School Is Not So Scary

Christian lay in bed, listening to the soft whispers of the night. Mom came in, her voice gentle, 'Tomorrow is a big day, your first day of school.' Christian felt a flutter in his stomach, a mix of excitement and nerves. Dad joined, offering a comforting hug, 'School is a place of adventure, you'll see.' Together, they talked about all the fun Christian would have, easing his worries into dreams.
