Preschool Graduation!

On Friday evening Aurora graduated from preschool!! I can't believe it!

We had a reception at the house before her ceremony with family only. Aurora was happy to get "tons" of money ($30). She also received two chapter books from us to start reading in the evenings (one is the Wizard of Oz) and a Minnie Mouse collectors watch from Grandma and Grandpa S (I still have a similar Micky Mouse one they got me when I was her age).

The graduation theme was 'college', so she was supposed to wear a college t-shirt. We found her a shirt from UNM that was perfect!

At the ceremony, they sang several songs about Kindergarten and then they got their diplomas! Aurora was SO proud of herself. Alex was cheering for her too!

Aurora had a great night, until the end when she said good-bye to her teacher, Ms. Jennifer. She has been her teacher for 3 years, and Aurora was pretty heartbroken. Ms. Jennifer was crying too. Poor Aurora cried all the way home and until bedtime. My sweet girl!

We are so proud of you, Aurora!
