Beck's Preschool Graduation



I still have to chuckle to myself a little when I go to events like a preschool graduation...I didn't get any kind of graduation until I was a senior in High School (and it ended up getting rained out!).  Boy, have things changed.  I'm not complaining, it's just funny to me.  Beck's graduation was a big program full of singing, dancing, acting like a dinosaur (Beck was an ankylosaurus), and then a special moment when Miss Lindsey talks about each child.  They've been practicing for a while and were so, so cute for the big performance.  I ended up video recording almost the whole thing because Asher ended up getting sick and so Corey stayed home with him and I didn't want him to miss a thing!  I clapped and cheered on my preschool grad, proud and happy.  What a fun night.

When it was Beckett's turn to be recognized, Beck stood there the whole time, very seriously listening to what she would say.  She talked all about how Beckett was such a good listener and learner and that he always knew all the answers to questions they'd ask.  It sounds like sometimes they had to pass on him to be sure the other kids had a chance to answer, hehe.  I must admit that the details about our body systems (talking about the esophagus, stomach and intestines), volcanoes, dinosaurs and the solar system ("when 'astronoids' hit the atmosphere they speed up", etc) were pretty impressive.  He gets the details and has a great memory. It was always fun and interesting to hear about what he'd learned at preschool.  Little smarty pants. It's been a great year for him and I can't believe how fast it went.  I sure do love this preschooler...now he'll be on to Kindergarten (sigh).
