Yesterday was A''s last day of Kindergarten (i know it went by FAST) and we celebrated by going to the park with his class having lunch and playing. It was SO hot yesterday but the kids didn't seem to notice or care. We then went back to the school and the kids sang us some songs they had been working on. I was doing fine until they did this, then i did start to cry a little. It's so weird to have a child that is on the 1st grade, and getting to be bigger and bigger, and not need me as much. Mrs. Douglas presented each kid with a diploma, and let them know how many books they had read (A had 70, the highest we heard was 80) so he did really well. He also got a cute picture from Mrs. Douglas of her and him, and a coupon for ice cream. We also got his report card which was great, he is where he needs to be academically. It seems when it comes to participating in class, or answering questions, he takes after mom and dad. In school i was not vocal at all, always afraid that even though i KNEW the right answer, i would get teased or picked on, so i just kept my mouth shut. Eric is just a shy person anyway. So it appears A has inherited these two traits from us. It's OK though, we'll work with him, and get him confident. I can not beleive in 6 short weeks he will be gone from me full time 5 days a week. I'm going to enjoy this summer vacation.
