Caden Kindergarten

Caden had the most amazing kindergarten year! His teacher is beyond incredible. If you haven't recently had a child go through kindergarten, or teach in an elementary school, you would be amazed at what they learn. I swear they learn things that we were learning in first and second grade! Caden's favorite things about school were recess, PE, choice time, and discovery reading where they read nonfiction books. He is so social and made lots of really awesome buddies! We couldn't have asked for a better year to start Caden's official schooling!:)

Field Day was always my favorite day of the year when I was in elementary school. My parents were always there and we carried on that tradition with Caden. Our little family had a great day watching Caden and all of his classmates loving field day!

Little man ready for action!

I made Caden's teacher a book like I did for Andie's teachers. Here is the cover for the kindergarten book:)

Caden's class had a celebration of their learning in mid-May. Justin took off the afternoon to come to this special event:) 

Kindergarten Poem

"I Dreamed..."

Sorry the video is sideways, I turned my DSLR camera so I'm not sure how to flip it. You can see that our sweet, sensitive boy tears up a bit at the end of the song. which brings a noticeable sniffle from me!

Fun with friends at the photo booth!

Justin was talking with another parent so Graham filled in the family shot:)
