I suspect the Hogwarts Book as massive intent wards attached to it - any bad intent towards the children listed inside bars access - because of this the letters are automatically sent out by the Castle using the elves- they would only need to get human input when the child’s entry is left in limbo.
Eg: Harry his letters were destroyed no his placement was in limbo until the book got a decision to register.
Normally in such a case either the castle uses the sorting hat to inform the Headmaster or more likely the Deputy Headmaster of the situation - she then went to Dumbledore to complain at which point he took over telling her he’ll handle it
Dumbledore then most likely decided to tell the castle to keep trying then finally after all that massive muggle baiting he sent Hagrid to retrieve Harry and get his school things
This means Minerva having been assured the Headmaster was now handling Harry’s enrolment personally went back to her own work fully trusting him to do so.

An Idea for how HP can make the Potter Family Tree

Basically the Hogwarts book of names would have every magical birth in the British Isles as far back as the Founding of Hogwarts. Depending on how much you want it to record it would be a great Ancestry Resource - I suspect it would record the child’s name birth date and parents. Maybe the birth entry is in green ink which is why the letters are written in green ink it’s an association confirming their name is still green in the book etc
I suspect it would also record the birth of squibs or all a parent would have to do is see if they are in the book instead they have to wait for the letter at eleven to be sure!
An interesting idea here would be for the a Squib entry to turn red when the hogwarts register finds them not magical enough at eleven to use a wand - it still keep track of their bloodline via the magic until they fully turn muggle way down the line and become fully untraceable - Muggles are brown but only show for two reasons in the book a muggle married a magical so a parent or a muggle child born to a magical parent already in the book basically it is a record of the full loss of magic to that squib branch of a bloodline.
Eg: Petunia is listed in the book as red but Dudley could be either red a squib like his mother or brown a full muggle like his father.
If the invitation to attend Hogwarts is refused a note of why is put next to the name and it turns another colour - if Muggleborn and parents refuse the Ministry probably binds their core so possibly blue ink marking them as made squib not natural.
So colour code
Green - magical core at birth
Green - enough magic to use wand at eleven so gets a letter
Red - not enough magic for wand at eleven so register turns entry red as squib
Blue - letter sent said no as either Home Schooled or going to other magical School
Purple - got the letter but a Muggleborn whose parents said no so the child’s core was bound and family obviated about magic to protect the statute
Brown - Muggle no magical core

GF chocolate buckwheat waffles

Adapted and experimented with from Bon Appetit:
I list the topping as part of the recipe but to be honest, I've never bothered. I top these with fruit from fridge or freezer, or a little butter and maple syrup, or if I have whipped cream on hand, that's my preference.
