Graduating Kindergarten

Jodi has officially graduated kindergarten. It was a bittersweet day for me and Fred as this time has gone so quickly. She is growing up very fast before our eyes. You could tell how much she and her classmates love each other! They were running around laughing and playing, giggling at each other as they performed... so cute. We hate that they are going their separate ways next year though we hope to stay in touch with many of them.

Jodi had her dance recital on Saturday night and really did well. She kept saying how nervous she was but she didn't freeze on stage and really looked like she was having a great time. We were quite the proud Mom and Dad. She made a special friend in class this year who said Jodi was his girlfriend. He is pictured with her at the recital. He fearlessly performed a solo performance of "Bad" during the recital and told his grandmother that his dream is to be on "So You Think You Can Dance." The last day of kindergarten, she said she found him lying on his bed looking sad and he said,"You have no idea how hard it's going to be not seeing your girlfriend every day.... no idea." Wow... I couldn't help but tear up because of how adorable that is. Tomorrow we celebrate her birthday so more to follow!
