The Graduate



Ella is officially grown-up. She decided that about two weeks before her preschool graduation. She really did look grown-up on the stage in her cap and cat (her words, not mine!) I was pleasantly surprised! Plus, while other kids on the stage were ripping each other's caps off, she sat with her legs crossed, told other people to be quiet and told other kids to wave at their parents. She forgot to strike her pose after getting her certificate, but she went right back to her mark and smiled! It was really cute. So, next year, Madison, Ella and I will all be a the same school! I can't wait to drive to one place in the morning (and of course I will enjoy not writing the check for childcare each month!)


Before the graduation


She can always find the camera (and the light!)


Singing her heart out!


The Tiger class


Something was funny!


Getting her diploma from Mrs. Crissy


Mrs. Tricia- the Tiger teacher


Ella with Mrs. Lesa and Mrs. Crissy


Sisterly love (for the moment anyway!)


Grandma and Grandpa even came in for the big occasion!



Finally, enjoy the video of Ella "helping" her classmates and getting her diploma!
