A Lot of Pomp and Circumstance

About a month ago Jack went through his preschool "graduation" ceremony. Why the quotes? Because, really, who actually graduates when they're 5? We approached the evening with much skepticism, but quickly had our hearts softened as twenty or more  4- and 5-year-olds sang all the songs they had learned about our nation's history and geography.

Jack's special song was about land formations.

He got to be the island of Hawaii.

Each of the graduates accepted their diplomas from Ms. Heather,

then got back in line to wave their caps once everyone had gone through.

Thanks for being such a good teacher, Ms. Heather!

Here is a picture of Wesley and Elise with some pirate graduate.

Oh wait, I guess that was Jack all along. Wes and Elise were so proud of their big brother!

And we are so proud of our son who is growing up to be a sweet, compassionate, tender-hearted little boy.
