Mum and Daddy fight, a lot. My brothers never seem to notice, but I hate it. If Al or James is home when they start to fight, I usually hide in their room. When I am the only one home and they are fighting, I try to ignore it. I can't wait until I am old enough to go to school with my brothers.
I don't really know why they fight so much. I do know when they fight though. They fight when Daddy leaves to go to work and when he comes home from work late. They fight when Mum says she wants to play Quidditch again and Daddy says he can't stop working till all those bad Death Eating People are locked up. Mum will usually start to scream then, saying things like she hates being trapped in a house full of kids all day and why can't she work with adults like Daddy? I wish Mum didn't mind playing with me so much. I love it when we have tea parties and things, but I try to leave her alone whenever I can so that she doesn't feel like she's stuck with a kid like me.
Mum and Dad fight the most when Daddy doesn't come home from work. These are the times when we go visit him in the hospital. I know that one time he spent a really long time in St. Mungo's. It felt like years and years, but James tells me all of the time that it was only a week. I don't like going to St. Mungo's to see Daddy though, because when I go they always make me drink yucky potions and cast spells on me that prick my skin or tap my knee or make my skin itch. Daddy must get the same spells and potions because he is always grumpy when we go to see him. Mummy gets grumpy when we go too, and when she brings us back home she yells more than usual.
I love to go over to Grandma Molly's house to play. Grandma always gives me hugs and kisses and Pumpkin Pasties. She and I play in the kitchen, making cookies and pies. Then she lets me curl up in Grandpa's lap. Grandpa usually calls me Ginny, which is Mummy's name, but that is all right because he tells me funny stories about Muggle things. He told me he made a car fly once, which sounds so neat! I usually have to correct him about things though, like how to say “telephone” and “electricity,” and that the television doesn't really have tiny people living in it. Grandpa falls asleep a lot, so when he does I sleep with him in his wheelchair. Grandma will usually come over and pick me up and tuck me into bed in what used to be Mum's room. It's very peaceful at Grandma and Grandpa's house.
It's also fun to go visit Grandmeda. She's actually Teddy's grandmother, but she lets my brothers and I call her that too. She and Teddy make all kinds of jokes and play around with each other. Teddy is already in Hogwarts, so he will tell me stories about what it is like when he's home on break. When he isn't home, Grandmeda and I sew doll clothes and talk. I tell her about Mum and Daddy's fights sometimes. She tells me that it's okay for everyone to fight, but she always talks to Mum when I get picked up and the fights stop for a little while. Not for long though.
When I go over to Hugo's house to play, I see Aunt Hermione and Uncle Ron fight sometimes too. They fight differently than my parents do. Aunt Hermione usually just rolls her eyes instead of yelling. Uncle Ron will glare at Aunt Hermione for a minute, until she offers him a little smile, and then he'll grin at her and they'll hug. At home, fights usually end in doors slamming, either from Mum shutting herself up in her bedroom or Daddy storming out of the front door. I've never seen them stop fighting when James or I walk into the room the way my aunt and uncle do when Rose or Hugo walk by. Sometimes I wish I could trade places with Hugo.
I love my family though, even when they fight or Al tickles me or James hides frogs in my bed. I miss my brothers when they go off to Muggle school without me every morning. Daddy leaves so often too, and he goes to work for ages and ages at a time. If I left home I think I would miss them terribly. I'm always glad when everyone is home, even if it means more fighting and pranks, because that is what makes my family mine.
