Garrett's End of School

Garrett's Kindergarten teacher had been working with her students for a couple months on the "Three Piggy Opera". Each child had a speaking and singing part. We came to watch the fruits of their labor in this darling play.

Garrett was the big Billy Goat.

He is a pretty shy guy but got up and delivered. I was so proud of him.


Although, not school related, Garrett lost his first tooth on May 6th. He had been working it over for a week or so and it finally popped out while eating a popsicle. HOORAY. He couldn't wait to leave it for the Tooth Fairy.

The dance festival brought many tears at our house. "I absolutely do not want to do the dance!" was all I heard all morning. I almost let him stay home because it's not a mandatory thing. Then I figured there are many things that we do whether we want to or not and so off we went to school.

I can't describe the excitement this little boy showed on his face when he actually got out there and did the ducky dance.

He did such a good job and was so proud of himself. A few little tears may have been shed by a mom who completely understands how hard it is to do something so far out of your comfort zone.

Good Job Garrett on your dance festival AND a great Kindergarten year! We love you!
