Alayna's Preschool Non-Graduation Ceremony

Haha... long story but they are not allowed to have a "graduation" ceremony at Alayna's school. So instead all the parents were invited to watch a show (the kids danced and sang songs), they received a certificate of completion (but they didn't graduate), and we all ate food afterward (but it wasn't a party or celebration).

When I arrived she was sitting there on the carpet waiting patiently. She looked so cute and I was so proud of her. A lot of the other kids were all rambunctious like... by my daughter was an angel. :)


Then they sang their songs...




After their little performance they got their bags which had their certificates, a class picture, some work they did throughout the year, and some fun little gifts from their teachers.




Their teachers also posed for a picture with her. Mrs. Carolina on the left and Mrs. Theresa on the right. They are like the nicest teachers ever... I really loved them!


Then it was time to enjoy the food...


They sang their goodbye song (song they sing as everyone leaves the classroom to go home) and released their balloons. The kids loved this! The song says: "Goodbye (insert name here... but in this case they said Everybody), Goodbye Everybody, Goodbye Everybody, Until we see you again."



I can't believe that after this summer my baby girl will be in Kindergarten! Sheesh!

(I have to add that my sister, Alayna's Nina, bought her this outfit just because... and Alayna saved it all week long just for her last day of school. Isn't it adorable?!)

Then we went home with all her goodies. One Mom brought each student a balloon and when we got home this is what Alayna decided to do with it... Thanks Nichole I think you started a trend ;)
