With a Cushioning Charm in place Catherine can try holding her tiny baby brother.

She holds him so carefully! And lights up like a little firework!

Awwww.

Awww!

"Jeremy is very lucky to have such a good big sister."

Catherine giggles and plants a messy smooch on Jeremy's head.

And then he can take him back before her arms get tired!

Nearly a dozen European wizarding polities (importantly different in a few cases from Muggle political boundaries), including France, Portugal, and Russia, meet at a summit in Switzerland and all vote not to enforce violations of the Statute of Secrecy unless they are "gratuitous and perverse" (meaning "violating it just to violate it, not incidentally").

Britain is not quite there yet. They send a couple representatives not authorized to vote on things - "lest you get seduced by those mad Italians," Magdalene Malfoy mutters - who come back and propose to the Wizengamot a more limited resolution, affirming that Britain won't interfere in other sovereign countries' Statute enforcement unless violations pose a grievous risk to British secrecy.  

TImothy is pretty sure he can get that approved inside the year.

Elio will be pleased to hear it, if Timothy owls him!

Timothy owls him among dozens of other people; the house is at times rather full of owls. A badly behaved one nips at Catherine.

"BAD OWL." She chases it.

This gets her nipped again and then Theodore whisks the owl off before it escalates. 

"Bad owl!" she exclaims to Theodore.

"He doesn't like you much either. Did you pull his tail or something?"

"No, I pet him, I pet all owls."

"I guess this one didn't like being pet. You can ask them - hold out your hand really still and see if they move towards it - I'll show you -"

"ALL OWLS."

"Nope, not anymore you don't. You pet owls who want to be pet."

"The bad owl bite me!"

"If someone started petting you and you didn't want to be petted you might swat them, right?"

"I go AAAAAH."

"Well, she couldn't go aaaaah so she bit you. If you ask first I bet that won't happen."

"Owls go aaaaah!"

"I guess some of them do. Are you gonna ask first?"
