Preschool Graduation

On May 13th, Hyrum graduated from Liahona Preschool. Hyrum has loved every single minute of going to school.

Ben and Emmy before the program began.Last year, Hyrum didn't really participate much in the program, but this year he stepped it up a little.

To start off the program they sang the Hello Song from the Primary Children's Song Book. Hyrum looked so cute singing the song and doing the actions. I loved his cute little bow he did at the end of each performance. Hyrum was so much fun to watch during his program.Next, the kids sang their ABC's and then Five Little Pumpkins.

The kids then went on to count to 100. Hyrum LOVES counting to 100 and is quite proud of himself that he can do so. He will count for anyone who will listen.Next, the kids sang Turkey Dinner. Followed by the kids reciting 1 Nephi 3:7.The kids then went on to sing 10 Little Indians. Followed by the kids reciting 2 Nephi 2:25 and singing Away in a Manger.

Next, the kids recited Alma 32:21 and went on to sing Jesus Loves Me. The kids then recited Jacob 2:18, April Showers Bring May Flowers, and Alma 41:10.The kids then went on to sing Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes in English and then Spanish. Followed by the Days of the Week song in English and Spanish.

Next, the kids named off the months of the year. To end the program the kids sang a Good-Bye song.

After the kids finished singing, Ms. Tami commented on how much the kids have learned this year and to keep up the good work during the summer.Ms. Tami gave each child a certificate and workbook.After Ms. Tami finished passing out the workbooks, the kids each gave a flower to her telling why they liked her as a teacher. Hyrum's reason why he loves Ms. Tami was that she let them have a sprinkler party.The downer of the night was that Brandon ended up getting stuck at his externship and missed the whole thing. Hyrum was worried at first before I told him that Brandon could watch his program with him at home.

Did anyone noticed that Hyrum's buttons were off? I didn't notice at all that night until Brandon commented on the pictures. Mother of the year award!

Hyrum has come so far! He is such a smart little guy. His reading has improved by leaps and bounds and he is doing simple math problems. To be honest, it makes me a little sad thinking about him going to Kindergarten next year. I can't help but wonder if I have prepared enough for the next big step in his life. Brandon and I love him so much. We are so lucky to have our Handsome Hyrum in our family. We can't wait to see all the many wonderful things he will accomplish!
