Day 98: Preschool Graduation

Even though it's not the last day of school yet (that's confusing), we had Camden's preschool graduation ceremony this morning. I've been excited about this all year. When Calen graduated 3 year old preschool in Cape May, it was the cutest little performance I'd ever seen in my LIFE. And here we are, 4 years later, watching our BABY take the last step from little toddler-preschoolerdom to for real elementary school little big kid-dom. No more tiny tots in this house, we have a house full of grade schoolers now.

I can't even. 

So I dropped Cam off at school this morning and walked over to the cafeteria/auditorium to get a good seat for the ceremony. 

Bonus points #1 for getting front row seats. 

And then this huge class of tiny little kids came out. Camden isn't even the shortest in his class, and he's short, they were so little. 

Bonus points #2 for Cam being in the front row on the same side I was sitting on. 

They sang three songs and to my great surprise, Cam actually sang and participated in the hand movements and wasn't screwing around the whole time. He was definitely the most animated of the class which was hysterical and had the whole crowd laughing. 

Bonus points #3 for Cam not singing his death metal version of everything like he does in the car. He actually pretended to be a nice sweet boy and sang nice for once. 

When they handed out the certificates, they waited until their names were called to walk down the steps, in front of the stage to shake the teacher's hands and accept their certificate. In true Camden form, he ran (not walked) to the teachers, shook their hands super violently, and then threw himself into the arms of his third teacher (his favorite) for a hug instead of shaking her hand. 

Then they announced the "preschool class of 2016" and none of the kids really did anything, except Camden, who threw his hands in the air and yelled "YES!!!!" because of course he did, he's Camden. 

On to great things, this one is.
