Leah has LOVED going to school with Ms Janae. She has made a few friends and can't wait to start Kindergarten in August. Ms Janae has been so sweet and lots of fun!
For their end of the year program/graduation, they said the Pledge of Allegiance, sang patriotic songs, showed off their Zoophonics, and ate popsicles.
Leah got a certificate and gave Ms Janae a big hug! She's growing up too fast!
Dillan has been dropping hints about his end of the year program. He mentioned how the teachers wanted him to sing a solo because he had a good voice and named the boy in his class who WANTED to wear a tutu and be a dancing flower. Both of which he was NOT interested.
The theme for the first grade program was "How does your garden grow?" Referring to the little first graders as seedlings who have sprouted and grown so much during the year. Dillan warned me that one of the songs would make me cry and I should bring a tissue. He was right.
There was singing and dancing and my little farmer did a bang-up job!
He has grown so much this year, physically and academically.
He was in the top reading group (the Jumping Dolphins) the whole year, discovered a great love for math and science and has become an awesome writer. (He wrote a great story about ninjas that has been misplaced somewhere, but we HOPEFULLY will find it!)
He THA-RASHED 4 pairs of shoes this year, played on basketball and baseball teams for the first time, made lots of new friends, and is still the same sweet, tenderhearted kid he's always been!
So proud of these two and looking forward to a crazy fun-filled summer!!!

Your kids are so grown up. I love seeing them. And 4 pairs of shoes? That is beyond crazy. I cannot even imagine that! He must be quite the adventurer.
I remember that you had like a little "home preschool" with Leah a while back. How did that work? And did you use any specific curriculum or did you just picks random things to learn? I am trying to decide if I want to put Evi in School in the fall or just do something ourselves.
I keep telling my husband that we need to go Southern Cal and meet up with you at Sea World some time. I think I am slowly wearing him down. :)
