Abby headed to school that morning with one week left of first grade.
Uncle Cory drove up as soon as his overnight shift ended to make it to graduation in time. We didn't tell Ella and he surprised her by walking into her classroom before the ceremony. I only wish I had the video of the look on her face when she saw him. :) Abby got to leave her class to be there for the ceremony too!

Ella's teacher, Mrs. K handed our character badges and shared a trait she thought described each student. Ella's was kindness. Mrs. K shared about the way Ella loves and cares for others. Ella is quick to think about what others need or how she can help them. All things we continue to see growing in her heart at home too!
We love Mrs. K and had a great year with her!
As we left school, she looked up at me and whispered, "I feel really special today, Mommy!" You are very special, Ella. We love you so so much and are proud of you! Kindergarten, here we come!
