Eden's Joy School Graduation Party


Little Eden made some cute friends this year and LOVED school- except when I was teaching. I don't think she actually considered it school when I didn't drop her off somewhere. She was so excited each Wednesday morning (she called it her "school day")...until after preschool was over and then she was so disappointed that she didn't get to go somewhere for school.


This year she learned the days of the week, how to trace, how to glue lots of things, how to color with effort instead of just scribbling, and lots of social skills. All the girls learned this little saying, "You get what you get and you don't pitch a fit." Which is actually something that Hope learned from one of her classmates early in the year and I applied during preschool when all the girls wanted the purple cup. I only have two purple cups. Lesson learned....buy the same color for all the girls. Which is why I brought them all a purple balloon for graduation.



For graduation we had a water party in Mrs. Sandi's backyard. The kids had a picnic and then played in water.

Eden with Carter (Lilia's little brother). Eden kept jumping and landing on her bum in the pool with would splash poor Carter in the face. Thank goodness he loved it.

Getting her diploma that Mrs. Aubrie (Lilia's mom) made. They are super cute and I'm so glad she thought to do it.
 

Aubrie was also thoughtful enough to get a picture of the first and last day and give a copy to all the moms. Thanks Aubrie!!!

I was lucky enough to be here and enjoy Eden's graduation party as well. I found that not only did little Eden make some great friends this last year but so did her mommy :) What a great experience for Eden and Lindsey. A great memory for Lindsey and Eden and a closer mother daughter bond was created, plus lots of new friends all around for the both of them ;)

Lindsey, I agree with Donna's FB comment. Although Eden looks like Ben most times, she looks like you in a number of these pictures, especially the last one! Very cute. I am glad you both had some good experiences. I love you all!
