more pre-school for PeeWee...He is off to bigger and better things!

So, back in May, my little P graduated from Pre-school! I can't believe it! I remember the day he was born...I was a freshman in high school! My-Oh-My how times flies. (Couple more years and I'll be re-writing this post for little Miss Kartoon! AHHH!)

These little 5 year olds really had no clue what was going on. They had practiced and practiced for this event, and did such a wonderful job at staying in line and doing what they were told. They don't really get the point of "graduation", which is okay...They will "get" it once they become seniors in high school and college. Until then, their families will just make this little accomplishment seem like the coolest thing ever! Here is how every thing went down. They sang songs, did some recognitions of some very special helpers, sang a few more songs (super cute!), got their diplomas, then paraded out to turn in their caps and gowns. (Which were all hand made might I add. God bless the special lady who took the time to make brand new caps and gowns for these cute kiddos!) Then, we got to eat cookies, drink some juice, and see all the cool projects and crafts the kids had done throughout the year. The teacher, who just happens to be P's aunt on his dad's side, even made a special scrapbook for each kid!

Here is P receiving his diploma.

And of course, the family picture!

I asked P what he wanted as a graduation gift. He wants a lunch box, so we have a search to go on...Here is a story of our luck so far.

We were at Wal-Mart the middle of July and I saw there were some lunch boxes out on display. I took P over to take a look to see if there was one he wanted. His 3 options: Blue Transformer, Jonas Brothers, and Pink Disney Princess. Well, of course Pink Disney Princess was out first! Then things got a little difficult. P started looking at the Blue Transformer. I thought he was sold, and boom bam dang, my job would be done...NOT SO LUCKY. He picks it up does a look over, and I once again remind him, "If you don't see one you want, don't worry about it, we have the rest of the summer to look for just the right one." His response, "I know, just let me look for a second." So he continues looking at Transformer, then says to me, "Well I like it, but I don't really like the blue. I say, "Well okay, that's fine. We'll just leave and look somewhere else." "But Aunt Kayt," he says, "wait, I'm not done looking." WHAT? How can he not be done the only one left is a JoBro! I said P, "You don't want that one, you don't even know who those boys are. Don't you want one that has things/people on it that you know who they are?" "AUNT KAYT (said on a 5 year old exasperated sigh) I do too know who they are, they are the Jonas Brothers! But, you're, right I don't want it." P then walked off leaving me with my mouth wide open...My 5 year old nephew knows who the JoBros are?! What????

Needless to say, we still don't have a lunch box. Better get on that soon, school starts in about a week!
