Graduation





Not mine, though I do wish it were!My little man is not so little anymore. Last week he graduated from Kindergarten. Yikes!
That means in just a few short months he will be a first grader, he will stay at school all day, he will have lunch in the cafeteria.
I will admit that I got choked up at his graduation when his teacher was talking about preparing the kids for first grade. It's just hard to believe he's that old.
Bentley has done great this year. He is learning to read, and has done great with writing. His math skills are great, which was definitely not something he inherited from his momma! He had an amazing teacher who really focused on each child's individual needs. I am so thankful for teachers like her.
I'm so proud of my dude, and look forward to the adventures that we will have this summer!

T-ball




Last summer Bentley did a program called "Smart Start" baseball, which was basically just teaching the essentials of the game for an hour on Saturdays. He enjoyed it, but it didn't have that baseball feel. No games, no sitting in the bleachers cheering for him, none of that. So this year, when I found out he was old enough for T-ball, I was pretty excited.
I think I may have been more excited than he was....

*Sigh*

Dance like no one is watching.


Chloe started dance this year. There was no question in my mind of whether she would enjoy it or not. This girl was born to perform. She loves the ballet skirts, the tutu's, the ballet shoes, and spinning like a ballerina. Well, this month was her end of the year showcase, and we were all looking forward to it. Chloe was excited to wear her Tinkerbell green dress, complete with giant tutu, I was looking forward to seeing her preform, and Kaleb was hoping for a "Little Rascals"-type performance. If you don't know what I mean, watch this. While it was not quite as exciting as Kaleb was hoping for, we were all so proud of my little dancer. She had a great cheering section including me, Kaleb, Bentley, Mattix, her dad and his girlfriend, Grandma Marcie, and Grandma-Grandma and Grandpa-Grandpa.
Blogger wont upload the video, but I did post it on facebook, so check it out!
