Ethan Graduates from Kindergarten!

Last night was Ethan's Kindergarten Promotion! We are so proud of him! Ethan and I have worked really hard this year and have had such a wonderful year. It flew by... I am so glad we have chosen to homeschool, it has been an amazing experience. I am blessed to be able to do so. Here are a few pictures from the evening...


Ethan before the promotion... He is SO proud of himself! We are too!


He is such a precious boy. He loves being with his family and is such a peace maker. He loves his brothers.


A sweet picture. You can really see his missing tooth!


This was after the promotion with his certificate.

In this picture while we were trying to get the picture Ryan reached over and touched his lips. I said "Oh, don't touch his face Ry.", he said "But mommie, he is only a baby, he doesn't know how to say cheese..." It was sooo sweet. He was trying to help his brother say cheese! : )
