kindergarten graduation

today was mia's kindergarten graduation. her teacher sure went above and beyond with the presentation! the kids were decked out in darling graduation hats and performed a poem and 3 songs (all memorized) for the audience. they did such a great job!! miss whisler even made a slideshow presentation of pictures from the whole year, which of course made me tear up. each student was presented with a graduation certificate, and miss whisler also acknowledged several of the mommy helpers. it was a great day to celebrate all of mia's accomplishments! i'm having a hard time preparing myself for the fact that my baby is going to be in 1st grade next year and will be gone most of the day. i guess i had better really soak up these next 3 weeks with her.

Mia is such a cutie in her hat. I hardly recognize Russ. He looks great!
