Saturday Photo Scavenger Hunt, May 10th
I had a hard time working with no theme this week---it was too wide open for me! ;-) Should I go with my best picture of all time? A photo that captures the essence of one of my children?
I decided to go with a picture that captures an important part of this week.My job is to teach these little ones, and here at the end of the year, they are graduating and moving onto Kindergarten. Here we are practicing for the program, the first time with putting on the gowns. Part of our program next week is to let them know how special we think they are and to let them know they're moving into a new phase of their lives.
Do they understand all that? No. But they are all excited to go on to Kindergarten! Should kids expect to graduate every time they move to a new school? Hmmm . . . that's debatable. But do the parents love it? I think so! ;-)
If you're interested in the Photo Hunt, check out TNChick. This week's theme was "blogger's choice" and next week it's candy----one of my favorite things. :-)

What a cute photo! :) Boy, times sure have changed. When our mom finished kindergarten, there was no graduation! Her only graduations were at the end of grade 8, grade 13 (high school) and then university!

That is simply precious! So many legs and hats tilted in every direction, much as the paths their individual lives will lead them in.

Oh, I'm gonna cry again! My little one "graduated" from pre-school this week too. Great shot!
THANK YOU for what you do. Your job is very important. My daughter LOVES her teachers. She is really going to miss them.

How precious! I miss that age. I work with the older kids. Still sweet, but not the same. ;)

I remember wearing those same mortar boards when I graduated from nursery school. We might have looked silly but we felt immensely proud. Good for them!

I think this was a great choice for the any photo theme. I love the shot of the children as well as your post. Happy weekend.

Graduation from... pre-school? I have a friend who teaches kindergarten here in Hong Kong and they have graduations at her school too! Sorry to put a bit of a damper on things but, gosh, these seem societies that get people started on the rat race awfully young... :S

We do get a little carried away with graduations, don't we?
By Katney, at Saturday, May 10, 2008 10:41:00 PM
My daughter has a K graduation on May 15th - exciting but sad, too - sad that she's not going to be my "little" girl anymore... I can't wait to see her decked out in cap & gown tho!!
