Kindergarten Graduation

Oh Lily Bean, I could not have asked for a better kindergarten year for you.  I am amazed at all your little brain soaked in.     I was not prepared for the amount of tears I shed.  I believe I was in denial that you were leaving this wonderful little school.  You have a true thirst for knowledge.  When you hear a word you don’t know, you always ask me what it means.  You are a deep thinker and sometimes the depth of your questions really blows me away.  You are already reading on a first grade level.  I love hearing you at night reading in your bed.  You really enjoy science and love to perform “experiments.”Your teacher said that she learned many things from you.  She said, “I learned how to paint a lot better . I learned to do puzzles better . I learned that  a quiet child has a lot to say if you listen to them .”

It still amazes me that you are so quiet in class, because girl you are anything but quiet at home.  This is you reading why you like Kindergarten.  “I like kindergarten because I learned science. I like the field trip to the county park. I love Dave. I loved library books.”

Happy Graduation Bean
