No More Monkeys Jumping On the Bed!

Cutest monkeys around!

Wow! Kindergarten is almost over… My little Kate is getting ready to move onto the first grade. This year has gone by so quickly as I have watched my Tater Tot change, learn and grow. Looking back and reading my post from last fall when Kate was beginning Kindergarten, I am in awe as to how much she has grown over the last nine months. She has turned into a child who loves to learn, enjoys her school friends and likes being at school. I am so proud of who she is becoming and look forward to watching her continue to blossom during her years in elementary school.

The Three Little Pigs!

Kate’s class had their end-of-the-year program recently. In lieu of a kindergarten graduation, the class celebrated their learning with a darling play “No Monkeying Around!” There were 19 monkeys performing songs, dances, rhymes and stories. It was a lot of fun for all the children and really fun to watch! Kate worked hard memorizing songs and lines for the program. We were so proud of her efforts and hard work.

"Mama called the doctor and the doctor said..."

Katie, you have had a wonderful year in Kindergarten! Mommy and Daddy are so proud of all you have accomplished. You learned how to say goodbye without tears and even walked into the morning line on your own as time went on. By the middle of the school year, we were amazed that you were beginning to READ, and your counting and number skills were at the top! Friendships grew and you adored each of your classmates. You worked hard at keeping games fair for everyone and always had kind wishes for them, too. You are growing into a wonderful person, Kate! Mommy and Daddy could not be more proud of you. We love you, Sweetie, and cannot wait to see what First Grade will bring for you.

Love and kisses,
Mom and Dad
