MDO End of Year and Preschool Graduation

We are so thankful for the wonderful Mother's Day Out and Preschool programs at Northwest Hills United Methodist Church.  This was a great year and each of the kids were blessed to have loving and talented teachers.

Each year the kids perform a selection of their songs at the End of the Year program.  Gambit's class was up first and he, like many of the other one-year-olds, he was a bit more interested in checking out the crowd rather than performing.  

Reagan was much less tentative than her two-year-old peers.  In fact, she ate up the opportunity to be in the spotlight.  This picture only begins to tell the story but I assure you she earned her title as the family ham. 

Rylie's enthusiasm for singing and worship fill my heart with joy.  While the photo quality of these shots is not the best, I love the story of her movement and the fact that she had to step out of her place on the stage in order to get her groove on.  Go girl!  

Thanks to the creativity of our music teach Ms. Ana, the graduating four year old classes did a hip rendition of the itsy-bitsy-spider.  The song started with the typical sing-songy version and then haulted with the record scratching sound while the kids reached for their glasses and struck this pose.  They continued on to entertain the whole crowd with their funky moves and shades to the Go Fish version. 

And now for the part I can hardly believe.  My Rylie Hannah Lees graduates!!  Kindergarten here she comes! 

Rylie with the program director, Ms. Jennifer, who is amazing and leads the great group of teachers to deliver a truly fabulous program for the kids.
