Me, My Thoughts, and I: My Wish...

...for you is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there gettin' where your gettin' to
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this is my wish.

My little girl is now a proud Kindergarten Graduate! Her kindergarten class at St. James Day School in Greenville, MS held it's graduation program last night. While we weren't able to attend, her name was in the program & we had our own little party here in Beaumont last night. We talked about going back & letting her participate in it, but weren't sure that would help the moving forward process. We talked about it a few times & went with our gut feelings & decided to have a little celebration here.

She was very excited to have a day all about her! We took her out to eat...her choice was CiCi's Pizza and then we went for Icee's afterwards. Love the simplicity of it!! I found a pink, sparkly graduation hat for her to wear. She thought that was just fabulous! We gave her a little silver necklace that has a shooting star charm with the word "Dream" on it. She also got a stuffed doggy wearing a graduation cap & a hot pink light up ring that also has a graduation cap on it.

I can't believe my little girl will be in 1st grade in the fall! Time sure does fly! She is growing & changing ever day. She is a very independent, confident social butterfly. I can't wait to see all that she accomplishes as she continues to grow up. However, I long to keep her this age forever. Since I know I can't do that, I'll settle for cherishing the memories of this day in my heart & holding her hand for as long as she lets me!
