I walked into Brody's classroom on Tuesday at 9am and realized it was graduation that day at 10. I, of course, thought it was on Thursday. I looked at Brody with his hat covering his bed head and the outfit he had picked out himself and realized we were in trouble. And to make things worse, I was supposed to be at Aiden's school to watch her in her dance festival. I rushed over to Aiden's school, watched her dance, then ran home, grabbed Brody a change of clothes and a washcloth to fix that hair of his (which is in desperate need of a haircut!). We somehow made it!
His graduation was a very sad day for me. He had an amazing teacher (Miss Cindy) who is the most loving and sweet woman in the world. She has a gentle heart and the children absolutely adore her. Brody learned more this year than I ever dreamed he would (including reading!). Just ask him about the stages of a butterfly's life! I got to help every Friday in his room and loved every minute of it. I would have loved to have been in there every day. It's really got me thinking about what I want to do when all the kids are in school full time (one year from now). Being a part time preschool teacher seems right up my alley!

He's such a handsome little man.
You are SUPERMOM!
What a doll! He looks so tall in all of those pics. Is he getting taller? Or is it just your camera work? Don't you just hate when you forget things like that. Or think you know when they are and you have your day planned and then something like that happens! That is why we are supposed to be home with our kids!! When we can, of course.
He was the 2nd tallest boy in his class. He's definitely "normal" sized compared to my girls. It also helps that he's a Sept. 6 birthday and is almost a year older than some of the kids in his class.
