I walked onto platform 9 3/4 with my children and husband. William looked at me and said "Mummy, promise you'll write me during the school year. It's dreadful having Mark lord over me and Victoria acting cutesy and innocent to get what she wants." I smiled and said "William James Holmes, why would I not write you? And I'll talk to your siblings about that." The Raven haired little boy hugged me around the waist and said "Thanks mum." I pulled my blonde daughter and son to the side and said "Mark, do stop being overbearing. It's torture for Will to have to deal with that on top of being a first year. And Victoria, try not manipulating everyone. It's hard to deal with." Both nodded and said "Yes mum." They hugged me then their father and boarded the train. We waved to our children as they yelled their goodbyes.
