Bring Me Kleenex Tomorrow

Wasn't I just taking his first day of school picture? How is it that he is done with Kindergarten forever tomorrow? He has grown up so much this past year. I mean, the boy has offered to do the dishes, made his bed and mine yesterday AND got up from dinner to offer to refill my water glass. He brings his laundry hamper downstairs when it gets full.
What is going on?
WHO is his amazing mother?
Totally kidding, I am his lucky mother!
I love my Grahamie and as excited as I am for him to grow up I still am allowed to be sad at the same events.

We went and picked up his teacher gift for tomorrow. Look at the size of those cookies!! I put a Dixie Cup next to compare for you - we went with a 1/2 dozen of them with the cheesy phrase, "You've been an Over the Top amazing teacher!" (Since the cookies were from the store Over the Top - get it? Get it? Oh my gosh I kill myself with my creativity some days.) We of course had to sample one and yummmmmm! They are so good!

Graham had his Kindergarten program today. He did GREAT!! Got up on the stage and I have video proof that he sang a few words. (I know - shut up!) My super shy boy did fantastic.

Another proud moment for me, all the kids had to write down their favorite book for the show...

Graham answered:

The scriptures and Dr. Suess's The Sneetches.
I about fell off my chair.

This was one of the FOUR girls who wanted his picture taken with him...she was trying to put her arm around him and he just stepped waaaayyyyyy back.

But right now he has a little friend crush on this cute girl in blue.
Won't say names since I don't want to jinx anything and I am really crossing my fingers for this to work out in 17 or 18 more years. Doesn't Greg look tall (hard to tell with a cup in his face but he has grown over an inch in the past month!)

Graham and one of his good buddies, K. Cutest kid - I am sad they are not in the same class next year but they'll see each other on the playground I'm sure.

And I couldn't leave LuLu out - this is from Saturday when my two nephews were baptized. Turns out she likes homemade rootbeer and/or party supplies like her mom. Too cute. My friend Cindy in Alabama made this dress for her - I need to do a little photo shoot at the park with her in it to show off her amazing work!
