Graduations 2010

So this was my first year teaching preschool at Lil' Scholars Academy. I had 13 kids counting Rorie and 7 were boys. Sometimes I wondered if I would make it through the day but now it is over and I am so sad. I had a great group of kids and will miss them.



Jensen graduated from Kindergarten. They sang the song "What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong and did some sign language. They also did a goodbye song. He was one of the soloists, which really meant he sang with about 6 other kids a certain part of the song. One little girl was so loud you couldn't really hear anyone else. When he was asked what he wanted to be when he grew up he said " a Bicycle Cop". They made life size paper cutout of himself and of course it was yellow and green, the Oregon Ducks colors!! Here is video of him singing some of his song. I am missing a folder of pictures so I cannot find graduation pics but this video is from them practicing graduation songs the day of graduation, during a field trip. He was pretty proud to be a soloist. There is also a pic of him with a cow from the field trip where they visited a dairy,

Rylee and Rayah's Birthdays and haircuts

So, Here are pictures of Rylee(now 9) and Rayah(now 11) blowing out birthday candles on the 7th of May for Rylee and the 18th for Rayah. You will notice the long length of their hair. They both wanted to donate hair. Rylee had 8 inches that will go to Pantene's Beautiful Lengths and Rayah had 10 that will go to Locks of Love for the 3rd time in her short life. Here is an after picture of them.



How can we not be super proud of them??? :)

Quote for my life it seems!
