Kira-Kira chapters 14-16 Response

I think that Lynn's death has changed Katie's life path a lot. After Lynn died, Katie began to do many things that Lynn had wanted to do, or wanted Katie to do. Such as doing better in school, "I worked harder at school, because that was one of Lynn's last wishes." Also, Katie was the one who suggested that the family take a vacation to California, because Lynn had always wanted to go to the sea. I think that as Katie gets older, she will continue to do things that would make Lynn happy. She'll probably go to college, maybe buy an apartment in Chicago or a house by the sea, like Lynn had always talked about doing. Katie will take care of her family, and put others before her, like Lynn did, and like Katie started doing after Lynn's death. I think that Katie will live a very good, happy life, because Lynn will always be with her in her thoughts and memories, and Katie will want to please Lynn in every way that she can.
