Big Boy!

Well Declan had a big milestone this week and he graduated from preschool. Although it wasn't the biggest of milestones since he'll do it again next year :-) Since Declan is a summer birthday, we have the anguish of deciding whether he will go to Kindergarten next year or not... So far we've decided to hold him back. I think he could be ready, but I can also tell what a few months can do for a kid. We've also pretty much asked EVERYONE that we know what they did with their kids or what they wish they would have. We didn't meet anyone that said that it wasn't a good idea to have them be one of the older ones versus the younger ones, so unless something dramatic happens this summer, we'll send him again to preschool. We have him signed up for preschool with the district - it's basically like 4K and he gets to take a bus! Exciting for him, but more exciting for Andy who won't have to haul all the kiddos with him to drop him and pick him up. We've been fortunate this year because one of the mom's of Declan's friend picks him up twice a week and takes him to school and then I try to work from home in the morning as much as I can so I can take him. Next year will be great because he'll get to take the bus from right down the street!

Here are some pictures and videos from Declan's graduation...

 Looking all serious - he made me give him a mohog (aka mohawk) so he would look "nice"

They put on a whole program for us :-)

We got to watch them in their music class...

And him getting his diploma...
