Carsen's End of School Party!!





WOW!!! I can't believe that first grade is already over!! My how time flies!! Carsen has had such a great year this year. His first Grade teacher Mrs. Walker was such a wonderful teacher. She and Carsen fit so well together. She runs a tight ship in her classroom and Carsen loves that!!! The thing I loved the most about first grade was watching Carsen totally transformed into a "Big Kid". By the end of the year he was writing full paragraphs, reading chapter books, and doing word problems in math. You really get a chance to see your children develop in the first grade. It is like nothing I have seen before. The mommy in me looks at him and still sees a baby and I think that is God's little gift just for mommies because I know that he is no longer a baby. He is growing into a little gentleman. At his party the teacher gave out awards to the children for what she remembers about them throughout the year. Carsen got the Creative Genius award for all of the little projects he put together at Creative Station center!! As you can see by his plaque in the picture above he is "creative". The party was lots of fun the kids got aprons to paint with and made ice cream sundaes to eat. Overall, first grade was a hugh success!! Carsen, Mommy and Daddy are so proud of the little boy that you have grown into. You keep a smile on our faces daily. I know that God has such great plans for you and Daddy and I are so grateful to be your parents. We love you!!!
