Gertrude is a Graduation Girl

Gert graduated from Early Childhood (formerly known as Early Hilechood) yesterday. It was a sweet, adorable and emotionally charged ceremony. The kids marched in, sang "I'm Bringing Home a Baby Bumblebee," played "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" on bells they made out of plastic cups and sang "Zoom Gollah Gollah" which, despite my poor spelling, was one of their favorite songs.


Gert gets her certificate.


Gert enjoys the spoils of graduation. Cake, cookies and punch.


She can't go back. But she still has her memories.


No academic slouch herself, Matilda managed to win just about every academic award offered to 6th grade students. Here she sits with her haul, no doubt starting the first few lines of her future Nobel Prize address.
