Graduation Day

If I am teary-eyed at a preschool graduation, I wonder how emotional I'll be when college graduation rolls around?

Today Beth finished up her preschool years with an adorable graduation ceremony. Our family sat together on our assigned "picnic blanket", while the school director read a story to the children. We looked over Beth's "me" book, containing pictures of her throughout the year, along with drawings and paintings she has created. She's changed quite a bit since September! The class then sang songs for us, and they all received diplomas. We headed outside for refreshments, and Beth spent some time saying good-bye to her beloved teachers and friends.

We have been so thrilled with the cozy and loving atmosphere at her school. She has grown so much more confident over the past two years, and think it's due in large part to her amazing school. So, it was emotional for Dan and I today as well, but it helped to remember that we'll be returning again in September with Amy! We have years of fun to look forward to there, although if Beth's experience is any indication, it's certain to fly by!!

Congratulations little Beth. Daddy and I are so proud of you. You're a kindergarten student now! Summer vacation, here we come!!
