Alyssa's Jr. K Graduation

Today Alyssa graduated from Jr. Kindergarten. This is her walking in...they each walked in one by one... (note the hand in the mouth...this is what she does now when she's in front of people, it's her attempt to try not to smile). During the Mother's Day program which was very small, just her class, in her classroom, just the moms watching, the kids just got up and sang us a few songs...her hand or arm was in her mouth the entire time, so needless to say, I was a little nervous for this graduation program, it was much bigger, more people watching (moms & dads and even grandparents) and she had to say stuff ALL by herself in to the microphone. I said a prayer before the program started that she would actually say her line. :-)
This is the morning AND afternoon class
She DID IT!!!! She said it perfectly. They were doing an animal zoo skit and she was Suzie Seal. Her line was to say, "I'm right here and willing but do you suppose, I must practice walking with a ball on my nose?" I didn't get a picture of that because Trevor would not give me my camera. This is her the 2nd time around where everyone said what they wanted to be when they grew up. She said, "I want to be an artist." (note the picture is very fuzzy and dark, something to do with Trevor playing with the camera, yeah not the best toy for him, but I was desperate to keep him entertained).
Way to go Alyssa!!! I was so proud!!

I'm impressed that Alyssa memorized that line--it's kind of complicated! Very impressive, way to go Alyssa!

Alyssa, good job girl! That is impressive, I still get nervous in front of people! I cannot believe you will be in Kindergarten next year.
