Erik's Preschool Graduation

May 20th was Erik's preschool graduation. I just have to share these photos because they make us smile. Erik went to preschool at the Beck Recreation Center in Aurora. His teachers were Miss Shila and Miss Stacey. They did a great job and he really liked preschool (sometimes even trying new foods at snack time!)

For their little graduation celebration, the teachers planned a presentation where the kids sang songs with lots of actions. It was a 50s Ice Cream Shop theme, and so all the boys wore white t-shirts with jeans and the girls wore dresses. The teachers were wearing poodle skirts.

Anyway, Erik is not one for lots of singing and dancing. Most of the other kids were into it, but this picture pretty much sums up what Erik thought of the program:

Yes, he seemed bewildered yet simultaneously bored by it all. He was really looking forward to the ice cream and cake that were to follow, so he was probably wondering how much more of this insanity he would have to sit through in order to get his "plain vanilla" ice cream. Honestly, have we not all felt like this at times?
