Today was Meghan's last day in kindergarten!!! Ms. Shelton (her teacher) put on an awards program and show for us!  It was so fun to watch Meghan and her class during the program.  I helped in her class the whole year...every week and on most special occasions too. I am so proud of the whole class and  have really enjoyed seeing each and every one of them grow and change so much this school year.  

 Ms. Shelton gave out awards for walking the UK...the kids walked a few laps every day before recess and Meghan received an award for walking 26 miles this year.  A few kids (the runners) received awards for "walking" 50 miles!!    They also received candy bar awards....Meghan received a Mr. Goodbar award for being a good friend to everyone.  Ms. Shelton really thought about the candy bar awards...one little boy received  a bag of sour heads....rough on the outside but sweet on the inside!  The best candy bar award went to an extra special little guy...he received an apple...Ms. Shelton said he was the "apple of their eye" ( someone who is cherished above all others).  

I am officially the mother of a first grader (and Kindergartener, since Jenna starts school this fall).

The kids all left today with a cloth bag with everyone's hand print and signature on it along with a scrapbook from their year. The scrapbook has art work from classmates in it, pictures of them each month of school and other cute updates.    Ms. Shelton is a fantastic teacher and we are hoping we get one more year with her, since Jenna is going to Kindergarten next year!!    

SUMMER BREAK!!!!
