She had books she could read about it anyway. Somewhere. "I left the box in the common room for a few weeks with stuff for people to write their own notes, too. People reaaaalllly like you, y'know? There's quite a few in there." Or...there weren't... until Els had mentioned it to Tam in a letter and she'd mentioned it to Lori and Lori had sent her own.

It was all quite confusing. Either way...Elodie knew there were a bunch of little Stemp notes in tbhere too. Clearly Tam's friend and her posse of children had all wrote notes for whatever reason.

She brushed her hair back and smiled. "They're doing cool, I think. Had a few settling in hiccups, and a twin separated from her sister...but I think I covered it pretty well. How was your time away?" With the baby. How was the baby? Was he more adorable than anything? Did he do anything cool yet? Poop sparks?

Fina flushed slightly at Elodie's reaction to hearing the baby's name. Honestly she didn't know how anyone would react to the name who wasn't as 'into' numbers as she or her husband were but choosing such an uncommon name made sense for them. "Well considering I didn't know I was pregnant until four months in and I didn't know it was a boy until about 35 weeks, then no, not really," she mused, shaking her head. "But we did consider several options and in the end Septimus just seemed to fit when we were at St Mungos"

Okay okay ... this was just ........ breathe .... Hadley blinked at the seventh year when she explained her process of leaving the box in the common room for several weeks for people to write stuff. "That's ... I'm ... we're touched, really."

But onto the other news of the hour. About her other babies. "Always are, huh? A few that just seem to not want to let go. But oh? The sorting hat broke up a set of twins? Interesting... I hear we have two sets of twins actually this year?" She asked skeptically. What was in the water in the late 2060s she had no idea, but there was something with all the spouts of twins. "My time away was amazing! Bonding with Septimus and Addison and ... I just didn't want to leave them. But I had signed on for this year and I had a duty to you guys to be there for you. The baby sleeps a lot. And eats. I mean he's a few months old..."

She was head of Hufflepuff so she probably should have guessed she would be nice, but it wasn't a law for Hufflepuff's to be nice.

Anyway. She pushed all thoughts away and tried not to be nervous as she knocked on the door. She'd owled ahead and made an appointment, so Hadley should be expecting her.

Hadley had an amazing Winter Holiday with her husband and baby and it broke her heart to leave them again come January. But she was getting over the idea slowly and now a month in, she was just staring lovingly at the picture frame ... watching Septimus crawling around their flat made her smile. They grow up so fast and he wasn't even a year yet.

But there was a knock. Her appointment with the first year, no doubt. Setting the frame back on the desk, she glanced at the door, "Come in," she called, thinking that in just a few years this first year outside her door would fly for the first time or sit her OWL exams or her NEWT exams or take her apparition test ... she'd seen it happen before. Heartbreaking experiences for both the youngster and the teacher.
