Officially Summer - Goodbye Preschool

Summer feels official today.  Not only is the weather absolutely perfect (I was starting to wonder if we'd ever see the sun!), but Rooke is done with preschool.  Wow!  That was a quick 12 months.  For the past year, we walked to preschool Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings.  He stayed for lunch on Wednesdays and Thursdays.  We had a rough start, but he ended the year having adjusted well and really enjoying his time with his teachers and the other kids.  His end "report" included these comments:
"Rooke has steadily grown in confidence during his time here."
"He especially enjoyed learning about recycling and trains."
"Rooke's favorite area at preschool is the book area and he enjoys sharing books with an adult.  More recently Rooke has also discovered that he likes to run 'really' fast outside in the garden."
They had a cute little "graduation" program for all the kids.  Being the professional mom that I am, I took my camera with dead batteries inside.  I'm working on getting some pictures from another mom.  But I did manage to get some shots on his last day.  They grow up so fast!

Wow! They have changed so much in just one years time! I love when they hold hands. :)

These pics make me miss them so much. It was such a treat to be able to walk Rooke to school, see his classroom and meet his teachers.
Love you all
