My Big Girl: The Graduate

2482377926 85f11847c4 m My Big Girl:  The GraduateWe had an exciting end of the week. On Thursday, Madison graduated from preschool! They came in and said the Pledge of Allegiance and then sang God Bless America. They also sand the Graduation Song, Hokey Pokey, Itsy Bitsy Spider, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Rainbow Song, Bend and Stretch, Do Your Ears Hang Low?, Teddy Bear, The Turtle Song, He’s Got The Whole World In His Hands, and It’s a Small World. Yes, they really did sing that many songs. Granted, they all didn’t start and stop at the same time, but it was the effort that counted. It was super cute.

The teachers also kept a folder of all their work, so we could see how they progressed through the school year. We also got some photos that they had taken throughout the year too. Mommy and Daddy were extremely proud of her and picked her up a couple of things:

Madison Update

This is probably only exciting to me, but Madison can write her own name without me spelling it for her! Obviously, this is something they have been working on at preschool, but I had no idea she could do it. We were working on some birthday cards and I told her to write her name. Normally, I have to spell it for her and help her with the letters she can’t remember how to make. She did it all by herself! I am super proud of her!

The other kind of cool thing that she did tonight was name her rock. I know that sounds funny, but she refuses to name anything. However, she painted a rock at school today to look like a turtle. Before she went to bed she told me his name was Tommy the Turtle. She also asked to sleep with it. Madison right now is sleeping with a rock in her bed. icon smile Madison Update
