Kindergarten Graduation

Morgan graduated from Kindergarten last Wednesday.

Mom was able to take the morning off from work and attend. The gym was packed with parents and family members

so I am glad I took the time off of work. This was not an impromptu ceremony. Nicole didn't "graduate" from kindergarten so I guess I didn't realize how important this was. Morgan had a great year with a wonderful teacher Mrs. DeCarlo. She learned a lot and made some special friends. Morgan's favorite parts of kindergarten were art, recess and reading. Morgan also loved attending Kinderday care on Friday afternoons while mom worked. The pictures show her getting to her seat, with her teacher, with her big sister Nicole and the last one was a surprise that Morgan had been eluding to for a while. Morgan is not the best at keeping things a secret so mom and dad were surprised. Morgan got to be in the front row and hold the "QRS" sign for the alphabet song the kids sang. She was very cute and sang all of the words. She then got to stand right in the front row where mom and dad could see her perfectly. As dad said, "it pays to be short sometimes". So on to first grade for Morgan. Morgan and Nicole will be attending a different school next year, Beck Elementary. Thankfully they will be in the same school building and this school is 5 minutes from the house, Hooray for Mom! Stay tuned for a post on our camping trip we took this past weekend.
