On Nicole's last day of school they had a Luau program. These are her teachers, Ms. Kari and Ms. DeDe. She LOVED both of her teachers this year.
Nicole was supposed to walk behind the arch and stop on the X for a picture, but she just kept right on walking!
Hooray for Nicole! She finished her 1st year of preschool with flying colors! We are so proud of her and all that she has been able to accomplish in her life. She has overcome many obstacles with the help of many doctors, teachers, and therapists, and she's growing into such a remarkable young lady! She'll go to preschool again next year, but 3 days a week instead of 2.
On Nolan's last day of Kindergarten, they held a reception to show off all they've learned. Here Nolan is reading us a story he wrote and illustrated by himself. 
This is Nolan and his teacher, Ms. Vlasich. Isn't she so cute? It was her 1st year teaching, and Nolan loved her. She prepared a slide show of pictures of the kids throughout the year. In one segment she had individual shots of each student with a little caption with it...something she heard a lot from that child throughout the year. Some of them were funny--one girl's said, "Geez, Ms. Vlasich, I already told you that!" And another's said, "I have to go to the bathroom." Nolan's said, "Why does it do that? How? What makes it do that? Why?"
That's our boy!
Congratulations to Nolan for graduating from Kindergarten! He can't wait to be a 1st-grader so he can "eat school lunch, go to P.E., and have three recesses every day!" Life just doesn't get any better than that for a 6-year-old.
We've spent a lot of our summer days at the pool so far. The kids are little fish!
