Last Day of School

I can hardly believe that today was the last day of school. It seems like just yesterday, we were dropping Lucy off for her first day of kindergarten. She has learned so much this year and made so many new friends. She loves to read and is a science buff. She is always asking questions and wanting to learn new things. She also stayed on green for the whole year (the only one in her class).

At the awards ceremony yesterday, she won the Principled Award, for always telling the truth and always trying to do the right thing. I was so proud. Her teacher told a story about Lucy that showed how truthful my little lady is. A few months ago, Lucy received a free ice cream coupon from the Clean Desk Fairy. She was very excited, but asked Mrs. Burkett to please call me and make sure it was ok. I had told her when eating lunch with her in the fall, that she wasn't allowed to buy ice cream at lunch unless I was there (This was after I witnessed just about every kiddo in the class buy ice cream with their lunch and eat it and nothing else!) After much convincing from her teacher and with a promise to email me, she did eat the ice cream at lunch. My little rule follower is too cute!

She was so lucky to have a great teacher this year. She loved Mrs. Burkett so much and has already asked to invite her to her birthday party.

We are super excited about summer! We have lots of fun plans, but also hope to spend lots of lazy days at the pool and hanging out with friends. Lucy is especially looking forward to Fine Arts camp in July. She has already asked 4 times today, if it is next week.

I sure hope we stay this positive all summer and that it is the greatest one yet!

First day of Kindergarten (What a difference a few months makes!)

Looking forward to three months of fun in the sun,
