Last Days of School

Lucy Goose graduated from elementary school this year.  She's on to sixth grade and Sigonella Middle School.  Of course, there had to be a ceremony and luncheon to celebrate the occasion.  

When did she get so big?  She looks so grown up in this outfit she put together.  She has become quite the fashionista as of late and loves putting together new combos.  Many of the teachers at the school have pulled me aside to tell me how much they love her style and fashion sense.  

Graham's teacher this year was Mrs. Zak.  She's a little rough around the edges, but she is a fabulous teacher.  The first two months of school, every prayer that Graham gave included something like this, "Please bless that Ms. Zak won't yell at us anymore" or "Please bless that Ms. Zak will be nicer."  She really is a sweet lady, just a bit of a yeller.  You'd think he'd be used to it.....his mother is anything but soft-spoken.  

Lucy loved her teacher, Mrs. Perkins. I feel like Lucy is ready for middle school because of this lady. She was tough at times and asked a lot of her students, but Lucy thrived and rose to the challenge.  

Lucy signed on to participate in Battle of the Books this year.  The students read a handful of books and study them together.  Then there was a competition against the middle school kids to see who knew the most about each book.  There were trivia questions that they were asked.  It was a lot of fun to watch!  

 This is one of her multiple iTouch selfies that she took on the bus to school.  

So proud of this girl!
