We had a BIG day last week!
On Thursday, Miss Ashby graduated from Pre-K.
We are just so, so, so proud of her! She thrived this year at school! I was a little worried going into Pre-K that she wouldn’t be ready for kinder in the fall, but not any more. She did FANTASTIC this school year!!
Our day started off extra special because before the graduation ceremony, it was Pastries with Parents in this little nugget’s class…
…she put on an apron (with her hand print!) and served us breakfast.
I love this kid so much too!!
She served me breakfast…and then ate it 😉 .
Then it was time for graduation! Ashby was so sweet when she walked in and saw us.
Here she is receiving her diploma with her sweet teachers.
They did a slide presentation…I mean, friends! Look how much my sweet baby has grown!! The picture on the right was taken about 10 days after we brought her home from China 🙂 .
After graduation, we had cookies and punch in their classroom. I love sweet Bowen so much too!
Britt’s smile is my favorite!
We are just so proud of this girl!!!
After their class party, Erika and I surprised the kids and took them out of school for the rest of the day so that they could have lunch and swim…
…they were so excited to swim without the big kids! Ha! We had the best afternoon by the pool!!!
It was the BEST little graduation day!!

Umm…can I have Madeley’s tan please? Girlfriend has a gorgeous color!!
Karen Ward says
^^^^YASS!!!!!!
Tabitha says
Congratulations sweet Ashby! Great job!
I don’t know about the rest of ya’ll, but referring to Madeley’s “tan” makes me uncomfortable. Maybe I’m just too sensitive, but God created her with a certain complexion that she can’t control and has to live with. She’s as cute as a button, but I don’t think we should identify her simply by her skin tone.
