My boy is now a kindergarten graduate! How did time go so fast? The whole Kindergarten consisted of five classes ranging from 23-25 kids so there were about a hundred kids that graduated from kindergarten at Christian’s school. I worked with another woman with a daughter from one of the other classes to make a kindergarten slide-show. It was so exhausting that I was very glad that the day had finally come. Looking through yearbook pictures and trying to make sure every child was included was hard work.
I love that they bought real caps and gowns for the kindergarteners this year. Last year they just had paper hats that the children made. My boy is so lucky that his school went all out.
Early that morning, Jared and I presented Christian with a candy Lei made from Werther’s Originals and the gold looked great with his blue gown (it also made it really easy to pick him out of the crowd). Personally, I think it was cute that he was front and center and had his lei on, otherwise he would have thrown off the balance of the room. I was pretty shocked that he was the only child there with any time of a lei. I guess it’s because of the high population of Polynesians in Utah, because every graduation I’ve been to has always had quite a few graduates with this special symbol.
Here are some fuzzy photos (sorry, bad lighting) of Christian waiting on the floor, and then in line to receive his certificate.
This is Christian receiving his certificate from his teacher. He looked so handsome!
This photo of Christian holding his teacher’s hand just cracks me up. He was so proud.
After the ceremony we went to his class and took some photos and picked up his report card.
Christian with his buddy, Maddox. Christian had removed his cap and gown the minute he got back to the classroom so like a picture-happy parent, I made him put them back on!
Here’s a photo of him with his amazing teacher!
One last hug for his teacher!
Christian with his sister Vivian and his friend Maya.
Love My Kindergarten Graduate!
