Having finished his shift at Atticus’s Attic for the day, Heath decided to stop in Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes on the way home. Both of his children had birthdays coming up in September. Conor was turning four, and Heather was going to be a year old. Merlin, where had the time gone?!
He made his way to the toy section, perusing the options. After a few minutes, he picked up a magizoo set and enchanted paper airplane for Connor and a bear-hug bear and Peeves-in-the-box for Heather. Anything else? He glanced around, his dark eyes momentarily landing on a fairy doll. Maybe in another year or two, when Heather would be old enough to enjoy it properly.
Making a mental note to speak to the shopkeeper about getting balloons delivered to the house on the actual dates, he turned away. On his way to the counter, he passed the pygmy puff area. He smiled at the little pink and purple creatures, fondly recalling his first pet pygmy puff. He was younger than Connor when he got her. Technically she had been his brother’s, but Heath sort of inherited her when Fiyero left for Hogwarts. He wondered if Connor would like a puff of his own to care for. Certainly a conversation to have with Claudine on the subject…
