Tessa's Kindergarten Graduation

Last Friday, Tessa graduation from Kindergarten. She is so excited to be moving on to First Grade next year. The Kindergarten classes put on a little graduation programs for their parents to come and see. Tessa was sad that her Daddy missed it, but was surprised to see Ma, Dee and Eddie there with Mommy. She looked super cute as a little graduate. 



 Despite what you may think, Tessa hates to perform, so this was a challenge for her. They sang several songs and each had a little speaking part. Tessa told me that morning that there were 3 songs that she didn't like and she thought the actions to them were dumb. Ma and I got the giggles during one of the song that she didn't like called, "I like being me". After singing each line, Tessa would mutter an opposing comment under her breath. For example, "I like being me" and Tessa would mutter, "No I don't". I have no idea whey she didn't like this song, but it sure made us laugh watching her being annoyed through the whole thing. 
 She did great memorizing and delivering her part. It's only been a week and we both already forgot her line!

 Dee and Eddie brought her a "candy necklace" as she calls it. It was full of her favorite candy, swedish fish!
