P.S. in this story, all first years are thirteen because I think eleven is to young for falling in love and all that. just in case your wondering. :)
and it may seem slow at first, but TRUST me! It gets really exciting in later chapters (13+) it gets exciting in chapters thirteen and up.
Thirteen year old Sarah Harmon had been waiting for a certain letter all her life, and that letter was the letter that would say that she would be going to her dream school - Hogwarts.
All the way to the top of the family tree, the Harmon family had attended Hogwarts and were all placed in the same house - Gryffindor, which is also were her parents met, so Sarah assumed her future house would be the same ... That is if the letter ever came.
"Miss Sarah! There's a letter for you!" Miss Hattie yelled through the house. Sarah ran down the stairs as fast as her legs could carry her "it's from a place called Hog... Warts." Sarah's eyes opened wide, and she was so excited that she grabbed the letter right out of the maid's hand. " No need to snatch!"
"Sorry, miss Hattie, I'm just very excited!"
Miss Hattie just shook her head and smiled, not even realizing what she just had in her hand.
Sarah went to a corner of the house were nobody else could see her, and slowly, started opening the letter when she opened it, it said:
Dear Miss Harmon,

Sarah folded the letter up and jumped for joy- she was accepted. (I have to tell my parents.)
"Mom! Dad!" She ran into the living room with a smile on her face.
"What are you so excited about?" Mr. Harmon set down his coffee mug on the table.
"I've been accepted!"
"To Hogwarts?" Mrs. Harmon stood up from her chair.
"Yes! School starts in a week!"
"That's wonderful!" Her mother said, and both her parents hugged her, because the day that they had been waiting for since Sarah's birth had finally arrived.
