Last night H "graduated" from kindergarten. They had a Hawaiian theme. All the kids tie-dyed shirts and wore leis. They sang a few songs and then we watched a video slide show of pictures from throughout the year. Then was the moment we'd been waiting for...she received her certificate and a gift (the tile where her hand print has been turned into a pineapple).
H has had quite a year. She started kindergarten with a wonderful teacher whom she just loved. She also loved riding the bus. Three months into the school year we moved to a new school with a new teacher and no bus. She enjoyed her class and made friends (and boyfriends!) quickly. Around December we found out that her teacher was moving and when H went back after winter vacation she had another new teacher.
She loves her new teacher and has really thrived despite all the upheaval. She is reading and doing basic math. She loves to learn. I think the only thing that could make this school year better would be if there was a bus for her to ride.
She is so cute! Congrats H!
ReplyDeleteYay Hailey-- congrats!! You made it through your first year of school :)
ReplyDeleteP.S. I like her hair like that.
ReplyDeleteYay for H! She certainly is a trooper to have done so well throughout a year with so much change.
