WOW--what a relief! I can stop banging my head against that one now.
Interesting change: JKR didn't preserve the line "she [now, would be "he"]
wants to see you" . . . do dads not have that same tenderness that would
make a man who died in his son's infancy simply long to see his son grown
up? JKR has disappointingly conventional gender expectations at times . . .
whoa, I did NOT say that, don't want to be held responsible for starting
that argument! ;-)
Thanks, Carole--
