The thought of Fred & George as toddlers sends shivers up my spine.  
To add other little ones to the mix - and another on the way - is 
way more than I want to contemplate.

Laura again:

Sorry, still not buying.  We didn't have twins but we did have kids 
2 1/2 years apart, so I do remember all too well how utterly 
exhausted you get.  Still...this is a war we're talking about here.  
Are you arguing that there was *nothing* either Arthur or Molly 
could do to help the cause?  I repeat, no one was safe while LV and 
his little friends were powerful.  Getting involved in the fight 
against the force that threatened everyone's lives would have been 
the best way to make sure your kids grew up.  

Okay, I'm pretty ticked off at Molly for insulting Sirius (in his 
own house yet) and being generally overprotective and annoying but 
still...
