Last Uniform Day of the Year


Photo-A-Day #3353

While Eva won’t graduate from Kindergarten until Tuesday, today was the last day that she needed to wear a uniform. I’ll certainly be taking some last day of Kindergarten photos but since she started the year in her uniform I figured I’d catch a photo of her in her uniform for the last time as a Kindergartner. I had to go back and see her on her very first day of Kindergarten, too. So much has changed in this past year. Most noticeably for me was that she was missing her two front teeth at the beginning of the year. She was reading picture books at the beginning of the year. Now she reads chapter books. She’s still an amazing, happy smart child who loves school and everything to do with school. We couldn’t be prouder of how she has done this year.
