Alex graduates

Today, Alex graduated from kindergarten. He has had such a great year making new friends and learning more than I ever thought possible. It has been a year of firsts - first time playing over at a friend's house by himself, first "girlfriend", first field day, and on and on. We have loved every minute of St. Louis and we can't wait to see what the next eight years bring. Ms. Erin and Ms. Jeanice have been great, and Alex has loved, loved, loved having them as teachers.

The graduation ceremony and reception were really cute, and Alex loved the special attention. He was even recognized for being only one of two kids to have perfect attendance. Afterward, we headed to Alex's lunch choice - Wendy's. 

And while it makes me a little sad to truly mark the end of preschool years (I mentally stretched it out until 1st grade!), I couldn't be more proud of my little man. He is such a sweet boy and loves school - great job Alex!
