CLASS OF 2010

We had a BIG day at our house yesterday. Caleb graduated preschool. I can not believe how fast the year went. Not to mention I am going to have a preschooler next year. Yikes! Caleb was quite excited about his graduation. I decorated the house the night before with just a few graduation decorations. Caleb was thrilled to see them when he woke up. Tommy had found a great deal on some transformer toys so he got them and gave them to Caleb after breakfast. Caleb spent ALL day playing with them. He also spent most of the day asking if it was time to go to his graduation :). Caleb wanted to go to dinner before and picked Burger King because it had Iron Man 2 toys. We dropped Caleb off for their final practice while we took Bailey to the park to play until it started. Grandma and Papa Greene came to support Caleb and he was so excited to have them their. The graduation program was so cute. Morgan did an amazing job with it all! They marched in to Pomp, Stomp and Circumstance. It got me a little sad..lol. They then recited the Pledge of Allegience as a class and then sung Down By the Bay. Let me tell ya, this was the best part of the night. It was so cute, it ended up sounding like it was being sung in rounds and at several different speeds. Classic, I tell ya. Next was the receiving of diplomas. We then enjoyed an AWESOME slide show featuring pictures from throughout the year and interviews from the kids. Here is where we found out that Caleb wants to grow up and be......drumroll please......Optimus Prime. Yep, why be a Doctor or Firefighter when you can be Optimus Prime??? This is why I love my little guy so much!! Following the slideshow we all got to participate in a balloon release. A tradition in Miss Morgan's family that she has implemented with her own students. It is such a fun idea. For any birthday or special occassion such as graduation, you get to make a wish and then release your balloon. So that is exactly what we did. We headed outside to the field and made LOTS of wishes before watching many balloons float away. The kids thouroughly enjoyed this part. Then there was lots of eating, mingling and picture takin'. It was an AWESOME night!!! Thank you to his teacher, Miss Morgan for the most amazing preschool experience. It exceeded all of my expections! Caleb learned and developed so much and was able to participate in so many fun things throughout the year and his graduation was just icing on the cake. Miss Morgan puts her heart and soul into this preschool and we are so grateful for her! We are all going to miss her but will return in the fall of 2011 for Bailey to attend. We can hardly wait! Thanks for all you have done for Caleb and Congrats Class of 2010.
