Collin has absolutely LOVED kindergarten - I think especially because he loved his teacher, Mrs. St. Martin. The last week of school, Collin got to go on his first field trip. He went to the Como Zoo. He was SO excited to go on this trip. I think especially to ride the bus. He of course got to go with his great friend Connor - I'm not sure what these two are going to do without each other if they are not in the same class next year!
On Collin and Connor's last day of school we decided to have a little "summer is here" party. Cole and Ella worked very hard all afternoon baking cupcakes and decorating the house. Mommy and Kelly took it up a notch and even put ballons on the car and wrote on the windows! Collin and Connor thought they were pretty cool when we picked them up at school. I'm so glad that they will still let us do this ridiculous stuff without being embarrassed....sometimes I really hope that he never changes!
Like I said, Collin has absolutely loved kindergarten. He has come so far...counting to 100, doing math, making friends, reading, becoming so independent. We REALLY are so proud of all that he has learned and accomplished. Mrs. St. Martin only had great things to say to about him. She said he was a great student, a good listener, a hard worker and a considerate friend. He continues to give us so many reasons to be proud of what a great kid he is becoming. When I asked him what he was most excited about for 1st grade he said, "harder math". This is funny because his friend Connor said he was most scared about harder math - so somebody must have tipped them off to what 1st grade is all about. When I asked Collin what he was most scared about he said, "not having Mrs. St. Martin", but he made sure to add in - but only for a few days.
