my first born

I want to document everything I can remember about yesterday! Levi graduated from preschool. Oh my stars...it was such a special day! I was kind of preparing myself that there would be tears, but I did really well! Only cried when they "marched" in and during the first song! ;)

As we walked into the classroom, Mrs. Vicki had a picture of their first day of preschool next to a picture of them the last week. It was amazing to see the difference!

The party table complete with a cake, punch and goldfish! ;)

The cake had each child's name on it...

...and each bobble head graduate had a picture inside. This is Levi's. :) Too cute!

Here are all the graduates!!! Look how cute!

Levi

First time seeing him in his cap and gown. He looks sooo grown up!! {tear...} They marched in to a song called "Let Them Be Little". Priceless.



Ok, now this got to me! They sang "Growing and Changing", a song about how they are doing so many fun things in their life right now and how we need to treasure each moment. Talk about getting right into a Momma's heart!!!


"ABC's" with bells - All the kids paid attention so well!!!

They sang several more songs including one called "It's Almost Time for Kindergarten". So sweet!

There were several people there to help us celebrate! Levi and his Mamaw and Grammy

Papa Bobby

Mommy & Daddy



When it was time to receive his diploma, Levi couldn't stop smiling! I love Mrs. Vicki!! She is so positive and always encourages the kids in such a sweet and kind way.



The proud graduate!!!!!

Now, I want to point out the binders that held their diplomas. Mrs. Vicki put these together for each student. It held a workbook that the kids worked on all year long and some other fun things that they did throughout the year! First was a picture from the first and last day.

It also held a monthly hand print. Each month, they made a picture and somewhere in the picture was their hand. :) So sweet!





I love this little boy! Mrs. Vicki told me so many special things about him yesterday before we left. It made me cry to see how he has grown over the year. She said he is so respectful of each and every adult and he is helpful to all of his friends in class. She said he is a natural leader and cares about others. She said he is very smart and it was a joy to have him in class.

Thank you, Mrs. Vicki for making this Momma's day so special! It is hard to leave your child in someone else's hands, but this year, we were so blessed to have Mrs. Vicki teaching Levi!

What a special little ceremony and what a great teacher to put all the little details into making it so special. I love that binder with the monthly handprints. That is the sweetest. You are a very blessed momma! :)
