Good Judgment

Kate's school has a program that focuses on certain "Character Traits" or appropriate behaviors for all students. Each quarter, the students and teachers select a classmate that displays the Character Trait that month. Kate was selected and awarded the "Good Judgment" trait.

Lauren and I had the privilege of attending the Character Traits breakfast honoring the selected students just before school was out. Kate received her certificate and pencil while enjoying all of the breakfast treats.

We're proud of you Kate! Keep up the good work!

The Graduate

It's hard to believe, but we are officially done with preschool in our household. Lauren graduated from the four-year-old class the end of May and now has her sights set on Kindergarten. She'll begin the same day as Kate...July 9th!

We were very proud of Lauren as she accepted her diploma from her teachers, following the entire 4-year-old classes performance. We were fortunate to have several of the grandparents and a couple of cousins at the ceremony.

Displayed on the outer walls of the building were the graduates' Self-Portraits, one completed in September at the beginning of the year and one in May.

We finished the event with a trip to Chick Fil-A for lunch and to celebrate. Here are some highlights from the day.
