001 - Out like a lamb
Spring is certainly in the air, and I've already given the whole of the house a good cleaning. It is refreshing to begin to decorate for the lighter months. Out with the hearty, darker colors and in with the blues, pinks, and lavenders.

[Warded Private to Sirius & Regulus Black]

I am considering a surprise party for Nymphadora's birthday. Twenty-Five seems such an important number. If you are interested, perhaps I could make a reservation at the restaurant?

Regulus, dear, it seems that Dora prefers your confidence to mine. What friends of her might I invite? Is there anyone special that she has been keeping from me? ~~A mother can dream, after all.~~

If you have some free time this weekend, would you care to get a cup of tea with your dear, old mum? It has been too long since we spent some quality time together.

	Lavender is such a wonderful colour, isn't it? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Indeed, it is one of my favorites. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do you usually redo your house every spring then? I've been thinking about a re-do of at least our kitchen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I try to. Once your children have fully grown and moved into houses of their own, you have to find ways to make living in an empty house more interesting. I'd love to see what you would do with your kitchen, Lily. I think you would have a knack for that sort of thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh Andromeda, you're too sweet. If I end up having to take time off work, then I'll probably have to find something else to busy myself with of course. The kitchen is a good start! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Let me know if you'd like help with anything. It is rather fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thank you, Andromeda, I'll keep you in mind. (Reply to this) (Parent)

She's twenty-five? How is that possible when I haven't aged a day? Blimey.

Consider the entire restaurant reserved! I'll come up with some ideas for a menu. I'm sure Reg and I can come up with something spectacular. I have some new business acquaintances using Grimmauld for a laboratory so I'll ask them about decorations. They really are quite spectacular at what they do.

	Yes, twenty five. Can you believe I've been a mother for that long? I feel ancient. Sirius, you are such a dear. Just tell me what you need me to do to help prepare and I will be there. And name your cost. I have no idea what sort of price you ask for reserving the entire restaurant, but I do want it to be a rather spectacular event for Dora. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cost? Don't be absurd. It will cost you an evening of having to put up with my company. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sirius Black, don't be silly. It is still your business, and I will still pay you for your services. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Just us, dear. Not even your father. I have spent far too much time with him in the house all winter and am looking forward to some time to catch up with my daughter. You name the time and place. My treat,, of course. Perhaps some shopping after? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What about the pizza place I like in Central London, near Oxford? Think you can stomach that? Yeah, that sounds good. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Dora _andromeda 2012-04-01 06:50 am UTC (link)
	Yes, I think I can handle the pizza place. Sunday afternoon? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	That sounds brilliant, Andromeda. As far as people to invite, I think it's safe to say the entire Weasley clan, the Potters, Hestia and Gwenog Jones ~~though inviting the latter could be interesting~~, Meaghan McCormack and her brother - Kirley Duke, Joey Jenkins, and her fellow aurors. She mentioned that she was seeing someone. I'll try to get his name out of her. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you so much, Regulus, you are such a dear. There is someone? She hasn't said a thing to me. ~~I wish she would talk with me more.~~ (Reply to this) (Parent)
