Preschool Graduation 2011

Em graduated from Preschool this past Wednesday-by that I mean she was promoted from little kid to BIG KID status (she still has one more year-but won't go to school at Karen's this time...she'll remain a Stepping Stones Kid). She was cute as a button! I am going to post the video of her singing the "Guys & Dolls" song from our program, it kills me!
Emee's greatest accomplishment this past year was learning to read. She LOVES to read to anyone who will listen, and sometimes when people won't (shhhhh.....we all lead busy lives), she reads to her dolls. :)

Like all the other kids, she was presented her academic portfolio which contains her assessments for the year-like alphabet letter/sound recognition, math abilities to date, name writing improvements from day 1 to the last week of school, handwriting workbook, etc. She loves to look at it & show everyone her accomplishments.

never mind the buzillion chins I have-not that they don't exist, but my husband has since learned that his camera angle was NOT a flattering one :) lol
Being turned into a "big kid" with Momma's magic wand! She was wiggling with delight in her seat-making everyone in attendance chuckle. Like I always say-it's the little things in life....

that is one happy preschooler! Excuse me-BIG KID!
watching the DVD yearbook. It was hot & muggy on Wednesday....booooo. Wearing my cap & gown didn't make it any cooler-especially with my stupid masters hood hanging from my neck. I was sweating like a sinner in church! :)
 EmmaLee's first year preschool portfolio:


 Here are some more of her school photos from this year. Can't believe how much she has grown up since last years picts! :(
(she chose to wear this because it is her favorite new Gymboree "MAMMA MIA" outfit! HA HA HA) In her defense, the line is named "Greek Isle"!










Kirsten & Auntie Shannon came to sit in the audience & support Em as her "family". She was quite excited about that. They love her to pieces. Next year Kirsten graduates high school! That is just NUTS! Congrats Em on a job well done this year! Bryce is pretty excited to be a full fledged Preschooler next year too! Lord knows he needs it.
