Dear Sybille,
At the time it seemed quite reasonable with the way he acts, though as an adult I do believe that it was a tad too childish. The class was interesting, though not something I would have likely taken for my own enjoyment or enrichment. That is my own personal preferences. You are, of course, a different person with different interests.

I don't expect you to agree with her. If I am to be honest, I do not agree with her on the matter entirely. Though I do feel that perhaps you should keep baking as a hobby rather than spend your allowance on a shop and so many supplies and such. That is a discussion for when you are older, and it does not mean that I don't support your dreams. Owning anything bigger than a dress is a complex matter in and of itself.

Perhaps we shall spend time in the country estate as a family for a week or so. It is nice, bigger than I am used to. Though we do have that estate in Wales. Father and mother both preferred London. I can't blame them, as I can not see them enjoying this calm and quiet for so long. I find it calming. Not much can be done no matter where we live due to the mourning period, though the country estate certainly is a great place to be away from all of the odd looks and such.

I believe mother once mentioned our nursery was in such a state due to the fact that she was constantly worried that we would choke on something. We will certainly be looking into spells to prevent such things. A garden sounds nice, and I'm sure Lucille will love that idea.

From,
Ace
