End of the school year

Jimmy's last day of school was last Friday. He has had such a great year and has learned so much. I can't believe the way he has matured this last year. They ended school with a dance festival which involved the whole school. It was really fun to watch. The kindergarten did a dance called "Obama Hustle." They did a great job! Congratulations on a great year Jimmy! We are so proud of you!

This is Jimmy with his teacher Mrs. Brown. She is really an amazing teacher. She is getting ready to retire so next year will be her last year. I am really disappointed that Ben and Luke won't have the privilege of having her as a teacher. She is a fabulous teacher who sincerely cares about her job and, more importantly, cares about the kids she teaches. She has a way of truly bring out the best in each child. She certainly did in Jimmy and he LOVES to learn thanks to her! He is so cute. I told him that he should keep learning during the summer so each day during Luke's nap time we have been doing "summer school." We just read and do art projects and stuff like that but it's a lot of fun for us. I really hope that he will keep that love of learning with him throughout the rest of his life. Good teachers have a way of bringing that out in the kids they teach. Thanks Mrs. Brown for doing an amazing job!
