Preston's TK Graduation


I can't believe this day is finally here . . . it seems like Preston just started TK . . . or for that matter preschool at all.  And now, here we are with only one day of preschool left.  This morning was such a special time to share with his sweet class. Preston was chosen as the one student that had a speaking part at graduation.  He was able to say the welcome prayer!  Miss Melissa gave me a heads-up yesterday in case I wanted to work with him, but when I tried to, he just said "it's going to be a surprise, mama."  His prayer was so sweet and special, one I'll never forget.  Miss Melissa says that he's destined to be a pastor or someone who is always thinking of others because he has such a big heart. :)  I totally agree!

Miss Melissa, Miss Mimi, and Miss Libby all worked so hard and truly made this a special morning.  The teachers came up with a different candy award for each student and Preston received the Dove award.

Proudly receiving his "Dove" award for being the peacemaker in the class
 The class sang songs, recited the pledges, said all 66 books of the Bible in order and lots of other special things too before receiving their TK diploma and enjoying a fun, delicious reception!

Receiving his TK diploma!

 Words can't adequately express how grateful I am for this year of transitional kindergarten.  Preston has grown not only academically, but spiritually and socially too.  It was a true gift to have this time before heading off to big school.  And his teachers . . yeah, they were the best around; truly gifted in teaching and loving TKers.  Tomorrow will be a sad day as we wrap up our 9 years at WEE school, but I'm thankful to remember that he's well prepared for next year in every single way.
