I woke up at 7:33 on a Monday with a tapping at my window. I wondered what it could be? So I got out of bed and looked out my window to see a white and brown owl at my window waiting to be let in. I walked to the window and I saw the owl had something in its grasp I got closer and saw it was not one not two but 3 letters with emerald green weighting on the front. I let the owl in and it dropped one on the letters on my lap I could not believe it came.
It was my acceptance letter to Hogwarts school of witch craft and wizardry. I saw the owl hitting his beak on my door like to be let free in the house. I opened the door and it started its way to my brothers room and opened the door through the small crack in the door and left a minute later with no letters and out my window again. I dashed to mum and dads room with my letter unopened. I saw my mum ( Ginny Potter) and dad (Harry Potter). My dad is very famous, he killed the dark lord. I jumped on their bed until they where moaning "What is it Lily?" over and over again. When they turned the lamps on and sat up I showed them my letter with a huge cheesy smile that looked a bit like a sticker on my face. My mum congratulated me but dad was super happy for me he picked me up and was dancing with me. "We will go supply shopping today ok?"
How could I say no? "ok " I said with a big smile still on my face, I went to my room and rote an owl to Hugo. I wondered if he got his letter. We both wanted to be in the same house as the rest of our family's Gryffindor. I invited Hugo my closest friend and is parents and sister to Diagon Alley to go shopping. I got a reply in about 1 hour later that they got her letters too and will meet us at Diagon Ally.
We met at the leaky cauldron and headed to Diagon Alley. We went shopping for books and cauldrons. We had gone into Magical Menagerie and my dad let me pick out a companion. I got a cat Rose said that everyone at Hogwarts had one. My new friend was white and brown with blue eyes her name was Trixie. She reminded me of the owl that dropped my Hogwarts letter on my lap earlier this morning. That was probably the reason that I got her. Then we went to Ollivanders to get a new wand. I walked into ollivanders it smelled like wood. The place was made out of wood the floor the ceiling the desk and chairs everything. Mr.Ollivander walked right up to me and asked" ready for you new wand?" I could not wait. "yes I am." I said with the same smile from this morning. It looked like he was ready for all the new 1st years to get there wands he had 1000s of wands shelf upon shelf. He handed me one and said "give it a go!" I made a small circle with the wand but nothing happened. "the last wand for today, ok lily?" said dad after the 14th one. "ok," I replied. This one I felt in my hand that it was different so I tried and a sliver stream of magic came out. I had found my wand! It was a dark wood with small leaves carved on it and it had a unicorn hair just like dads wand. After Ollivanders, we went home. In the car ride home all I could think about was going to Hogwarts being a 1st year. Would it be like dads years? Exiting or like Albus and James years? Calm.
The day finally came September 1st we where driving in our car to kings cross station. Today is the day I go to Hogwarts. Today I start to be a true wizard. I was worried to leave mum and dad but I wanted to go to Hogwarts, yes I did. We stopped at the middle of platforms 9 and 10 to get on to platform 9 3/4 . As I said my good byes to mum and dad with Albus and James we all got on the train together and joined Rose and Hugo in their car. We where 20 minutes into the ride when there was a knock at our door. Trixie hissed. "she never hisses," I said to James. As the door opened I knew why she hissed. It was Scorpius Malfoy. "oh look it is potters kids great!" Scorpius said in a ver sarcastic tone. "Shut it." Said James trying to ignore him. Then he looked at me. Are you scared of the Dementors too little Lily Potter? As he laughed with his friends I said "if it where not for my dad the dark lord would have had us all killed by now you too Malfoy!" He seemed to get very mad at what I said and slapped me in the face and my nose started to bleed. I started to cry so Albus said" I will just say what your father used to say!" "what would that be?" Scorpius shot back "wait until my father finds out about this!" Albus said so the whole train could hear. The train car was rumbling with laughter. Scorpius got mad again then said"I would rather the dark lord over the potters any day!" Then he left. My nose was still bleeding but the witch selling snacks walked by to see what was going on and say my nose and said"oh my what has Malfoy done to you um what is your name?" lily Lily potter." I said proud of my name. The witch handed me a napkin and a chocolate frog. My brothers got same berry botts every flavored beans and chocolate frogs and the witch left when my nose stopped bleeding. I got to enjoy my chocolate frog and the wizard that was on my card was not one but the best Albus Dumbledore.
We got of the train at about 8 o'clock at night. We saw Hagrid who is one of my dads close friends. I finally got to meet him my mum ,dad ,Albus and James talking about him all the time. We went right to the Great Hall to be sorted into a house. Hugo and I wanted to be in Gryffindor with our siblings. I must have waited for 10 minutes until they called Hugo and he got in to Gryffindor. Now the Pressure was on me would i get into Gryffindor. I was next i had butterflies in my stomach as i sat on the stool i keep thinking... get Gryffindor. over and over again. The had went on my head and before I knew it is was a Gryffindor! With my brothers! After the sorting we went to our tower the new password for this year was pig fly. I thought it was funny. I wrote an owl to mum and dad about to day. I think my years will be like dads without the dark lord.
