Kindergarten, Done

Somehow we made it through a whole school year.

In many ways this year was a long one as Charlie adjusted to his environment,

Yet it flew by at the same time.

And now we have a first grader in the house!

A couple of days before the end of school, Charlie brought home a collection of the artwork he'd completed.  I was impressed by these two!

Charlie was super excited to decorate a card for his teacher.  I forgot to take a picture of the card, which had a drawing of Charlie and his teacher hugging.  I did remember to take a picture of the envelope, which I thought he did a good job on.

 Charlie was really excited to go to school on the last day.  This picture might not show that, but he had talked about the last day of school for a couple of weeks.  The day before the last day was their class party.  So he was still a little sugar-crashed the next morning.  :)

His teacher gave them each a cute little bear as a goodbye gift.  Charlie was excited to take a silly picture with it.

The next day was the last day for the rest of the school.  Charlie's class was invited back for the end-of-year parade.  Charlie flew the flag he'd created at the class party and carried a pinwheel.  

He likes being in parades.

 Overall, I think Charlie had a good year in Kindergarten.

Next year he may attend another school that is starting a program for autistic children.

Or maybe he'll be back in the same school.

Either way, first grade will be an experience too!
