The family all dressed up and ready to go.
- Elijah with his diploma
As hard as it is for me to believe, Elijah graduated from Kindergarten last week. The school had a very nice ceremony and tea to celebrate. Grandma Nell, Grandma Betty, Grandma Tracy, Dad, Mom, Josiah and Lily all came to the ceremony, and most of us cried at some point. The ceremony started with the kids coming in to Pomp and Circumstance. That song always makes me tear up. Mrs. Ames had the kids recite their “blends” that they had learned through the year; they sang a song; they did some spanish and various other things they had learned throughout the year. Then Mrs. Ames announced each student and what they wanted to be. On the big screens was the picture the student had drawn about their hopeful vocation. Elijah wanted to be a basketball player. Finally, each student was called, and they received their diploma. It was so nice. Calvary did such a nice job. I am so proud of Elijah.
