Lilly's Graduation

Lilly's kindergarten graduation was a tear-jerker for me. I was so proud of her for having a great year, but I was incredibly sad at the thought that my baby is growing up.

She walked up first to receive her medal and her diploma.  The necklace medal was inscribed with the word kindness, because that's the class award she won.  Cute.

Grancy and Jonas drove down a day early and spent the afternoon with Sophia and Lilly at the beach.  After we all went to graduation and the reception which followed Grancy and Jonas played at our house for the afternoon. I let Sophia stay home from school.  Lucky girl.

So, Lilly finished up school the week before Memorial Day which meant that she had a couple of weeks of down time until Sophia finished school for the summer.  So...at the beginning of June Lilly got to spend a few days at Grancy and Big Daddy's house all by herself (without any of us). Jonas kept her company. She had a wonderful time, but really missed me. That's what she said when she got home. I missed her so much too. More tear-jerking moments.

Lilly couldn't stop smiling!!  

Her friend Allie is all smiles too.

Wish I hadn't been crying 10 minutes earlier.

Cookies!  Yum.

Grancy and I met 1/2 way in between Va Bch and Northern VA so I could pick Lilly up from her vacation.  We spent a super fun day at Kings Dominion.  We mostly stayed in the water park.  Lilly spent a lot of time swimming in the wave pool.  Don't have any pictures...bummer.
