No Longer a Pre-schooler!
My big boy Justin graduated from Pre-school this week! They did a really nice job with the ceremony. The kiddos started out by singing some songs like "Jesus Loves Me" with sign language.
Then they said the pledge of allegiance.
Then they lined them all up and had them come down the aisle one at a time. While each kiddo walked down the aisle they talked about them. It went something like this, "Justin is going to Hardy Oak Elementary school next year. He wants to be t-ball player when he grows up, not to be mistaken for a baseball player. His favorite thing to do is to play with Indiana Jones Legos. He wins the All-Boy award. From calling his friends 'dude' to setting up adventures on the playground, he is ALL BOY!"




When he got to the front, she gave him his diploma.


Then they sang the "Kindergarten Song." It goes like this:
Kindergarten here we come,
We know we'll have lots of fun.
We'll have lots of things to make and do.
Reading, Writing, Counting too.
Kindergarten here we come,
We know we'll have lots of fun!
Then... they had a balloon release to symbolize leaving pre-school behind!



This is Aymee. Justin adores her & calls her his girlfriend.

Here's his buddy Xavi!
Proud big brother Josh.
Proud Mama! I was so proud of him. He was so brave & outgoing up on stage! He has asked me every day since the graduation when he gets to go to "Josh's big school." I'm going to make a count-down chart, to avoid continually answering that question!

Two down... one to go!
