Graduation Time.....

Thurs night was preschool graduation night. It was cute and the kids got to see and play with all their friends together one last time.

We were also given an observation book for the year. During class parents would write down what they saw going on, then they would be filed away. I read through a lot of them throughout the year, but it was fun to read through them again tonight.

He built a lot of boats over the year with the big wooden blocks and loved to play with the marble coaster. Another note that made me laugh said that he was building a space ship out of legos and a leg fell off, he says, "That sucks!" (Gotta watch my mouth!)

At one point he when asked what he was doing at the computer keyboard he said "I'm checking my email."

Then there were the bikes and the trail outside, a favorite activity.

One note said: "The boys were riding bikes, then parked for a bit. Cody then said,"C'mon guys lets get movin! Lead the way, Ben!""

But my most favorite thing from the year revolves around the blue dress. It starts with Cody wanting to play dress up with his friends, one girl asking him to dance. Then a note states that he has added Mary Jane to his ensemble. And finally when he's done, he took off his dress and said, "I'm not a princess anymore!"

The best part of reading the book was that he was always helpful, polite and nice to the other kids. Always good to know that you are doing something right when it comes to your kids!

He had a great year and I know that he will love getting to go an extra day next year.
