Blake has officially graduated from Kindergarten and is a big 1st grader now. Ashlyn and I went to his little graduation ceremony and party at school on Thursday and then Friday was their last day. I thought he'd be pretty excited about moving up,but when I picked him up from school he was trying his hardest not to cry. When I asked him what was wrong he said, "I'm afraid I'll bust the next grade Mom." After clarification, he was afraid that 1st grade was going to be too hard and that he'd fail. After I informed him of the stuff they do in 1st grade - all of which he can already do - he was realived and then only worried about not getting to see Mrs. DeBarry. Again I reassured him that it would be fine he'd have a new teacher and that he'd pass his old classroom every morning to go to his new class so whenever he wanted to say hi to Mrs. DeBarry he could. All is well and he is now excited about 1st grade.
