It's Time to Graduate

Tomorrow, Thomas graduates from Pre-K. It's been a year already.Wow. Where has the time gone? In August he'll be going off to Kindergarten. Elementary school. My baby's growing up and I get to start all over again with Brendan.. I'm looking forward to it, but in some ways not.- the writing on the walls the temper tantrums the potty training... He's going to have the cap and gown - the whole bit. the singing songs - the whole ceremony- I got my camcorder charged and camera alrready packed as any proud mom would! His teacher wrote a poem I thought was cute I thought I'd share with you. It's called "Everything I need to know I learned in VPK"
I've learned that green light is good, yellow light is a warning, and redlight means big dog trouble. I learned that sand is good,dirt is better but mud is best!
I learned that no matter how many times I'm told not to jump in the puddles I just can't resist! I've learned accidents just happen! I'm learning that using my words is so much nicer that using my hands. I've learned that sitting crisscross applesauce with a bubble in my mouth is so hard when my best friend is sitting next to me! I've learned that when I am sick I get to see Mommy or Daddy. I've learned that a snuggle hug makes me feel better whan I'm sad. Ive learned that no matter how many fun things my teacher has planned I just want to go to housekeeping/ construction area. I've learned to sing and dance. I've learned to write my name, my own way.And it looks good to me! I 've learne that can go anywhere when I look inside a book.I've learnedto hear things at least three times before I actually listen. I've learnednot to wear my best clothes because smocks dont cover everything!
I've learned that falling asleep at naptime is hard but I feel so much better when I wake up! Ive learned my letters and their sounds cause that how I start to read, Ms Roni says I'll need that in order to succeed. I've learned that its not hard to share When {I was 4 there was no way}I ve learned to raise my hand to speak, and my teacher says hooray! I've learned my bottom goes in the seat to keep me safe and stable, I've learned not to put my feet upon Ms Ronis table! I've learned that there are days when I want my mom or dad, But my teacher is always there. I've learned she always has a hug to show me that she cares. So you might say I am ready for what Kindergarten holds in store. I have respect, honesty, self control and I wont quit anymore.My teacher says that I am great, and it is time to graduate!
