Her graduation had a beach theme and all the kiddos (with the exception of one who apparently didn't get the memo) wore their swimwear and sang lots of songs to wrap up the school year before starting the graduation ceremony. During the intermission there was a video presentation set to music of all the kids throughout the year and it was so touching. My, oh my, have they changed and grown. Each family was given a DVD of the presentation so as soon as I am done here I am going to watch it again cos I am a glutton for punishment and with all this crying I won't be able to open my eyes in the morning.
Only one child out of 18 lost their hat this evening which is pretty amazing and guess who that one child was? Yes, you are indeed correct it was Lily. It slid off of her silky smooth hair and refused to stay on again after that.
Lily truly has had the most incredible teacher for this school year and as far as we are concerned this lady has truly raised the bar. To her we say thank you and also to her aide who is also a wonderful, fabulous teacher.
So without further ado, I introduce to you the latest graduate of Pre-K.

Jacob and I were at opposite ends of the patio so he has the better shots of this on his camera but I have not got the foggiest clue how to get them from there to here!

That should have read sang instead of sand..oops
You will always remember this day. I still remember Justin's and he is 22. In fact I saw his Pre School Director in the mall the other day and we sand the Tanglewood Academy school song together..ROFL. I am not sure if she was more shocked that I remebered it or that we now have a 2 year old :)
Lily looks quite grown up. Please give her a big smooch from us.
I am soooo proud of Lily, please let her know that!! What a great accomplishment, and we all look forward to watching her grow into the wonderful young woman we know she will be!!!
Awwww....you're right. They are "flippin' cute!"
So adorable! I love the singing!! Congratulations to Lily!!

I love the song. Very clever teacher she had.
How sweet! I love that we can see their suits through the gowns!! Hee hee!
Wow, happy graduation Lily. Great photos, but where's Lily's arm in the last one? I know I'd give my right arm to finish school, but surely she didn't give her left???
Too precious! That song is priceless!
Congratulations Lily! Those videos were too cute!
