Graduation Day



Today we enjoyed Buggy's Mother's Day Out graduation day!  I loved seeing them march in single file with little Ladybug leading the way.  She seemed very surprised to see me...her face lit right up and she shouted, "Hey, that's my mommy!"

As all the kiddos lined up on the stage, she kept looking at us and shouting, "Hey, that's my mommy, that's my coco.  Hi Mommy, hi Coco!"

It was hilarious and we just egged it on by waving right back.

It was a super cute program with some singing and dancing before they all received their certificates.






The day was a little bittersweet for me.  I didn't think I would be emotional during the presentation, but a couple of tears slipped out.  I am very thankful for her sweet teachers and I'm also thankful that she is very happy here.  Oh, and let's not forget that she has certainly grown a lot during this past year.

She went from demanding to be carried into the school and not wanting to be left at the school....

...to running from the car right into her classroom without even a backward glance at Mom.

It took a long time, but that finally happened.  Guess we will have to start all over again this fall!

I also love, love, love how they gave us a little scrapbook of pictures throughout the year.  I'm so very proud of that.  I will take pictures of it and share with you soon.

Nanny got a little teary eyed just reading about her graduation. She is growing and learning so much. I can just hear her saying hi mommy, hi Coco. She is precious, such a blessing from God.

Doesn't she look so much smaller than the other kiddos?

Oh, this means one more step to the big graduation! She is really growing not only taller but educational thanks to loving parents and auntie!
