for reading and reviewing when you are so busy. The children come home for Christmas this year so we will have some Harry and Ginny flirting.
Politics in the US is in a Days of Destiny-like plot. Who wouldn't be fascinated? |
