KINDERGARTEN GRADUATION

Aiden and Mrs. Free... he told us earlier that week that he was going to stay in Kindergarten with her... he was serious!
Papa Rich, Yvette and Aiden
I was holding our place in line and had time to take a quick picture

The morning of Kindergarten Graduation was a difficult one for Jeramie and I. We do realize that it's "just Kindergarten" as so many people have pointed out. We know that there will be 8th grade graduation and High School graduation and College graduation, etc, but when Aiden put on that cap and gown we both knew that a huge year of milestones was ending that morning. We would never again be sending a child to Kindergarten and that made us sad.... not sad enough to have another child, but definitely sad. The morning consisted of the children marching in to "Pomp and Circumstance" and performing a little show called the ABC's of Kindergarten. Aiden's part was, "Q is for questions, we asked them everyday, our teachers always wondered what we would say." They sang songs and recited memory verses and had their audience laughing and crying. What? You want to watch the performance? Well, we just happen to have the entire day on video. Come on over!
