Rock Star

He did it! Wednesday was Thomas' last day of Pre-K 3 . There was much anticipation leading up to the ceremony, and Thomas loved being on stage singing and dancing with his friends. When the time came for the diplomas to be handed out, Thomas got overcome with emotion and had a pretty bad meltdown, just off the side of the stage. Mama, Kaitlin and the two teacher's aides talked him down long enough to be able take the walk across the stage and receive his diploma, to thunderous applause. Afterwards, we partied in the cafeteria with the class, and everyone's family and friends. It was a bittersweet day, yet Mama breathed a huge sigh of relief that we got through the school year. Thomas is shown here with his teacher, far right, and her two aides. Thank you, ladies! We love you!

Not wanting to put off getting back into a routine, Thomas started his Summer schedule at KinderCare the day after graduation. He's already making new friends and has enjoyed his first two days. When the teacher introduced him to the class, he greeted everyone by saying "Hello boys and girls. Nice to meet you." That kid ... he's something else!!!!
Matthew will be graduating Kindergarten next Tuesday. He will be joining Thomas at KinderCare, where they have a summer camp for bigger kids. In the meantime, when he's not at school, he's either playing baseball, or talking about it.
