Claire's Preschool Graduation

This past year, a few of my friends and I took turns teaching a preschool curriculum with an eye toward kindergarten readiness for the older ones. We held a graduation for Claire and Karlee, who are both entering kindergarten, but I made little diplomas for everyone for peace's sake and we had cupcakes to celebrate.

 I took this before she was ready while she was coughing--Sophie is allergic to many tree pollens (and we live in Oregon...).

 Okay, ready with the million dollar smile.

 Claire and Karlee

 My Smartie Girl, in an outfit designed by herself. Photobomb supplied by adoring little sister.

 Claire carefully observes the cutting of the cupcakes to make sure Kristy isn't shorting her.

 Soap and Kiya created an auxiliary party in the corner.

 Eloise was there too and she wore shoes for the occasion!

 Amalyn thought that was some delicious frosting. She looked like George Albert Smith!

 Soap is becoming famous for her angelic curls. Wonder if they'll last?

 Cheese Ball.

 Crawling like Mayasaurs.

Running like maniacs.
