The Class of 2008

Preschool graduation that is. They had a very cute, elaborate ceremony for Alyssa’s school allowing each kid to walk the stage and receive a certificate. They marched in to the typical graduation theme song and preformed a few songs for us. Most of the kids preformed…okay maybe all of them but mine?? They sang three songs and Alyssa told me early that week that she was only going to sing “I am a Promise”. She did not lie. She stood very still and solemn during the other, but jazzed right up on cue for her song. I couldn’t help but smile that she actually did one song. Oh, did I mention that she is the only kid without her cap on? At least she was easy to spot. Afterwards, she walked down, shook her teacher’s hand and received her award. As silly as it seems, I was very proud of her. Immediately following the ceremony, we walked down the hall to get her cap that she chose not to wear, and she insists on putting it on and proceeds to wear it the rest of the evening. She also showed me all the moves and sang along with her preschool songs on CD the next day, but forbid me to video … ugh! She is definitely a non-conformist.

  1. Well, she certainly is a woman of her word!
    And I love how she seems so concerned about her hair in the video. 🙂

  2. Before you know it, she’ll be graduating from college… She’s growing up so fast! Congratulations Alyssa! Love, Jeff and Mel Mel
