Today is Gavin's last day of school. His last day of kindergarten. I cant believe his first year of school is over. It really flew by. And it makes me sad. He is going to be in First grade next year. He's not so little anymore. Next year he will be one of the big kids.
This year was full of excitement and changes for Gavin. He brought his lunch to school every day except Fridays. Friday he got lunch money and would eat pizza and ice cream with his friends. He also wore his school T-shirt on Fridays for spirit day. He was in a parade in school. He was in the play Peter Rabbit. By the second half of the year he was getting dropped off and picked up in the car line. He had homework every night of the week. He is now writing sentences, doing addition and subtraction, knows all of his sight words, and call tell time.
His teacher constantly told me how kind, thoughtful, and just how great Gavin is. He is friends with everyone in his class and doesn't shy away from anything. He loves PE. He loved going to the school library and checking out books. Especially when he could find ones on football.
Overall it was a wonderful first year of school for Gavin. Ken and I are both so proud of him. I hope that next year he continues to love school and do wonderfully again.
And to see how much time flies, below is a picture of Gavin from his first day of school.......

Wow, that transformation is amazing. I keep looking at Noah amazed at how much he looks like a "big kid" I am going to struggle next year with him going off all day every day and Aaron gone four mornings a week for preschool.
How wonderful....Congratulations Gavin!! I can't wait to start Kindergarten next year and be in a big boy school like you.
Love,
Austin
