Riley and Avery

Riley's Kindergarten graduation was on Wednesday. It was a fun time for all. I was really thankful for all the families that showed up even though only two kids were graduating. Kind of makes me feel bad for never attending any of the three graduations at the school before my kid graduated. Riley was super-tired and yawned throughout the ceremony.

After the ceremony, everyone gathered for snacks. Riley just broke down and cried uncontrollably, like her heart was breaking saying that she didn't want to leave the school. I don't think she quite understood that Kindergarten is only one year, since she had three years of preschool there. Rae said that she had never had a child react so strongly. Of course, Riley's been at that school for most of her life, literally. Then, five minutes after she managed to stop crying, she would start all over again. I took pictures of her with each of her teachers to frame for her, and arranged for pen pals.

I was in charge of taking the video, and Rudi took pictures. I did snap a few pictures between videos, but Rudi took the bulk of them. I haven't looked at the pictures on his camera yet, so I may have more to post later!
