Where does the time go??? Friday morning, Jack "graduated" from preschool! Jason had a knee doctor appointment that he was unable to reschedule, so he took Ethan (I didn't want to have to deal with both him and Wyatt if I didn't have too, plus it's good for him to get one-on-one Daddy time).This is Jack entering his school (it's part of a very large Baptist church) and I was so focused on getting a good shot of the church behind him that I didn't notice that his zipper is coming down or that his shirt is coming up! Good job Mommy.
Wyatt and I dropped him off in his classroom and then found a seat in the sanctuary. Wyatt did really well and even enjoyed sitting on the seat next to me for a bit. There was a lot of watch, so I'm sure that helped.
I always thought graduations from anything but high school or college was silly and a waste of time, but as soon as they started playing the music and the kids came in with their graduation caps, the tears started forming and I had to work hard the ENTIRE time to keep from bawling like a baby! It's so hard to see your kids grow up, even though you really want them too.
All the kids sang together and then each class had their own song. I love how Jack stood there singing with his hands in his pockets!!
Then we headed back to his classroom to get him before heading upstairs for cake and punch. Here he got his graduation certificate and his own bible. And after each kid got theirs, they all said the same thing, "can I take my hat off? The pins are hurting my head!"
Jack had such a great time going to school here and he met his best friend Bryce in class last year! We are hoping to get them into the same sport for the fall so that they don't go into shock not being in class together anymore!
Jack had really fantastic teachers this year, Ms. Sharron (above) and Ms. Barbara. And while I'm so glad that I won't have to drive Jack to school anymore, I sure am going to miss this. But I guess Wyatt will end up here in a couple more years and we'll get to do it all over again. I feel more tears welling up!
