It very wonderful to see a child grow up. And it is incredible how fast time passes you by.  It felt as if  it were yesterday when she was lying on the hospital bed holding her new baby in her arms. Two years have passed them by and her child was now a toddler. He was growing and developing more each day. She was snapped out of her reverie by her husband placing a  gentle hand on her shoulder.  Once again she was brought back to party planning. She looked over her shoulder and kissed Harry.

Grabbing a tray full of food she made her way to the living room placing it on a light oak wood table on top of the sheer tablecloth. 

She tied her apron on as she re-entered the kitchen and prepared herself for the long hours that were yet to come. 

Narrator 

Ginny made her way to the speaker that was lying right on top of the cabinets. 

Standing on her tippy toes she grabbed the speaker and turned it on putting it back to where she found it. 

Scrolling through her playlist she chose the on that said some weird title she gave it.

Music started blasting through the house 

Don't be that way
Fall apart twice a day
I just wish you could feel what you say
Show, never tell
But I know you too well
Kind of mood that you wish you could sellIf teardrops could be bottled
There'd be swimming pools filled by models
Told a tight dress is what makes you a whore
If "I love you" was a promise
Would you break it, if you're honest
Tell the mirror what you know she's heard before
I don't wanna be you anymore

She sang along her melodious voice ringing through the empty house

as she baked the cake that was to be given to the guests

they were going to be piling into the house in just a few hours 

She put the cake in the oven and with her hip shut the oven

She then placed the cake on a cake holder that spun around

the cake frosting was blue decorated with some of James favorite toys. 

There was a wand that didn't work but it served for decoration he loved playing around with his fake wand, there was a bear , the stuffed plushie they got him at birth, and finally his favorite toy in the world Mr. Hugsies.

This toy was especially important to James as it was the one he hugged whenever he got scared or felt lonely. 

it was only right to include it in.

2 hours later

the clock marked 1p.m when ginny got out of the kitchen. She had been cooking for more than half a day there.

Exhausted ginny stumbled up the stairs and into her bedroom.

She collapsed on the bed  not even setting an alarm

not soon after her head touched the soft white pillow 

she fell asleep

she was suddenly wakened up from her deep slumber only by the doorbell ringing 

quickly standing up pushing past the dizziness of standing up so quick she rushed to the window.

the first guest had arrived

rushing  down the steps her apron and old  t-shirt and shorts still on she opened the door to reveal her mum

a relieved sigh escaped her lips.

Molly Weasley took in the sight of her young daughter

Her hair was up in a messy bun, she had flour stains on her apron, and overall she looked like a mess

Ginny dear go take a shower and change ill finish the rest of the prep

where do i leave this gift  she said showing Ginny the beautifully wrapped blue striped gift

ginny led her mum towards the table for gifts and Molly carefully placed hers there

Looking at the time she saw there was only a 3 hours left ill the guest began to arrive.

Rushing up the steps and going to her bathroom she ran the water and took all her clothes up.

stepping into the shower she thought about the outfit she would wear 

not only that but she also had to take care of james who was currentley sleeping

She finished taking the shower and then hopped out

quickly she blow dryed her hair aplied her makeup styled her hair and went out to the master bedroom

Slipping into a purple flowy dress  with black high heels she finished her looks just in time for the door bell to ring

she gracefully welcomed Hermione and Ron in

they were followed by  more people 

as the rest of the guest started to pour in she continued to stand there welcoming them in

Harry came down holding a handsome looking James in his arms

they all rushed to him

cooing all over the place

It was the best birthday and everything went as planned

they played his birth film and his first steps laughing and crying as they all rejoiced in  the memory of him as a baby
