Graduation

   It is so hard to believe that Dawson graduated from preschool recently.  He is definitely more than ready for kindergarten.  Dawson has been doing preschool at his daycare for the last few years.  His daycare provider is absolutely phenomenal and I feel so blessed to have had her teach and care for Dawson over the years.  The level of care and compassion she provides is unlike anything I have ever seen before.  (She is so good, my sister and friend also bring their kids their.).
  Ms. Emily is so good at doing special things for every occasion.   She really outdid herself for their graduation.  The kids practiced their program for weeks.  When the time came for their program, I was amazed how much she did for their graduation. They even had caps and gowns. They sang us some special songs, and then they got their diplomas.  I may have shed a tear or two to see my little boy growing up and for that fact that he will no longer be at Ms. Emily's.  She ended the graduation with food and cake.  It was the perfect celebration for such a special moment in Dawson's life.
   Dawson will miss Ms. Emily's dearly, but I have no doubt that he is going to thrive and flourish in kindergarten.  He is so stinking smart and his reading ability already amazes me.  He definitely a smart one!
   I made it through his graduation, and I am already dreading the first day of kindergarten!  I am sure I will be a mess.  I am just so happy my sister will also be there dropping of Ella.  Strength in numbers right?

So glamorous

Best buds forever

All the wild ones together

We are so excited that Ella and Dawson will be going to the same elementary school. I really hope they end up in the same class.  

The amazing cake they had.  

Dawson was voted most likely to be filthy stinkin' rich.  We all got a kick out of this picture.
