Graduate

Officially a second grader!

So proud.
Full of joy.
Full of tears.
Full of joyful tears.

She left our house in the morning a 1st grader and came home a 2nd grader! We can't believe we have a 2nd grader in our house!

First day of 1st grade

Lord, thanks for giving Kayla a wonderful school year, full of friends, the best teacher ever, and the ability to excel at her school work. Kayla's friendships with "old" friends grew, new friendships flourished, she excelled in reading (ended the year by passing all the 2nd grade spelling words & reading 4th grade level books!) and passed every math and spelling test the entire year with 100%.

 The required dress code for the last day of school was shorts and tennis shoes to celebrate with the entire 1st grade a fun field day party outside.

 Pete Raymo challenged Kayla to a hula-hoop-off! Pete was REALLY good - they both were - but Kayla won!

 Good friends - Kiaya, Danika, Kayla, and Meghan

 A second set of twins in Kayla's class and these girls LOVED Kayla!

We wish we could bring Mrs. Raymo with us to 2nd grade; we are going to miss her SO MUCH! But we are already looking forward to a great year with Mrs. Schweihofer next year!

HAPPY SUMMER VACATION! WE MADE IT!
