The end of the school year

Right before school got out the kids had awards presentations.  Brian got awards for completing kindergarten, having outstanding citizenship, completing the kindergarten level of PE, Art and Music, and then his teacher gave him the special award of being the Merry Music Maker.  He learned ALL the songs they had practiced all year and is an exuberant singer!

You can only barely see Brian’s head at the back of the class.

Brian LOVED his teacher Miss Jones.

My little guy is growing up!

Aaron had end of the year awards presentation too, however, he was sick that day and was unable to go to school.  He still got his awards, but we obviously don’t have any pictures of it.  Aaron received awards for building the strongest bridge in his gifted class, being a student ambassador, having outstanding citizenship, getting straight A’s all year and then his teachers gave him the special award of being a Bookworm because he is always reading.

Now here are some before and after shots.  This is what they looked like on the first day of school

and now this is what they looked like on the last day of school.

They’ve grown up so much in so many different ways.  They loved their teachers, loved school this year and both did very well.  I am so proud of all they’ve accomplished and I’m loving having them home this summer.

How smart to do a beginning and ending picture. They are definitely growing up!
