Pictured- S's First Day of Three year old Preschool:
What an exciting year we had! At the beginning of school, S was unsure of what this preschool thing was all about. He did not want to do carpool, wanted to be walked in- excuse me, carried in and dropped off! He would cry and not want me to leave. By the end of the year, we were doing carpool everyday with an "Mom, I love you - you are beautiful" as he jumped out of the car. Of course, I was yelling as he ran in the building, "S, I love you too, you are handsome!" The teachers and all the other moms would die each and every time he said this! It is too precious! He had a great year at school: he learned all of his letters, numbers and even can count to 30 on his own. He is learning Spanish, computers and loves to take music. He loves his friends and he adores his teachers! He loved earning his honeypots- 3 honeypots= treat!!!! He loved bringing home his folder each week in hopes of getting a star at karate for his good behavior!
We have watched him grow up to be this energetic, fun-loving, high energy 4 year old. He is hilarious and fun! We enjoy his enthusiasm for everything, but have a hard time keeping up with him! He brings us so much joy and we cannot wait to see what he will bring to the table each and every day! This is going to be a summer to remember! Off to K-4 in the Fall!
WOW! What a year first grade has been! B just blossomed into this young, independent little man. Of course, I still made him kiss me every single day before I would let him get out of the car at carpool. This year, B became in incredible reader. He finished 1st grade on a 4.5 level- that is amazing for a 7 year old! He loves his teacher (and so did we), his friends and his life. He is a first grader, a cub scout, a piano player, a musician, a singer, a baseball player, a soccer player, a yellow belt in karate, a tennis player, a swimmer, a friend, an animal lover, a tender hearted- loving little boy, a dreamer, a tooth looser, an award winner and a terrific young man! It has been out pleasure to watch him grow up this year! We are so proud of him and all that his has accomplished. I think we are most proud of his tender heart and the love that he has for everyone around him. I sure cannot wait to see what gift of his he will bestow on this world. It is going to be amazing. Sometimes you just know that someone is really going to do something special with their lives and each day I am reminded that my B will be doing great things!
We have enjoyed watching him be tender hearted, loving and kind to everyone! We love to watch him contemplate something new and once he decides to try it and succeeds- We love to see that smile! He truly has pure joy in his heart when he proves to himself that he CAN do anything he wants! Priceless
