Congratulations Timmy!!!

Last Wednesday, Timmy graduated from Preschool!!! And we got to go to his graduation!! 
Khara is the secretary at Grace Chapel Community Church which is also where Timmy went through preschool. The pastor told us right when we walked in the door, "We love Khara!! She runs the place!"

They were actually having the Discovering Preschool program along with the Kindergarten Preparation program that evening. 

This was just a cute little schoolhouse that was sitting up front. Each of the little preschoolers walked through the door to receive their diploma. 

There was a slideshow with a bunch of pictures of all the kids, and we spotted a couple with Timmy in them :) He's the one on the right in the picture below. 

Where's Timmy? 
There he is!! In that camo, he just blends into his surroundings!!! Just kidding :)

Saying their pledges. They said both the "Pledge of Allegiance" and the "Pledge to Myself".
 Timmy is in the blue shirt on the left.

This is the words to their "Pledge to Myself". You can enlarge the picture by clicking on it. 

Timmy's class also sang a song. Can anyone spot Timmy?
He's that cute little dude in the center in the blue shirt. ;-)

Standing up there with all the other kids... He looks so big! How did he grow up so fast!?!

Oh, and these are the words to the song they sang. 

And here is the video of their song, "When I Grow Up". 
It's a little bit hard to see Timmy, but he is the first kid to the right of that lady sitting up there.... He's like right beside her head and he's in a blue shirt. 


 Isn't that little cap and gown too cute?!! 

The lady who presented the diplomas shook each little boy and girl's hand.....

.....Timmy and another little boy just gave her "a five"!! 

Congratulations buddy! 

Here, there is a diploma and no tassel...

... and here, there is a tassel and no diploma!!!!!! 

This is a portion of his classmates. See the 3 boys in the center back? Timmy is in the middle of them.

Can you find Timmy here?! He's the one with his diploma in his mouth! 

Awww! 

What a ham!! 

Timmy is the tallest in the picture... that's slightly rare!! He was one of the few kids who didn't knock his cap off when he walked through the little door of the schoolhouse! 

This is Timmy's whole preschool class.

This is part of the church... "the cafe". They had some refreshments set up back there for after the program... but we didn't stay. We all went out to Dairy Queen for ice cream :)

There's the little graduate! I see a word written all over his face that says "ornery"!!! 

Poor Tim was having a hard time. He had eye surgery several days prior and was still having difficulty with seeing and focusing and everything. He said that seeing at night was harder and that bright lights were sorta painful, too.  

All the little kids came out with these shirts after the ceremony. Building Blocks is Grace Chapel's Learning Center. 

A family picture! You can't really tell, but Khara already has a little bitty baby bump!!!
I felt so bad for Tim. He said he was trying to keep his eyes open... but you can tell that the lights shining right at them were making that pretty hard...


Khara, Timmy, Abbey, and Tim!!!

Does someone look a little tired to you?! He did really good through the whole program though!

What a cutie :)


Afterwards, we went to Dairy Queen, got some ice cream and visited for a while.
Mom and Dad got Timmy a set of police Legos, and a few days later, Timmy called to say that he'd followed the instructions and gotten all of his Legos together!
He's so smart... I'm sure he'll do fabulous in Kindergarten!!!
