Preschool Graduation

Although I posted earlier, I forgot to blog pictures from Elizabeth's preschool graduation. After a cute ceremony, we ate paper bag lunches and flew home-made kites (plastic bags with yarn which I highly recommend, the kids had a blast!)

Elizabeth has learned so much this year from her teachers and classmates! Every day she came home with some amazing story, song, or new word (such as metamorphosis!).

Each day before lunch, one child uses a puppet to tell the other children what they will be eating. Elizabeth's teacher, Ms Julie (below) shared stories with us of Elizabeth's extravagant and elaborate puppet voices and stories. (Hmmm, maybe a little like her father...!)

Mr. B and Ms. Julie were amazing with the kids and Elizabeth loves them both so much. Often, she would thank God for them in her bedtime prayers!

According to Elizabeth at age 3: she wants to be a pilot when she grows up, her favorite food is french fries, and favorite color is of course pink! Oh, and she is going to become a mom at her next birthday so she can do things only moms can (do you think I use this one too much??).

Much to the Ms. Julie's surprise (but not ours...), Elizabeth dislikes finger painting because she doesn't like to get dirty. According to Ms Julie, shaving cream day was hilarious because Elizabeth hardly used the tip of her finger to write her letters.

In both pictures above, Elizabeth is next to her best friend Rebecca (according to Elizabeth, she has four best friends: Rebecca, Kayle (her soon to be cousin), Conner (Carrie's son), and Toby(Courtney's son)). Elizabeth and Rebecca often made plans for play dates without me knowing. I was randomly informed we were meeting Rebecca at the pool, park, and even to Rebecca's grandma's house for an Easter egg hunt!

Oh my sweet and adorable Elizabeth, we are proud of you!
