Preschool Graduation

This week Kimball graduated from preschool.  It was an exciting day for us, especially Kimball.  Preschool ended May 17, 2013 and Kimball surprisingly didn't seem too sad about the end of preschool until graduation day.  After graduation day he said he would miss school.  I know Kimball will miss having the social interaction 3 days a week, but he is much better suited for Kindergarten.

 The graduation program was nice but a little long.  The teachers did do a good job making each child feel special and recognized.  The kids sang about 10 songs and then were all acknowledged.  There was a slideshow to finish up the program.   Kimball also received a very nice certificate and a 5x7 graduation photo.   I tried to talk Kimball into wearing a short sleeved shirt since it was a warm day and the gym wasn't air conditioned, but he didn't want to.

Singing songs for the audience.  Kimball actually did little singing.
I think he felt shy in front of so many strangers.

Smiling for us.  We lucked out in our seating. We just happened to sit on the same side
that Kimball was sitting since seating for him and us was random.

is in the top left corner as you look at the picture.

There were 7 kids from church that all went to this preschool so we went to a graduation party for the kids after the program.  The kids had a great time running around and eating lunch.  I didn't get any pictures, but the kids had a fun time.
