James is Growing Up

My little boy is growing up! James graduated from PreK yesterday. I was so tickled by how important it was to him (which made it very important for mommy too). He practiced by humming the music and shaking hands with anyone that would practice graduating with him. Lots of fun. He is embarking on a new chapter of life - elementary school!

Here are some pictures of my little James that is growing up every time I turn around.

He's so handsome! How can he be graduating from Kinder already? It's hard to believe!
