Today is the day, Potter fans. Our favorite Twitter-ing author, J. K. Rowling, took to her favorite social media site this morning and let us know that James Sirius Potter would be catching the Hogwarts Express for the first time today! The Hogwart’s school year always begins on September 1st. Today, Harry Potter’s first-born caught the train to begin his time at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

As we all know, James would have left the train upon arrival and caught a boat to the historic school. And before dinner, he and the other new arrivals had to be sorted into houses. Rowling took to Twitter a second time today to keep us updated.

Obviously, the internet has exploded with these bits of news, with fans wishing the eldest young Potter well and the lucky few able to tweet about catching glimpses of the boy at the train station this morning. SisterGeeks joins the masses in wishing James well at Hogwarts. We know he’ll do great and make us all proud.
