Star Graduate ★

It was only one year ago that we celebrated Gavin graduating preschool! Here we are again, only this time celebrating him graduating Pre-Kindergarten! We couldn't be more thrilled for this grand milestone, and such proud parents of our little boy!

We were asked that all graduates wear white from head-to-toe. Can I just say how almost-impossible it is to find white shorts for a 5-year old BOY! Lucky for me, I could count on my favorite ~ Ralph Lauren store. We got our little guy all studded out,

Grabbed quite a few family photographs,

Then, off we went to the Mummer's Museum
for a celebratory graduation!

Their little American Theme Graduation was the cutest, and all the littles did such an amazing performance! Certainly made their proud parents smile... and cry happy tears!

Gavin practiced really hard and couldn't wait to say his speech,

"We Pledge our Allegiance to the Best Country on Earth!"

Despite such a large crowd, he looked at his mama and said his speech like such a big boy! I am such a proud mommy, and his daddy is too!

They continued singing their little hearts out, and did a few moves that were cuter than ever!

When they announced each of the Pre-K graduates, I couldn't help but think of Gavin's first five years flash before my eyes. He has grown into such a handsome little man, and I can only anticipate what it will be like to watch him grow throughout the upcoming years!

Handing his mama a rose,

and his diploma to his daddy!

We are so proud of you, Gavin!

We captured this unforgettable moment
with just a few more family photo's!

And a little huddle with some of his best pre-kindy pals!

But the graduation celebration continued as we headed out the door to treat our family and friends to brunch. Then, my little star opened quite a few well-earned gifts for all his hard work in Pre-K!

Aside from all the Lego's he scored, and the Lego Pirates of the Carribean Wii game, my favorite gift to him was this Dr. Seuss 'Oh, the Places We'll Go'. I pre-ordered months in advance because its the perfect book for him to read throughout all his future milestones. We wrote a sweet little message inside the cover in hopes Gav will reflect on it throughout his lifelong journeys!

Gavin, you amaze us every.single.day!
We look forward to all your milestones to come...

And our journey together at Waldron Mercy Academy

in just a few short months!
