Little Miss Carlie graduated from preschool last night! Grandma Linda, Grandpa Steve, Dido, Steph, and Merle all came to see her on her big day. She was so excited to graduate from Mrs. Natalie's Class with all her friends. They started out the graduation by singing two song the ABC's and The months of the year! Carlie is my little singer around the house I cant ever get her to stop, so I was a little surprised that she was shy and quiet up there in front of everyone. Then Mr.s Natialie pulled each student up and shared a little something about them. Before the graduation Mrs. Nataile had sat down with each kid and asked them all the same 19 questions, and also called each parent and asked them what they think makes their little one special. So at the graduation she pulled each student up and read their answers and ours to everyone, she also told something that she remembered about each of them.

Here's Carlies Answers:
1. Favorite Super Hero/Princess? : Cinderella

Somethings My Parent Think:

~ Carlie loves to play dress up, shes very girly, and wants to be a Princess.
~ Carlie is very responsible and takes care of her own fish.
~ Carlie is very creative and imaginative and is a great story teller.
~ Carlie is a great big sister, she is the oldest and has twin siblings that she helps take care of.

Somethings My Teacher Thinks:

~ Carlie was a great addition to our prescholl and instantly fit in with other students, it was as if she had always been part of our cclass.
~ Carlie is very honest and blunt which is great. The first time she played with the costumes with the class, she told me that she thought that it was dumb that there was only one pair of dress up shoes. I told her she was absolutely right and ended up buying two more pairs(which delighted all the other girls)

Aflter Mrs. Natalie talked about all the kids we watched a video she had made of there year(that failed to play a few times!) Mrs. Natile was a awsome teacher for Carlie and after seeing all she has put into following the students changes and progess I am so happy that we put Carlie into her School. Carlie will be going to her next year and I cant wait to see how much she learns next year! We can't think Mrs. Natalie enough for being such a great teacher!

Yesterday was one of the nicest days we have had in a little while so we Grandma and Grandpa Westbroek decided to have a picnic on there back porch. Carlie was so excited when we got there becuase Grandpa had the Jungle Pool set up for her to splash around in. Carlie took one step in and that was enough for her, she doesnt like to get cold. Her cousin Mika and Rylin had no problem jumping in and out of the pool they had a blast.



After we had Burgers it was time for Corie and Cody to test out the water. They didn't seem to mind the cold water on there legs too much but they werent about to sit down . Cody loved to throw the balls out of the pool and making you go and get them. Corie figured out how to climb up the slide and bouce on it so thats where she sat for the rest of the time.

Here, I'll show you how to do this!


Catch!
