Yesterday was Ellie's last day of Kindergarten. The day was filled with memories, good-byes and a few tears .. oh yeah, those were mine! She was very excited to know that she will be moving on to First Grade next year.
These pictures are of a box that Miss Dillow made for each of her students. She carried it like a suitcase and it was filled with so many memories.
The front has a picture from the very first day and the nearly last day of school to show how much they've grown. It also shows a hand print from the first and last days. The back is a wonderful array of group class shots from different holidays and events they celebrated.
The best part is the box is FILLED with all the wonderful work Ellie completed this year. Lots of writing, coloring, worksheets and photos. It was an amazing thing for Ellie to sit with me last night and say, "Mommy, remember when I drew people and they all had belly buttons? I saw so silly then!" Hardly seems that long ago, but to her it was at the BEGINNING of the year!
What a treasure that Miss Dillow has provided us! It's a keeper for sure!!
