Yeah, I can’t say I’d ever heard of a “kindergarten graduation” until I came State-side, but maybe I just wasn’t hanging around people with kids?  I don’t know – it seems a little silly, but it helps her see how much she accomplished this past year, which keeps her excited about school.  I’m very uncertain of how well she would’ve done in a normal school environment, so I’m EXTREMELY glad we went the online schooling route.  Shoutout to Connections Academy for having a fantastic system that’s actually flexible to different learning styles, and a big thank you to Grandma D, who was Kia’s primary learning coach, and had the difficult task of keeping Kia focused on her schoolwork all year!

My shirt says “Trust Me, I’m The Doctor.”  Please note, “The Doctor,” not “a doctor.”  Important difference.  😉  Stacy’s wearing a Mountain shirt with a green- and orange-winged faerie, not that you can see it.  Just trust me – it’s there.  What you CAN see, is Arwyn’s stars-and-stripes butterfly, and Kia’s very shiny star-shirt; that’s how many gold stars she got from school this year!  Or something like that.  🙂
