Joshua's 5th Grade Graduation

 Dearest Joshua David, Grace Elizabeth, Faith Olivia, Jacob Samuel, and Jeremiah William-

My boy got himself a 5th grade education!  

August 2015 .... we didn't know what to expect .... we had 5 children ages 5 and younger .... and our oldest was starting kindergarten at a newly built school.  It was hard to let him go that first day of kindergarten as our eyes teared up.  

Today, as our eyes tear up again, Joshua graduates from 5th grade and leaves his elementary school that we've since grown in love with.  ️ 

Joshua's graduation ceremony was at 9:30am .... all siblings, daddy, Grandpa Jim, and I all attended in person (Gigi watched the live video feed since she had to work). 

We thanked all the staff and his teachers over the years in helping to shape Joshua into the young man he's become ....

We are so proud of you little man!  🥰  We can't wait to see what the future holds!  

We cheered for you when you walked across the stage and got your shirt and certificate! 

God is good!  

This afternoon I took Joshua to the 5th grade carnaval outside.  There was an obstacle course, yearbook signing, playground equipment, games, photo table, and a dunk tank.  Joshua, you hit the bullseye and dunked Ms Harrell with your first toss!  Way to go!  I took photos and walked around with you. 

After school, Joshua got cards from his siblings and a gift from the family .... a new Nintendo Switch game.  We had Marco's Pizza and brownies for dinner to celebrate.  

Joshua, I'm so proud of you and all that you've accomplished!  I can't believe you're already in middle school!  I love you so much! 

Happy last day of the 2020-2021 school year!

Sleep tight little ones!

I love you all so much!
