The final day was a graduation ceremony (even though she'll be attending pre-k) most of the kids are headed off to kindergarten next year. The kids had graduate caps and marched in to Pomp and Circumstance. It was really adorable. Every child was called up to receive their diploma and a handshake from Miss Cindy.
After the graduation we went inside to watch the presentations the children had prepared. They sang three songs, You Are My Sunshine, The Rainbow Song (referenced in the mother's day post) and one other one...hmmm can't remember right now. Then Miss Cindy presented each child with their binder of work for the year and announced what each child wanted to be when they grow up. Apparently Luli wants to be a gardener, perhaps she can work on that now my yard needs it! It was a really special morning and we were all sad to say good bye to the school year.
Before school Luli and Fiona posed for graduation pictures. Luli got "special" braids for the big day and picked out several clips to adorn them with. I can hardly believe this school year is over. Luli had a great year with Miss Cindy #1 and Miss Cindy #2. There were a few ups and downs but I think Luli is the greater for all of it. Let's just say I didn't expect girl cattiness and bullying to start so early. My hope is that the experience gives Luli a bit thicker skin and the ability to deal with these happenings in a healthy manner as she grows. On a much more positive note Luli learned so much this year and has blossomed. From the beginning she insisted on being called her full name, Lourdes, so all the kids know her as Lourdes and I had to constantly remind myself to call her Lourdes when speaking with the moms.
