1866: Margaret, a sister, is born.
1868 And the final Spring child proves to be another sister named Felicity. The same year, Harrys Hogwarts letter comes and decides not to go.

His father manages to wrangle him a Stable Boy position.

1873: Jonathon goes off to Hogwarts.
1874: This same year, a group of Harrys friends buy him a wand for his seventeenth birthday as well as to celebrate his promotion to Groom! Needless to say, he is quite thrilled. This same year is when he fully comes to the acceptance that he is both only sexually attracted to men and also that he has had a crush on his BFF for years.

1885: Harry is still not saying a word about his feelings for his BFF. It gets harder as each day goes by since they seem to do everything together! Of course, this is because his BFF assumes they're already lovers but Harry doesn't exactly know that. Because he is awkward.
