Our little graduate!


Well, the big event came and went! Our little Kylee is now an official graduate of Kindergarten. I have to tell you that this whole process has been a little bitter sweet for me. Kylee and I sat in her bed last night and watched old home video of her Pre-school graduation and her first day of Kindergarten. It seriously has been a whirlwind of a year and I cannot believe that it is over. She has done SO well! She is a bit nervous about 1st grade because she worries that I won't be able to survive ALL DAY without her by my side. To be honest, I don't know if I can survive! She is such a great little mother and a big helper...you don't realize how much you rely on these little ones until they are not there to run in the bedroom to get diapers as you are trying to control a tantrum throwing 18 month old! Crazy! I feel like I am sending off a missionary or something - really - it is only Kindergarten graduation! What is a mom to do? For now, I will shed a tear or two and realize that the famous quote "they grow up so fast" really rings true. We love our Kylee and are thrilled that she has done so well and will soon move on to BIGGER and BETTER things...like 1st grade! Enjoy all the pictures! Grandma Jo was in attendance which means we have lots of great pictures and a cute outfit too!

Renee thanks for bringing treats by. My neighbor answered the door, by the time she told me what happened you were gone. That was so sweet, it really means a lot. When I saw you a t Costco I couldn't believe how skinny you look, you look great! Thanks for the support

So true, everyone tells you they grow up fast, but until it's your own...you don't realize how fast it really goes!

K. You saying that just put tears in my eyes! I so don't want Gracie to go to all day school and she's still has like 3 years until 1st grade! She'll love it though so that's comforting I guess! She looks so grown-up and darling in her graduation cap!

Wow off to first grade. I hope she loves it. It was hard for me to send McKell to 1st grade, but I got used to it after a while. I am thrilled to have her back home for the summer. You have beautiful kids. Have a great summer and I hope Kylee's 1st grade experience is wonderful.
