Bursting With Pride
Don't you just love moments like this?! And you can tell that he is sooo proud of himself!
My big boy has now graduated from Kindergarten and considers himself a 1st grader. His favorite part about it...."next year I get to be at school ALL day and not have rest time at home!"
We're so proud of him! He has become so good at reading and his cursive writing is better than some highschoolers I've seen!
Emma at the head of the table, of course, at their end of the year "tea party"! Boy did I hear stories about this one from her teacher! Always the "mom" or "teacher, she had to learn to give up control! She did get the opportunity to be "teacher" for part of the day at one point this year and was upset because it wasn't for the WHOLE day:) I was also told that she was always making up a song about everything...no surprise here! Just yesterday a classmate said the word, "butt" and was told that wasn't ok, and Miss Emma proceeded to sing a little song, "you're not supposed to say butt, you're not supposed to say butt" etc. etc. And chapel days were her favorite, because she would say when she saw someone singing on stage, "someday I want to be up there singing!" Oh Emma!
Emma and her beloved Mrs. Adams.

I find myself so sad at the end of each year - as my kids complete another year of school and declare themselves that much older. All summer it has time to sink in so by September, I feel ready to embrace the next stage of their lives with them. 1st grade is a big step - gone more than they are home during the school year. Will will do great! Now the question is, will he be a prineville or Salem 1st grader? I know what I am hoping for :)...
Glad you featured all your munchkins, what a fabulous end of the year posting. Looking forward to lots of cutie summer photos too.
PS~ Nice worms
Are you maybe heading back to Salem? It sounds like your Emma and mine are very similar. I don't know if that means they would get along or not.
They are so adorable. I wish we lived closer so the cousins could enjoy playing together. Your kids are wonderful blessings, Cathy. You must be so proud. You and BIlly have done a fantastic job! Love you!!
Caley, Hannah and Heather were singing a song of their own after reading this about Emma--too cute!
