While she may not start Kindergarten for a couple of months, our little baby is growing up nonetheless.

Felicia “graduated” from preschool today, after three fantastic years at San Jose Parents Participating Nursery School (SJPPNS), where Jocelyn has also gone to preschool for two years earlier this decade. She’s a lot older than she was when she started in 2006 (as pictured in her green shirt from Day 1).

Of course, it was also a graduation of sort for us, as parents. David spent three years on the Board of the co-op preschool, managing their finances and helping at the top level of leadership. And while we’ll spend time in her Kindergarten class, it won’t be anything like all of those days in the classroom, cooking fun snacks, crafting messy art projects, and digging in the sand pond.

Good luck to all of our preschool friends! … We know from our first time through that these friendships endure, and will renew as our kids move through the world together!
