Preschool Graduation

Shayla graduated from Kiddie Kollege.  She had a cute little graduation program last night.  Her part in the program was to spell her name and the nursery rhyme "Mary had a little lamb".  She was a little nervous when we first got there because there was a lot of people.  She did such a great job though.  She sang all of the songs and did the actions and did her part just great.  I don't know why but I get nervous for my kids before they have to perform.  I had just as many butterflies in my stomach as she did.  She had such a fun year in preschool and met lots of friends.  Her first friend other than Parker who is her cousin was Quintin.  Then she branched out a little more and started to play with a group of girls Zoee, Chloe and Hanna.  She loved her teacher, Mrs. Cambria.  She has grown up so much over the past year.  I love being her mom and I am so greatful for the time I have to teach her and just be with her.

Carter loved watching the preschool program and joined in with singing and actions.  He was so excited for Shayla and kept yelling her name and waving at her throughout the program.  At the end of the program there teacher called there names to give them there little diplomas and when Shay's name was called Parker says "That's my Shayla".  It was very cute.

After the graduation we took Shayla to "Build a Bear" where she got to make any stuffed animal she wanted.  She has been earning money to go there and we decided to put up the rest of the money and let her do that for preschool graduation.  She had the best time of her life.  She picked a unicorn and named it Sara.  She also picked a balerina outfit for her unicorn to wear.  Carter really wanted a pig but Daddy said "no".  She got to put a heart on the unicorn. Then she picked a star and had to close her eyes and make a wish.  She put the star inside the unicorn before closing it up.  It was a fun night and I am sad her preschool class is over.
