Time to say goodbye.

Yesterday was a very sad day in our home.


Time to say goodbye to First United Methodist Preschool and start preparing for kindergarten in a couple of months. Hard to believe it is over (at least for now)... This school has been a part of our lives since the kids first day in Arizona. I will never forget it... We were driving to Arizona from Orange County on our way to our new home and outside of downtown Phoenix my cell phone rang and it was Mrs Norris saying they had an opening in the preschool and would love to have Miss M join the class... We were over there the very next day signing up. And we have been there every year since. Miss M finished Pre-K there and Miss A had her 3 year class and Pre-K there.




We have loved all of our moments and made so many good friends and memories. We know we will keep in touch with our friends and see them when time allows, but as with all change it is still hard. Yesterday was such an emotional day. Mrs D was just as emotional. We presented her with a beautiful butterfly quilt that Mum made. Miss A's class was known as the Brave Butterflies so it was fitting... and just beautiful ! Thanks Mum for all of your hard work! Another mom also put togeteher a mini yearbook for Mrs D and for all of us who wanted one.. yes, of course I bought one! :-) It was a great day and we are excited for Mrs D as she moved on to retirement with her husband... she deserves it! And we are excited for Miss A as she begins a new chapter in her life... We will always hold warm memories of our time at FUMCG!






The tears are beginning when she sees the first buttterfly on her quilt...


she was blown away by how beautiful it was.. she had to lay it out to see the whole thing.



She wanted to get a group picture with "her kids" and the brave butterfly quilt... She will treasure it always... thanks again Mom!

Time for one final "hug for the road".... Thanks to Mrs Norris, Mrs. Disch, and Mrs. Stadel for a wonderful 3 years!!!!
