Officially A Fifth Grader

Seems like only yesterday she was climbing on the bus--with a broken arm--and headed to fourth grade.

But, I can't complain at all. She has had a wonderful fourth grade year. She made so many new friends, and got to stay in class with best friend Clara. She consistently made all A's and 1 B.  She was asked to be apart of a special blog, and her writing was often praised and commented on. She started learning to play recorder and was chosen to talk to the school board. There were weekly play dates at home and great field trips at school. 

And, most of all we love her teacher Mrs. Mullenaux. And, we get to keep her!!!  Mrs. Mullenaux will be back at school mid-October with her class. She left May 22 (Thomas' Graduation day) to have her baby!

We are so proud of our super star student and while I will treasure all of my summer vacation days with Gracie, we look forward to all the exciting things she will do in 5th grade.  Top of the school!

 **Yes, I made her that shirt. Yes, it was last night. Yes, I stayed up until 10 getting it done. Hey, can't break tradition!**
