Kindergarten...COMPLETE!

My baby boy has finished his first year of formal education - kindergarten! I am beyond proud of my boy and he did such a fantastic job this year. He worked hard to be the best listener he could be, learned something new every day and sometimes every minute! He leaves kindergarten a little older, a little wiser and definitely a little bit more ready to face this world bravely. He is no longer that nervous kid on the first day of school. No sir! He is now a confident First Grader! He is armed with the knowledge of how this school thing works and is ready to conquer another year (but let him have his break first!)

Here is Nicholas on the first day of kindergarten




And here he was today - a full school year past. This is at his Stepping Up program they do at his school. Along with his Stepping Up award, he got the Good Citizen award, Perfect Attendance award and the Advanced Reader award.
