Today was Derek's last day of school. I can't believe how fast this year went by. It seems like yesterday that I was crying as I watched him run into his classroom. It just goes to show that things are never as bad as we think they'll be and that we can get used to the changes around us. And we survived 8:00 AM Kindergarten, which I never thought we could!
Derek really grew these last nine months. He made several friends, is great at addition, he's getting better at reading, and he has great handwriting. (I've got to figure out a good system to help him keep it up over the summer.) His teacher wrote a note on his report card that said: "Derek, you are such a happy guy! Your imagination is awesome. Your responses in class are g.r.r.eat! Thanks for being my friend. Love, Mrs. Paulsen". I was disappointed that they didn't have a Kindergarten graduation. I thought it would have been cute.
And here he is on the last day.
He's growing too fast! I'm sure going to miss my cute little Kindergarten Derek. First Grade here we come!
