This past week Carter was promoted from Kindergarten to first grade. There was a big program, which I really think is silly to do anyway, but I won't go into that - I mean I didn't get some fake diploma when I left first grade... There were a lot of songs, a dvd of the past year and recited poems about kindergarten. Carter had a speaking part, which he was pretty happy about. He spoke very loud into the microphone so everyone could hear and did a great job with his lines. What I will miss about Kindergarten is his teacher. I loved his teacher. Kamryn had her and I hope Mason will have her too. She has helped us so much this year with Carter and gave him more personalized attention than I would have expected. She really cares about her students and helping them do well. Carter had a hard time when it came to testing. His knowledge is there, but getting it out was more of a process. She took the time to redo his tests with him to help his scores show what he really knows. I just hope our first grade teacher will just as patient and caring.
Just a word on Kamryn's teacher. She is another fabulous teacher. Kamryn had her in 2nd grade and again for 3rd. Miss F. is fun, caring, and exciting to her students. I think Kamryn would love to be a teacher just like her. We will miss her too next year.

Oh I just hope and pray we get good teachers. I had some really bad ones and I think it makes such a difference when kids like their teachers.
