Congrats Grad!


On Tuesday night we celebrated Tyler's kindergarten graduation! The school did a nice program where the kids showed off several things they'd learned throughout the year: Bible passages, poems, reading, songs, etc.

Tyler won Certificates of Achievement in Bible, Phonics, Handwriting, and Reading. And, she was chosen by her classmates as the Class Favorite!

Afterwards we had a reception in the school's cafeteria. Tyler ran around with her friends and took pictures, ate cake and showed us some of school work.

As a gift from us and my parents, I took her the next morning to "Wacky Bear" (it's like Build a Bear) and she made a bunny she's named "Fluffy".


We are so proud of all she's accomplished this year. It was a hard start with tears in the morning when dropping her off but she really finished strong and can't wait to move on to First Grade. To help her in first grade, Nona and Pop-pops bought Tyler her own desk for graduation. She picked it out and it's a perfect fit in her room!



Here is video of the ceremony for anyone interested:

Yay, Tyler! You look so grown up in your cap and gown! I'm very proud of your effort this year. It's not easy moving to a new place and getting used to so many new things. But with God's help you did it! See you at the beach in a couple of weeks!
