Last day of preschool

Claire had her last day of 3 year old preschool last Thursday. She is already asking when she gets to go back. She cannot understand the concept of "September" or "in 3 months" or "in a little while".
Here she is ready to go on her last day. She loves to pick out what to bring for sharing (in the white bag) and what to bring for her snack (pink bag).

Here is Claire with her teacher Mrs. Beesley. Words cannot express how thankful I am that we know her and have been able to send both of our kids to her preschool. Claire has literally blossomed in front of our eyes. When she started school she was very clingy and cried when she got dropped off by me - not anyone else of course! She has become much more social and says hi to her friends when we see them at parties or at church. She also made a special friend who happens to be a boy. She asks all the time if we can go to Nolan's house. We are sad that he won't be in preschool next year, but her favorite girl friend Ava will! We had a lot of fun carpooling with Ava. They are really funny when they chat with each other in the car.

A last day picture with everyone: Cayden, Nolan, Ben, Mrs. Beesley, Claire, Ava, and Katie. Next year there will be 12 kids in her class including Elaina.

They had such a great year with Mrs. Beesley. Claire has really blossomed like you said. She even smailes at me know if I say Hi or will even ask a question or say something. (not the cold shoulder anymore!) ;P She is going to have a great time with her cousin in the class next year.
