Kindy Celebration


The countdown has ended! The last day of Kindergarten has arrived and the fun has only begun. We have witnessed what was once a shy yet brave little girl blossom into a fantastic reader, creative writer, a faithful friend and great student who loves school.  



The journey through "Kindy-land" has been "sweet!" From crazy hair day to Cayman's favorite...pajama day, we have had a year full of great experiences. It has been rewarding to see her so engaged in school and participate in the classroom.  



A note from Mrs. Gallagher: 
 " You are  a very special person and Cayman you should know how I loved to be your teacher how fast the year did go. Please come back to visit me and through the grades you grow, try hard to learn all that you can, there is so much to know. The one thing I tried to teach you, to last your whole life through, is to know that you are special just because Cayman, you are you!




 Congratulations to you Cayman for your hard work and acceleration!


So the time has come now to exit the halls
of a school where children can stand proud and tall.
Great teachers who fill their with lives with lessons
of trust, dedication and solid education.
Thank you for the Kindy Celebration!


Always on your side,
       mom

Swimming Party Splashdown


 Celebrating our friend Kinlee's 6th Birthday at Kingfisher
Aquatic Center. Fantastic Fun!


The only time this boy was still!


Clairen's first time in a swimming pool and absolutely loved it!
She kicked, splashed, squealed and lasted as long as the big kids!
She's a water baby and in the right family!


You can see she has her own built in water floaties! 


Too adorable for words! 


I was lucky to get a group picture because the kids wouldn't slow
down enough for any photo shoot today!

Green Eggs and Ham?

Cohen asked for green eggs and ham for breakfast. I thought, " Why not?"
They were quite a success, but this comes from a boy who will eat anything! 


Oh so appetizing!



And......



He likes it; He likes it! 
 Dr. Seuss would be proud!

" Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You."
