I loved this. It was good to see Harry/Ginny in an older setting, dealing with grown-up problems but still being themselves.

Thank you - so glad you enjoyed it!

It will take me awhile to read all of the fest fics, but yours is near the top of my list.

"Cancel it," Ginny said firmly. "There's another broomstick I want to ride."

HA! Ginny, you saucy minx! This was lovely. Very...mature and real, and I like how they have problems, but ultimately don't let them come between them. I also randomly love the bit about Neville and the Wolfsbane - I love that he's good at potions.

Aw, thanks! It was awfully nice of you to read this - it had their kids in it and everything :)

And yeah, Ginny's not one to get tired of the sexin....

This is really fantastic and ...real. I'm still enjoying it.

Great! I'm so glad you like it! And have you seen that masterlist? I'm in H/G heaven.

Oh L! This is wonderful!

I was getting so frustrated with their schedules too! But lovely in the end and the compromises and the love they have for each other after all these years.

And the ending is just perfect!

I was getting so frustrated with their schedules too!

Hee. I totally cheered (like, in the beta document) when Harry said he was quitting!

Thank you, doll! When I first saw the request, I thought "Harry would never retire - he's always wanted to be an Auror." But then I started thinking about what might make him want to leave the Ministry, and I knew he'd have to be really fed up with it to leave.

I'm glad you liked the end - they have nothing to do but each other for four days!

Fun as it was to get a sneak peek at this, it's lovely to see the final version. I just love how determined they both are to keep working at things. There doesn't ever seem to be a doubt that they need to stay together - it's just a matter of working out how.

Aw, thanks! Your input helped a lot with keeping it focused. A good beta is the best friend a story can have :)
