    My Lovely Firefly,
          I imagine you've been too busy exploring Hogwarts to pay much attention to the election in the news, but if you can get your hands on a copy of the Prophet today you'll see a familiar face; your Mama is running for Minister. I believe your mother is planning on writing you a letter later today and explain why she wanted to run, but I wanted to make sure you heard right away.

          I'm sorry we didn't tell you earlier, but things have been very busy for both of us since you and Tia left for school, and I knew how excited you were to be at Hogwarts. We didn't want to distract you with adult things when you had plenty on your plate already!

          This shouldn't affect you at all, at least until after the election is over. All you need to do is keep focusing on your schoolwork and on having fun at Hogwarts! If you have any questions, though, of course you know you can always write to me or your Mama.

    Love,
    Papa

    That's so exciting! Mama's gonna be a great Minister, I can tell already - I wish we had known before so that I could have wished her good luck before the paper came out! I don't think she'll need luck, though - Mama's the smartest best candidate I'm sure. Right?

    School is going well I think - I'm not very good at Charms but I like everything else. Hogwarts is so much fun though!

    Love,
    Firefly

    Firefly,
          That's right. Your Mama is a very good candidate. But there are lots of people in the world who don't think that women can do all of the things that men can do (you've probably met a few at Hogwarts already). They're wrong, but since they have that prejudice it will be very hard to convince them to vote for your Mama - or any woman - for Minister. She'll have to work very hard to convince them.

          I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying all your classes. If you're still struggling with Charms by the time you come home for Christmas, maybe I could help you. I took Charms all seven years at Hogwarts, you know.

    Love,
    Papa
