Not a Tiny Tot Anymore


Sophia graduated from preschool on Friday!

At graduation the class sang songs, demonstrated their American Sign Language and Spanish vocabulary and played musical instruments. A few of the kids were asked to do "solos." Sophia's solo was counting to 10 in Spanish and paying the harmonica. She did, of course, awesome. Graduation ended with each child making a speech about what s/he liked best about school. Sophia eloquently spoke about liking everything because it is all fun.

She started at the neighborhood preschool, Tiny Tots, at 3 years old. When she started she was shy and nervous around unfamiliar people. She's so much more confident and talkative now! We have made many friends there. I will miss our morning walk/bike ride to school and the socializing on the playground after class.

Time for Kindergarden.

The kids are sooo big. Soph looks so old. I was quite proud that she wanted to do solo when ever the teacher offered.

Good job Sophia!
