"Goodbye Kindergarten...we're Moving on to 1st Grade!"

Yes, it's true all wonderful things must come to an end.  We officially have a 1st grader on our hands.  How that happened, I am not exactly sure but like it or not our sweet Ava girl is a first grader.  What a wonderful experience, what a wonderful school, and what a wonderful year our sweet girl had.  We couldn't have asked for a better place to send our sweet girl every day.

Our sweet girl is an amazing reader, has memorized dozens of bible verses, knows spanish (can even sing Jesus Love Me in Spanish), is doing great learning math, has made wonderful friends and I could go on forever!

Tonight we celebrated with the kindergarten teachers, and all 30 of the kindergarten student's families at graduation. They had the sweetest program and perfect send off to a great year.

They had all of the children's silhouettes hanging on the wall.

 Sweet girl had a speaking part.  She recited John 3:16

 With her amazing teacher Mrs. Howell.  Once of the kindest, sweetest ladies you will ever meet.

 Granny and Pop celebrated with us.

 Papa, Mimi and Gigi came too!

 So proud of her!

 Ava with her sweet friend Anna.

 No words....I guess he is proud of her too!

 4 generations!  You don't find that very often!

 Clearly he was non to pleased that he couldn't go with his Papa.

 Last day of school!!!  I think Bennett is most excited as that means his sissy will be home to play all summer.

 Ava received the "Creative Bee" award!  Mrs. Howell loved reading her journals, and says she has the most creative artwork around, and also loves all of Ava's creative ideas.

What a happy happy year, and we look forward to an equally amazing time in 1st Grade!
