Thanks to Nicholas' "best friend" Diamond at Park Hill Preschool,we dealt with a minor reality breakdown when Nicholas confronted me with the question, "Mommy, why did Diamond say I'm stupid and not going to kindergarten next year?" So, after a long discussion, we eventually had an excited Nicholas who will attend "summer camp at Main Street School" and who will start "Kindergarten Prep" in the fall....(phew, crisis diverted!)
Poppie joined us for the afternoon of Nicholas' last day at Park Hill Preschool. Nicholas was so proud of himself getting off the bus that day. He turned to his bus driver on the last step and said, "Bye Ted. I'll miss you! Drive safely!"
Poppie brought us all out for a special ice cream, just like my Papa used to do on our last day of school. Nicholas chose the ice cream stand, telling Poppie, "You will love Big Dip because they have a giant chocolate and vanilla twist on top of the building and that's your favorite!"

Wow - nice save, Momma! Sounds like a tough question, but a great response. Good job on crisis aversion! I can't believe he graduated pre-k already, though!!! Congratulations to you all! <3
You decided to wait a year to send him to K? That's good, imo!! :) He's as smart as a whip, that boy of yours!!!
