Summary
"If my mother and sisters can celebrate their birthdays with balls and parties and all manner of fine things, then my wife can expect at least some splendour on her own. Good day.”
As Mr Bridgerton swept out of the room, Mrs Crabtree knew with a bone-aching certainty that any such splendour that he spoke of was likely to come at the expense of her and her husband. Still, much like her master, she would be hard pressed to find someone she would rather see having a joyful birthday celebration than Mrs Sophie Bridgerton.
--
Mrs Crabtree is used to going above and beyond in her role as housekeeper at My Cottage, but as Sophie's birthday approaches and she is forced to withhold secrets from both husband and wife on behalf of the other? Well, she is not entirely sure that she is paid enough to deal with all of the mess that follows.
or: answer to the prompt, "Sophie’s first birthday post wedding"

Summary
Sometimes, things happened when they were least expected. Thoughts that had once meandered quietly in the peripheries of your mind suddenly exploded into the forefront of rational thought, fully formed and demanding your attention. This was one of those times. So, when Harry looked at Ginny and found her already turned to him, pale eyebrows drawn together and her bottom lip tucked under her front teeth in confusion, all he could think was oh.
Oh.
Ginny was really pretty.
What the fuck.
