There were moments when Lily had to pinch herself. They were short and fleeting snapshots, but every now and then, she caught a sight of her life from a new angle and she couldn't quite believe how far they had all come. The war was over. They no longer had to live their life looking over their shoulder and their biggest problems revolved around juggling family life with work commitments--a stark contrast to waking each morning wondering whether it would be their last. As she stood in the garden, her gaze shifting over the garden in full bloom and a warm mug of coffee in her hands, she sighed in contentment.
It was only when she cast a glance through the kitchen window that her vision snapped back into focus, the hum of everyday life bringing her back to the present. Her 'present' as she walked through the back door was a bawling Nate (he had been told there were no biscuits left because he had stolen the last one) and Harry--who was well underway planning his own birthday party, Giant Squid and all. The giant tentacles were overtaking the pirate ship, much to Harry's glee. Yes, he was his father's son.
Scooping Nate into her arms, she pointed her wand towards Harry's picture and lifted squid straight from the paper. Harry beamed before going in quick pursuit of the paper creature as it darted towards James' study.
