Kindergarten Graduation




One year down, twelve to go! June 4th was Brooklyn's last day of kindergarten. A graduation ceremony for the kindergarteners and sixth graders followed in the evening. It was a long, long, LONG ceremony, and I was amazed at how well 50 kindergarteners sat for it. For me, the most amazing moment was when all 50 kids recited Psalm 23 in unison. Brooklyn had surprised me a few days earlier by reciting it herself. Their brains are like sponges at this age! We really struggled with school earlier in the year. Brooklyn didn't like it, insisted she was stupid, and was sure she would never be able to read. How time has changed! She loves her school, friends, and decided reading was fun! Now, we're looking forward to a busy summer of vacations, camps, lessons, and just having fun!
