Her First Day of School

The first day of school will be the death of me, said Katie's mom. I just don't know how to let go, she's still my little baby. Joyce calm down said Katie's father. Remember when you were her age school was the best place on earth, and look at her now barely able to stay asleep she's so excited. Just get some sleep, the sun will be up soon and we will need an early start to get Katie ready. Ok Bill said Katie's mom, can you check on Katie once more to make sure she's asleep and turn off the lights.
