Preschool Graduation

I actually have some things to blog about but for now this will be a preschool graduation post only!

 Tonight was the big night! Generation Next does a great job with this 'milestone'! All 3 centers teach their kids songs to sing, tell them exactly what to do, they had pictures taken last week, they encourage all family members to come, they get robes and caps! THE CUTEST THING EVER!

We were nervous about her, whether she would be willing to participate, if she would fight us in getting the robe on....but the teachers all take care of the students, the parents have nothing to do with it...so we knew that would work in our favor!

 

Nervous look, walking down the aisle to the stage

I couldn't fit all the kids in...there were almost 200 of them (and the 'ceremony' only lasted 1 hour!)

She even gave me a smile!

Singing! (she was happy she was able to stand next to her friend Allie!)

 

Walking across stage to get her 'diploma'..so nervous!

 

I think she was  little overwhelmed with everything when it was all over. All the people there, very crowded, so this was the best picture I could get with her. (Thanks for Grandma, Grandpa, Holly, Sam, Scott and Boston for coming too!)

Lily, Presley and Allie (she was willing to smile with them!)

Grandma and Grandpa brought her a flower!

 

In the mean time, Piper was overall pretty good. Holly ended up taking her into the hallway right before it was over but she did pretty good for having to sit still for an hour. However, when everyone was in the process of leaving and people were EVERYWHERE.....she was not afraid to run in and out of all the people and even gave a random little boy a hug. Then she ran right in front of a lady with a stroller and she just pushed the stroller out of her way!

I'm pretty sure most people around us were thinking that we had no control of this child...and they are right! HA!

Presley participated and followed direction and listened during the whole thing! I know it is only preschool graduation but we are still really proud of her! (and thankful that she is better behaved at school than she is at home!)
