Hannah had been excitedly waiting for the last day of school on Friday.  She even planned what to wear and which hair clip she wanted to put on.  Don’t get me wrong…she does enjoy school, but according to her, she enjoys holidays as well. 🙂  (Don’t we all?)

It would be her last day of school in K1 (Kindergarten 1) and next year, she would be in K2 (Kindergarten 2).  To celebrate, her class had a party with an early Christmas gift exchange for the kids.  Actually, I think she was really looking forward to the gift exchange.

I baked some graham crackers as a last-minute thingy and Hannah and I prepared these little succulents in pots as gifts for her teachers.

I found these cute gift tags which suited the pots, so I downloaded and printed them; and Hannah decorated them.

She helped me arrange the tags in the pot and she insisted on bringing them to class all by herself.  I think these make pretty gifts. 🙂

Later, after school, Hannah told me all about the party, what she ate and what she did.  Then she told me, “Mommy, today was a great day for me!”

Awww…I just love it when the kids are happy like that. 🙂

Last Saturday, we attended the Catechism Graduation Ceremony for the Class of 2014.  Our Ethan had been attending catechism classes every Saturday afternoon for the past year, and this ceremony was just to close the chapter for 2014 before moving forward into 2015 next year.

It was held in the church sanctuary and we were treated to simple performances from each class.

Doesn’t my boy look handsome? 🙂

Anyway, during the ceremony, certificates of achievement were also presented to those who had 100% attendance in catechism, and also those who had great participation in class.  I think Ethan wants to aim for the 100% attendance award next year. 🙂

Hannah too, was excitedly watching the entire ceremony.  She can’t wait to start catechism next year when she will be in the preschool class.
