Tyler had so much fun during the end of the year activities at school. They had Field Day and a really fun end of the year party with a Hawaiian theme! I'm so thankful my parents were able to watch Brady so I could attend the party! All of the students made beautiful leis and enjoyed "volcano" sundaes! They also took turns putting a lei on their teacher as they left the classroom to go to PE. Each lei had some of her favorite candy, as well as a photo of the student & a gift card. It was so, so sweet, and I'm so glad I was there to see it! :-)
Tyler brought a vase home full of soil a week or so ago, and we've been watering it daily. We were all so excited when his seeds started to grow! We still have his plant from his Mother's Day event at preschool years ago, and I love seeing both plants side by side. :-) Tyler got a special "Class Author" certificate at the end of the year, and when he answered questions about first grade, he said his favorite thing to eat at lunch was cheese sticks. :-) His favorite thing to play at recess was tag, and his favorite things at school were recess and art. Some of his best friends in class were Noah S., Grant, Caleb, Jackson, Armondo, and Caydence. :-) When he was the Star of the Week, his classmates wrote sweet notes to him that his teacher put together in a book for Tyler to keep. His classmates described him as being nice, cool, handsome, funny, and intelligent. And they wrote that he follows the three R's at school! So sweet! :-)
We can't believe that Tyler's first grade year has come to an end. He had such a great year, and we couldn't be happier with his school! We are so thankful that he had such a wonderful teacher this year (he has been so, so lucky to have such great teachers three years in a row!) He has told us that he is going to miss Mrs. K so, so much next year! She was always so sweet to him, and he learned so much this year! We are so amazed at his reading and writing skills, and love how creative he is. We especially loved the warm up worksheets he did this year (we learned so much about Tyler through those worksheets and will keep them forever!) and we loved all of his teacher's thoughtful notes to him when he shared his thoughts and ideas. We will always be thankful to Mrs. K for making Tyler's first grade year so wonderful! :-)

When Tyler told us that he wanted to enter the yearbook decorating contest for the second year in a row, we told him we thought that was a great idea because he's a wonderful artist. However, we tried to delicately warn him that it was very unlikely that he would win the contest two years in a row. (He won as a kindergartner and his yearbook cover was shown on the back of the yearbook!) Well, it turns out he won this year too! Last year, we didn't find out he had won until we saw the yearbook. This year, back in November he told us, "I won the yearbook competition. They showed my picture on the morning announcements. I dabbed twice." :-) We are so proud of him for creating a colorful and creative picture to show "Healthy Huskies" (his school's mascot!) :-)
We love our soon-to-be second grader!! :-)
