Last day of School

Today was the boys’ last day of school. I can’t believe this year is already over. It has flown by!

Our family was so blessed once again by our preschool. Jackson and Philip had amazing teachers. Philip’s teachers teach with the motto that the kids will finish the school year knowing Mrs. Mary, Mrs. Kim and God love them so much.

It was the same for Jackson. His teachers taught him so much academically this year but also, spiritually, he learned so much. His class recited the Lord’s Prayer and Psalms 23 in their end of the year celebration!

Wesley and I are so blessed that our boys are surrounded by teachers who genuinely care for them and love them with the love of the Lord!

It was a great year! And though the school year ended today, the fun times start back in two weeks for the summer session!

I joined Jackson's class for a few minutes of Water Play today!

Jackson LOVES this boy! So glad he lives in our neighborhood!

She was outside playing as well so I had to go snap a picture of this little angel!

Preschool "Graduation"

 Jackson’s Spring program this year was a graduation. Most of the kids in the 4 year old classes will go onto Kindergarten so this was their preschool graduation. Even though Jackson is coming back for one more year, he took part in the celebration.

Let’s just say it was adorable! And lets just say neither Mommy nor Daddy knew the cap and gown was going to come out! We both were caught off guard when the music started playing and Jackson came down the aisle! 


Jackson really loved singing - You're a Grand Ole Flag!






 
 
After the diploma presentation, the children recited three pledges (flag, God, and the Bible), said the Lord’s Prayer, and Psalms 23.

Then, they changed for a few more causal song choices: 



 


 It was a fun filled night and I was so proud of my little “graduate.”

School Pictures

School pictures recently came home with the boys. Here is a small sampling of what we had to choose from. The boys looked so handsome I decided on the pose with both of them together.


They take "graduation" picture of all the 4 year old classes. Even though Jackson is coming back for one more year of Preschool, they posed him in a cap and gown. Talk about an emotional shock when I saw these in the packet! I am not ready for this just yet!
Could be one of my favorite pictures - that face is too funny!

Braves Game!

Wesley was asked to join a group of YMCA teens at the Braves game tonight. Since he was given tickets in a suite, he took Jackson and Philip with him.

With one brave decision, he was named "All-Star Dad" when he decided to take public transportation down to the baseball field. Of course, Jackson and Philip loved it!

Smiles all around on Marta!
Marta is Smarta


 
More smiles when they loaded the shuttle bus!

Really? Watching baseball on a huge TV while sitting IN THE baseball stadium!

What a great view!
