It seems like only yesterday that I was writing this post about my baby girl starting Kindergarten.  Tuesday night, she had her end-of-Kindergarten program.  Please excuse me while I go sob in the corner…..

First day:

And now:

Instead of a graduation program, the students all sang songs to go along with each month of the year. They sang one “month” song and then performed a song or poem about something they learned that month.   (Sorry for the video quality—gym lighting isn’t conducive to good photos or videos!)

After the songs, each student was called up to receive their Certificate of Completion for Kindergarten.  (Can I just take a second and say how grateful I am for Mrs. Johnson?  Not only is she MY best friend, but she is the absolute BEST Kindergarten teacher in the entire world, hands down.)

And the ending chant, which I think is my favorite.

After the program, we all went back to Libby’s class.  Mrs Johnson made each student a scrapbook of their Kindergarten year–complete with pictures, artwork, and handwriting samples each month.  I knew this gift was coming, but it still made cry looking over the ‘snapshot’ of the last year.

If one of you could discover some ground-breaking, Time Slowing mechanism, I’d pay top dollar for that!  ðŸ™‚
