Walking down Knockturn Alley it isn't unusual to see a familiar face or two...most likely because I, or one of my co-workers, have arrested them at some point in the past. It's a certain fact that Mundungus Fletcher turns tails and runs the moment he sees me. However, seeing a familiar face in uniform, one whom I know to be off duty...is something of a rarity...I mean I know technically I'm off duty and...yeup, in uniform but still...this I just can't resist.

I look up as a file memo flutters over to my desk. I catch it and unfold the little paper plane carefully, reading through. It contains a list of names, a symbol after each one, nothing more. No explanation, though as I requested this information it hardly needs one. The sender probably didn't want to write anything more in case Moody found out. Of course Moody already knows...sort of, but they don't know that.

I stare at the note on my desk feeling the growing ominous sense of dread...no no no no no, Robards cannot do this to me! I stand up and make my way to Moody's office, opening the door and ducking to avoid any automatic hexes he sends my way. "He's got me on babysitting duty!" I announce, showing him the note. "I told him before, he sticks me with those incompetents and someone's going to die."

Turning over in bed I remember what day it is and start to grin to myself. I open one eye and take a sneaky peak. For once I'm actually awake before Remus...I guess there's a first time for everything...but this time four years ago I was freaking out about getting married. Just a quiet ceremony, saved me the trouble of trying to work out bridesmaids when all my closest friends are male.

I don't know why I'm so excited. With nothing big happening...all the big fun happening while I was away and my husband doing a better damn job of being an Auror than I was with the Merridan case, I'll be stuck doing parchment work...but somehow I don't care. I'm out of the house, I'm away from endless, demanding screams and better still, I'm surrounded by people who aren't going to give me the urge to shake them. Anna is so sweet and lovely...and I really want to throttle her for it. Definitely a Type B personality.

After hearing about Ron's new girlfriend, I just have to check her out. I have Felicity in her pram, tucked in incase the wind is chilly before Apparating to Diagon Alley and heading to the Wheezes where this witch is supposed to work.

Five minutes ago Remus got back home. He gave me directions on how to get to Anna's new home, a cottage apparently, not the big manor I've been to before. Leaving Remus with Felicity I Apparate to Anna's cottage, feeling my head spin as I arrive. That's one thing that hasn't settled yet since the pregnancy. I bend double until my head stops spinning, taking a couple of deep breaths before making my way down the path to knock on the door.

For weeks now everything's been getting too much. Since the baby was born...before that even...I'm not a natural mother. Facing facts I suck at being a mother...it's just one of those things I have to battle at, like potions, to do any good at....and since the baby was born all I've heard is how cute she is and crying, all the time crying. And I wanted to scream. I knew then if I didn't get out I was going to do something I'd regret.

Since Charlie left after Remus arrived I haven't had chance to thank him. I'm hoping Megan didn't give him too hard a time for not being at home...but I'm pretty sure she'd be ok with it under the circumstances.

I seem to be doing nothing but sleep since Felicity was born, though it never seems to last long before the pitiful little cries wake me again. She's beautiful...but it's time to introduce her to the rest of the family. With Remus' help I was able to wash and dress, then rest while Remus got Teddy back from Ron. No doubt I'll get visitors later, but right now I need to rest...it'll be exhausting enough dealing with my parents when they arrive.
