Garrett's Preschool Graduation

Garrett graduated from St. Andrews Academy on May 23, 2018. 

His teachers were Ms. Morgan & Ms. Christin. He loved his teachers so much! I'm so grateful that Garrett had the opportunity to attend this preschool. It was held at a local Methodist church about 5 minutes from our home and is a fantastic preschool! 

Along with preschool curriculum they had Pastor Scott come to teach the kids bible stories once per week. They also had a music teacher that taught them music stuff once a week too. We even attended church there one Sunday so we could see Garrett perform the 66 Books of the Bible song they learned in preschool. Pretty sure I couldn't tell you all the books of the bible but Garrett knows every single one because of the song they learned in preschool. So crazy!

Garrett's best friends from preschool were Adrian and Nicholas. I hope that he gets to be in kindergarten with at least a couple kids he knew from preschool. I feel like it would help him transition into kindergarten a little better if he knew someone. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Garrett has become such an AMAZING reader! We are currently still reading The Dragon Masters series. They are chapter books that have pictures and he loooves them. And he can read them! On the back they say they are a 2nd grade reading level, which is crazy. But he has really gotten good over the past year. He started reading really simple books last year right before we moved to NC and he has just taken off with reading. Along with the dragon books, he loves reading anything by Dr. Seuss and he also loves the Little Critter books. Oh, and how could I forget? He loves any books about animals and superheroes.

Another thing about Garrett is that he loves learning about animals. We've ordered a couple of the Wild Kratts books from past book orders and he reads them over and over. He also loves to watch the Wild Kratts show on Amazon. It's crazy how many facts he remembers about the animals. Maybe he'll grow up to stuff animals or something someday, haha.

Garrett is also such a great big brother to Brenna. He takes her in his room and plays batman with her. And the funny thing is, is that she loves playing it with him! She also loves to dress up in the superhero capes that Garrett has and run around the house pretending to catch bad guys, ha! They play really well with each other and it's been fun to see their relationship really flourish this past year. 

Garett is such a smart and kind kid. He definitely has his moments of being ornery and cranky, just like anyone I guess, but he has such a good heart and I love our big boy so much! 

Here are some of his preschool pictures:

He couldn't stop playing with his tassle, haha.

Garrett's favorite tree. He always wanted to climb
it in the mornings while we were waiting for the
preschool doors to be unlocked.
