Evan is Growing Up! And Pressley is Too!

This weekend and next, our focus is Evan. Our younger grandson, is growing up! Friday was his Pre-K graduation! He has attended the Frazer Center since he was a year old. Before that, he stayed with me--and I enjoyed every minute with him. That seems like yesterday, but here he is graduating--in cap and gown!
Just like the big kids, as each of their names were called, they went up to receive their diplomas.

In addition to their diplomas, they each received a small graduation bear. How cute is that?



Here Evan is showing off his little bear, and the autograph bear Poppy and GranNan gave him.


During the ceremony, they shared many things they had learned in Pre-K. They sang the spelling of each number up to ten, they counted to 20 in both English and French, and recited several poems. It was SO cute! Evan has really learned a lot at the Frazer Center, and I can't believe it's time now for him to move on to Kindergarten. He'll be going to public kindergarten in the fall.
On Saturday, Amy and Corin hosted a wedding shower for their friends, Jim and Laurie. They will be married in June. We got to have Evan and Pressley for the evening and overnight. We took them to Toys R Us and let them each choose a small toy. But our main purpose in going, was to look for the game Hi Ho Cherry-O. Their Mommy and Aunt Beth used to love that game. We found the game, and it was a hit, but Pressley had chosen a little "Princess" cell phone. We got such a kick out of watching her with that phone! She talked and talked--and it was hard to believe it was just pretend! She told her "friend" what a LOVELY time she had at their party. It was too cute!
After taking them to church and meeting their Mommy and Daddy, and having lunch together, we had to say our goodbys for now. Boy, does it seem quiet around here, but what a fun weekend we had!
