"You're married... that's just..." he grinned and reached to touch the little girl's hand as she chewed at her cracker before dropping it back into his lap so he wouldn't disturb her. "And kids! Wow..."

And a Department Head, no less. Raiden couldn't really hide the fondness in his expression, the pride in what she had accomplished with her life. When they'd met... she hadn't thought she could leave Hogsmeade even for a day trip. But she had done all of this.

"I told you, didn't I? That you could do things." And she'd done so much more than 17 year old Raiden could have ever imagined.

His glance at her hands did not go unnoticed, and Emmalee also let her gaze settle on the ring Iwin had had made for her. She looked back up at Raiden and nodded. She had an urge to gush about Iwin, but wondered if that would be weird. Instead, she watched as Roswynn shook her cracker at Raiden and giggled, causing Emmalee to smile. "They'll be a year next month," she said, bouncing Roz on her knee a little. "Jeannie... Jeanelle, is the one nodding off in the stroller.. and this is Roswynn." Emmalee's face conveyed every single shred of love and affection for her girls as she introduced them. Motherhood suited her. Softened her.

She looked up at him, at his next, and her eyes began to tear ever so slightly. "You did. You were the only one who believed I could and if you hadn't.. I couldn't have taken even that first step." Wow, this was surprisingly emotional, and Emmalee sighed heavily as she used her free hand to wipe at the corner of her eye. "That.." she laughed a little bit. "that was the other part of the letter."

Another deep breath and she'd composed herself. "Enough about me, what about you? Where have you been? What do you do? Do people still randomly transfigure you into animals for fun?"
