Last week I told you all about Lucas' school year and now it is Alex's turn.
Alex already had a year of preschool under her belt so was excited for her second.
This was a new school though, in a new city. But she made a new friend before preschool even officially began.
She started off the year writing her name in all capitols and unsure of how to spell her last name; and now she writes it just right. (though Alexandria is still a bit difficult for her to remember how to spell)
She would often rush through her work or "scribble-scrabble" as she would call it- but now takes the time to color nicely and was always proud to show me what she did.
She was always excited to go to preschool and would always ask me, 'now what days do I go again?'
She often would come home and be talking about the things she learned and would say some math problem that she knew the answer to leaving me wondering where she learned that.
About 3/4ths of the way through the year she began asking almost daily about when she would be in kindergarten and about all of the friends she was going to make in kindergarten.
And finally the day before graduation she passed off all of her sight words much to her excitement.

What is your PMM this week? Grab the button and link up with Kmama and me.
Oh yey!! She looks so darn cute with her graduation hat!! Mom I hate to say it but she's growing up!! I hope she loves K!!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! Sounds like she did awesome this year. Alexandria is a hard name to spell!!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet. That photo of her in the cap is adorable!
ReplyDeleteIt is so fun to see their progress through the year, and awesome to hear excitement about school, so much better than the alternative.
Can you believe you're going to have two in full time school?
Yay!!!! Congratulations, Alex!!! She looks so sweet in her graduation cap! :o)
ReplyDeleteAnd hey, getting all those sight words right is a huge accomplishment! Way to go!
She will love kindergarten! I love how enthusiastic kids are at that age for school. It's awesome. I wish it lasted all the way up through high-school! :)
ReplyDeleteShe is going to rock kindergarten! Not to mention be the leader of the pack. ;) hehe.
ReplyDeleteI love that bursting with pride feeling you get when your kids work so hard on something and then accomplish it! What a darling girl. And the growth she has made in the past year! Proud Mommy Moment indeed!
ReplyDeleteShe's just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAwww she is such a cutie and such a big girl now!
ReplyDeleteNice work Alex!! She will be awesome in Kindergarten. I'm glad Madeline still has preschool for another year. She can't spell her name yet to save her life even though she wrote it every week the whole year!
ReplyDeleteEvery time I see Alex all I can think of is how she's the cutest little girl of all time. I"m wondering if she's too old for my Charlie??? Probably. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute graduate!
ReplyDeleteHooray! It sounds like she is ready to take in on by storm.
ReplyDeleteWell, our oldest just graduated from high school, but it's funny. My husband and I talk about all the other "graduations" he's had -- the one we remember is his from preschool. Maybe because we taped it and he watched it so much? Who knows?
ReplyDeleteShe looks so darn cute...and SO proud! Congrats to your little graduate :)
ReplyDeleteAwww! She looks so grown up in those pictures! They just keep growing too fast. =(
ReplyDeleteAsher graduated yesterday and was much the same as far as excitement! What a fun time for them!
ReplyDeleteAww Bless her, you must be so proud! Well done little lady xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweetheart! I love that sparkle in her eyes. Yay for the little graduate. :)
