Preschool Graduation 2010

Sarah was so prepared for graduation 2010. This is the fourth time she has been on stage for a program. The first time, she stood in the corner and cried for me until I had to come up and sit behind the crew to make her wails stop (embarrassing). The second time, she showed signs of nerves but got through. This year has been totally different. Four year old Sarah is more confident and ready for her close up. And yes, she chose to dress in what I have dubbed her "uniform for spring 2010. Even though it was warm enough for short sleeves and sandals, my girl insisted on wearing a sweater and leggings (do you think she is a bit stubborn like her mama?).

Sarah and one of her absolute favorite teachers of all time, Mrs. Brenda. She looooves music class so much. Thanks Mrs. Brenda for all you do! By the way, this is an all volunteer preschool, but I think it has as much to offer as any other preschool!

Sarah is one of three four year olds who will not be attending kindergarten next year, due to the timing of her birthday. Most of her class will be in graduation attire, but Sarah will be back for one more year at preschool.

This is Jacob, one of Sarah's "boyfriends". She has one at church (Caden), one at building blocks, (Jacob), and one at Providence (Caleb). I think she means this to be her best friends who are boys, but sometimes I can't be sure. Caden has been known to carry Sarah's Bible for her when leaving class, Jacob supposedly knocks folks down to sit next to her at lunch, and Caleb and Sarah have been seen holding hands walking down the hallway. Do I have a player on my hands or what?

Here is sweet Emma, another one of the graduates.

Mrs. Linda and Sarah. I honestly worried at the beginning of the year about how Sarah would take the change from Mrs. Lacy and Mrs. Christy's class because she was so attached, but she fell in love with Mrs. Linda and Mrs. Jane as well. What a blessing to have such loving women volunteering to help train up my youngster!

The graduating class.

Sarah and her friends are called up to join the graduates, since she was in class with them this year.

Notice the safari hat. The graduation had a safari theme. It was so cute!

Here is the threesome that have been together from the beginning. Landon is 6 weeks older than Sarah, and Avery is two months younger. They are the four year olds who will be back next year. The have known each other forever literally and are pretty close.

Sarah is getting down with the music. Priceless!

Sarah and her best buddy, Avery. These two are inseparable. The teachers have to separate them with assigned seats in class. I wonder why? LOL

Receiving completion certificates.

We are so proud of our big girl.
