We survived Kindergarten!

Wow!

It seems like yesterday this guy headed off for his first day of Kindergarten.

Up early- "no folder, empty backpack" they said.
Where's my DC shirt?

one more minute, please?

donuts to celebrate

telling us about his self-portrait

that he changed to a picture of Elijah, when E. asked him about the earrings. either way, I think it's great for a barely 6 yr old's work

He looks so tough

which one do I want

getting ready for Aunt Nae school

Trouble X two- but aren't they adorable!

So cute. 

picking up little man- last day at Burlington

Mrs. Flora- we couldn't have done it without her. 
An awesome Christian lady who didn't just teach, but loved my baby. Oh, did I mention she likes
sunflowers and UT? 

and we ended the day with a headache- and missing his "bubby"
(he's looking at Shayne's picture to make him feel better)

I have mixed feelings about this school year being over.  I wouldn't call it an easy year by any means.  But, we are so thankful for his teacher who I believe made the struggles bearable.
We had our last IEP meeting at Burlington Monday- yes people I cried when we finished up and Rex and I thanked them.   I guess when you're in the trenches battling for a common goal, you become family. 
How weird is that?
Anyhoo, tomorrow starts summer vacation for Isaiah- Elijah is on a slightly different schedule, what with NefFlix Aunt Nae homeschooling and all. 

And we, 40Something parents are finally out of Kindergarten, for good:)

Happy Wednesday y'all!
