My Darling Birdie,
It's nice to branch out and work with other people sometimes. I'm glad you're getting to experience the new classes. New experiences are what school is good for!
I am quite pleased to hear you are enjoying Muggle Studies. It feels like another lifetime ago, I barely remember what it was like, living without magic (thought I suppose I never really did, but being able to use it is another thing entirely!), but I will try and think back on my childhood to see if I have any good information. If you have any specific questions please do let me know. I did not take Divination, I didn't have room, but I'm not sure I would have been any good at it either. Stick with it for a little while yet, you may find some aspect of it you are good at.
If it is new dresses you would like, it is new dresses you shall get. Do you think we might steal away a small portion of your next visit to town to get fitted? You're growing like a beansprout and I would hate for them to be ill-fitting. This way you can pick out the colors you would like and tell me more about the flowers.
Everyone sends their love. I am so very proud of you, Birdie.
All my love,
Mother
