goodbye pre-k, hello kindergarten

addie-cakes graduated from pre-k on monday. 
she walked in timidly and then lit up when she saw us. :)
hello, awkward girl. :)
 they started by singing some songs - a hello song, slippery fish, and the wheels on the bus.
 everybody participated and it was super cute. it might have been cuter if the would have used the stage, or the steps right behind them so we could all have seen our kids. that little dancing daisy in black was all over the place, which was super cute, but i would have liked to have been able to see addie's smooth moves, you know.
 and then it was time for names to be read and for kids to get their certificates. that kind of waiting can be tough on the 5-year old crowd. ;)
she might look bored, but she kept it together. they all did actually.
 
 they were just a little bit silly.
 not much more than usual.
 and then it was addie's turn!
 angry addie?
 she's so funny!
she was trying to escape, but mrs. mcney trapped her and made her pose again.
 and that time it was a little bit better.
so very natural.  ;)
 i had asked sarah to watch frankie and laney so that we could just focus on addie. and then as i got delaney dressed and in the car, she started sneezing and her nose was all runny. so then i didn't want to chance leaving a little sickie with sarah, so little miss disgruntled came with us. she was ok... not great, just ok. and she never sneezed again - go figure.
i wanted to get some pictures of her with some friends. so we got this random girl... kadyn maybe?
and then bestie skie. 2 cutie brown eyed girls here!
then we went back to try and get a good one of her on the bridge...
didn't quite pan out...
but we tried.
and tried again.
and with mrs mcney.
and her favorite, miss jackie.
we love our little graduate!!!
addie has grown and learned so much this year in prek and i am glad we sacrificed and took her.every.day. ;) really though, i hope by letting her spend a few hours at school every day that her transition to kindergarten will be smooth and easy. our little emerging reader!
