Ginny's First Year at Hogwarts
Oh my goodness, I just realized I read and forgot to review. I'm so sorry. Well I'm here to review now. Poor Ginny, I think it only gets worse. As for Molly I really enjoy those "Well-deserved passionte lie-in's" myself. I can't wait until my kids are old enough that I get some more of those. Of course that would mean that they are growing, and I'm not ready for that. Anyway great chapter, I can't wait to find out what happens next.

Thanks for "coming back" to leave your review.

Alas, we all know what happens next to Ginny! I break my stories at September First, so we do have Egypt to look forward to.

This year is far easier to fill in than next year when Ginny just about disappears from the pages and no one tells Molly much of anything. Thank Merlin, she still has Arthur.

This is a good chapter. I like the daily interaction with Molly and Arthur. The letters have a lot more to say than meets the eye. I like the way important facts are thrown in with the day to day comments. Ginny sleelpwalking? Molly's present had a rooster instead of flowers? Very well done. Thanks for writing. p

I'm so glad you liked this chapter. I am seeking out good stories about Arthur because I think he is such a great character and parent. I really liked Firefly which is up at Phoenix song now.

Obviously, all that is happening to Ginny must be obscured to be true to canon. Arthur and Molly need to be totally stunned when Dumbledore reveals the truth.

Another chapter should be up next weekend. I'm now working on December of 1993.

Interesting. The only glaring thing that stands out is that every time you mention Harry, you have to say Harry Potter. i realize that maybe that first year he would have been still a celebrity to the Weasleys, but this is the 2nd year they've known him - he's already gotten a weasley sweater by this point.

Just seems strange.

Keep it up!

Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Ginny is still in the 'fan girl' phase so she always refers to him by his first and last name. Mostly the rest of the family doesn't, except, of course Percy.

In my version of the Harry Potter Universe, Molly and Arthur knew Lily and James so they also knew Harry once he arrived. Molly has be Obliviated to protect Harry and the Weasleys from Voldemort and his Death Eaters. This is actually the third story in a series.

The first one is called The Early Years.
