As school comes to an end we get to see all that the kids accomplished through the year. We started the activities with a breakfast and awards ceremony for Ashley. Ashley was so excited to have us there, and loved showing off Brice to all of her friends. I felt bad for the little guy as she toted him around as if he were her doll., but he loved it and she loved being the big sister. As her teacher handed out the awards Ashley's was almost the last one and it fit her perfectly, she got the Leadership award. Her teacher later said that she could always count on Ashley to lead the class if she had to step out, that Ashley never had any problem telling people what to and not to do. It sounded just like Ashley at home "my little mama" as we call her, she loves telling her brothers what to and not to do. She had a great year in school this year and excelled in everything!! We are so proud of her and love watching her grow and grasp new concepts. Her mind is amazing.
Watching my babies graduate from kindergarten is always a little emotional. Ethan was so cute and did such a great job getting his diploma. We were worried at the beginning of the year with him being the youngest in his class, but he did great throughout the year. The kids also received an award in class like Ashley and Ethan's was just perfect for him too. He got the Carefree award. We laughed so hard knowing that it was his teachers way of nicely stating Ethan's calm, collected and SLOW way of doing things, like he has nothing else to do that day and no problems or worries weighing him down, it is probably his way of dealing with his sisters leadership skills. We love him so much and are so proud to be his parents, he makes us laugh and our hearts happy.

What sweet kids. How is that they are getting older so fast, and we never seem to age? It's amazing how far we've all come.
Ethan, We are so proud of your graduating. It's just the beginning folks.
Looking at this picture of you Jamie is like taking a step back in time.
