	Impatient to be out, do you think? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	aye, very. they will be born before the snows are gone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That will be a relief. I've always wondered what it's like, carrying a child, but talking to women here has stopped me romanticising it. Do you have any special customs for new babies? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	it is wonderful at times but at this time, it is sore. if my husband were here, he would name our child nine days after they have been born, and there would be gifts. but he is not. i may ask my lord loki or my lady frigga if they would do this for me, although it would be a great honour if they agreed.

	Is there any way I can help? Healing spells aren't my specialty, but there may be something for the symptoms. I think you should ask them. They might be pleased by the idea. Gifts, we can certainly arrange for. A child deserves a proper welcome into the world. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	if you have anything for a sore back, i would gladly take it. i think i will, yes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Let me see what I can come up with. I'll bring it over to you when I can. Good. I hope they agree. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hello Miss Astrid! That's mean of him. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	_astrid_ 2022-01-16 12:28 am UTC (link)
	hello sirius, how are you? the baby is not really being mean, but i ~~do not think i can get much bigger~~ think there is not much room left so when they move or stretch, they cannot help but kick or bump into things. it is quite uncomfortable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	littlesirius 2022-01-16 10:52 am UTC (link)
	I am very well thank you. How are you? I think that means the baby is getting too big and needs to get born. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_astrid_ 2022-01-16 08:22 pm UTC (link)
	i am also well thank you the baby will be born when they are ready. sadly they will not let me know when that is, until it is that time. are you warm enough when you go out in the snow, sirius? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My mama had a baby last year and she had to rest for weeks and weeks to get ready. It is a bit cold but I wear my hat and I have new boots. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_astrid_ 2022-01-17 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	weeks and weeks? if i did that, then no work in my home would get done! would you like a scarf and mittens? tell me your favourite colour, please. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	littlesirius 2022-01-18 12:55 am UTC (link)
	Mama doesn't do any work only imbroidering and visits but when she was resting she couldn't come to see me. Yes please! My favourite is green. Do you know how to make woolly stockings too that match? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_astrid_ 2022-01-19 09:35 pm UTC (link)
	she must have been very sore. i do know how to make stockings. green is my favourite colour as well, because i like how my hair looks when i wear green clothes. do you think your cousin would like anything? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	littlesirius 2022-01-19 10:10 pm UTC (link)
	I hope I didn't hurt her before I got born. I like your hair. It is a nice colour. Do you mean my uncle? Could you give him a present? He likes green too but he is old so maybe he would want a white scarf or a black one I don't know. Should I sneakily ask him? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_astrid_ 2022-01-20 08:15 pm UTC (link)
	i do mean your uncle, i am sorry. and yes, you should do your best to find out (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[reply comes a little later]

I don't have any cousins yet. I will someday because my uncle Arcturus is going to marry Miss Lucasta next year but not yet.

I asked about what's best to wear in the cold! He said he wishes he had a silvery gray scarf because it would look nice with all his robes that are different colours. And dark gray gloves. He has no gloves now. He has two school hats and a top hat.

	that was very clever of you! i may have a scarf already that he would like, but i will have to make the gloves. what is a top hat? all hats go on top, do they not? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	littlesirius 2022-01-22 04:11 pm UTC (link)
	I will keep it a secret! ~~Imagine if someone had a hat on their bottom~~ Yes but a top hat is a tall hat that is not pointy, it is flat on top. If we see you again and he is wearing it I will tell you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	very good. and thank you (Reply to this) (Parent)
