Preschool Graduate

I can't believe its all over.  It is weird that I won't be dropping him off at his preschool anymore...that the comfort it took him over a year to feel in school will be washed away.  I hope that next year at his new school because he's older now, he will adjust sooner and easier.  I am so proud of him for how much light he brought to his classes...and how much he has grown.  Mrs. Johnson was so calm with Zackary.  She opened the patio and stayed out there too every morning which is where Zackary loved to spend his time.  She was a great guitar player and singer. 

Ms. Hett came along in summer school in between your two years here and the bond you both developed was special, which is why you also had her as your teacher for year number 2.  She loved the color orange like you and she liked fountains.  She was good building up confidence and self esteem and really got to know Emme too.  Emme will maybe start here soon but for now...we say goodbye to NCUMP!  We have a kindergartner! 
Zackary you are growing more and more everyday.  You love building right now with anything.  Yesterday you used your toys outside and put them all together and said it was a machine that carried water.  You build with Legos and Lincoln logs a lot and put together quite elaborate buildings and homes.  You are learning about coins and have begun drawing more since your sister loves to draw.  And wow do you help me take care of Emme.  What a big brother you are-calming her down, making sure we understand what she wants, sharing and playing with her everyday.  You are also a very good hiker, and explorer at the tide pools.  You love to visit Grandma and pick her boysenberries.  You two have visits together and read books, sing songs, and investigate everything and anything.  Your most passionate about playing the drums though, and you are exceptional at it.  Daddy says you are better than he was at your age and you know what, he played the drums from a young age too on everything, just like you.  Your sweetness and vocabulary melt my heart.  I am the luckiest mom because I have you as my son.  To the moon...and back
