Hayley and I were able to attend Courtney's preschool graduation yesterday. Her last day of preschool -- and we're on to Kindergarten! I think it's kind of funny how they make such a big deal out of "graduation" for these kids with the whole cap & tassle and pomp & circumstance and such. But it's a fun and exciting time for them.
Courtney's preschool is held at a local Methodist church and they had their graduation in the chapel. Here she is walking in:
And sitting with her class before the ceremony started:
Her class sang a couple of songs for the parents. I was thinking I maybe should have dressed her in a little nicer clothes for the big day, seeing as how most of the other girls are wearing dresses. :-) But she did pick out her outfit that day, so she was happy about it. For some reason, she had it in her head that blue was a graduation color so she had to wear all blue clothes.
They had asked all the kids what they wanted to be when they grow up and announced it when they called their name for their diploma. Courtney said she wanted to be a ballerina. Here she is with both of her teachers, Miss Jennifer (on the left) and Miss Lisa (on the right).
After the ceremony there was cake and punch in the classroom.
Then she was done! She had a good year in preschool, despite her period of crying about not wanting to go in the morning. Kindergarten, here we come!
