I was highly tempted to keep this for myself. LOL. Thank you for submitting this. It's a beautiful story. The delicate balance of mourning and happiness was well done, and I loved how Harry was buttering Molly's toast and how he needed Ginny.

:) *beams* Well, thank you for sticking the story out there. I knew I was late, but when I saw the deadline was Sept 1, I was ready to hit Delete and drown my woes in coffee. ;)

And I'm so very pleased that the balance came across. There was such a lot to balance - somewhere along the way I became convinced that Ginny would never, ever propose. It took those three months to figure out how such an event might happen inadvertently. Zoinks.

My husband took me out to dinner when I finished. ;)

Well, this was so worth the wait! What a great story. I don't think I've read too many 'day after' stories and this one is just spectacular.

Great, great job!

Thank you so very, very much. :)

“Yes,” she agreed. “Clearly, you’ve been practicing on Veelas after all. I find that I don’t really mind.”

*giggle*

this was too wonderful. One of my favorite pieces post-DH.

lol

That line still makes me giggle. Ah, Ginny. :)

Thank you.

I would say that it was also one my favorite post DH stories. Thanks for writing it. Thank you for writing it well. :)

Well, thank you. It's nice to see that all of my grief, tears, and nail-biting actually rendered something pleasant. :)

*sigh* I keep trying to imagine their reunion, and how it would be, and I've read some angsty and some happy pieces, but this was incredibely appropriate and wonderful and *sigh*.:D Brilliant work!
