Merrick and I have a proud moment to share with the people we love! He graduated from his first year of preschool with honors this last Tuesday ;) Merrick eagerly awaited the moment he could step foot in school just like his big sisters. And boy did he enjoy every minute of his school days this year! Of course riding a school bus is something he was very much looking forward to experiencing someday as well. Since they don't typically bus children to school in Sad Diego, Merrick is just going to have to suffer by riding to school on his most favorite vehicle, his scooter ;) With a multitude of schools, they consider all children within walking distance from the nearest school. We are all excited about being able to walk and ride bikes everywhere!
Merrick received an award and medal for being the most gifted in the area of curiosity. He is definitely always eager to learn all about his world, and everyone elses for that matter. He is a great conversationalist and loves to ask questions and share his ideas about life freely! It was really neat to watch all of the kids receive their awards and hear all about the areas in which they are gifted by God. Each child is so precious and has special gifts that they do and will forever use in this big world of wonder!
Here is Merrick holding his award and wearing his medal, standing in one of his favorite places to play at preschool. He will definitely miss his wonderful teachers and friends from his first year of school
Ryan and I were lucky enough to get a little special time alone with the graduate a few days prior. We took him to dinner at Cinco de Mayo. He definitely kept us entertained, while eating a family favorite...quesadilla! We are so proud of this little guy! He is an achiever now, and always will be!
