jobs and the praises we have earned.

hooray!

showing our respect.

the obstacles we learned to overcome.

rhythms on a drum.
Q is for all the questions we've asked throughout the
year.

different snacks, several we have tried.

zest. We're ready, have no fear!

Last days in School

It's time to say good-bye
Our year has come to an end.
I've made more
cherished memories
and many more new friends.

I've watched your child learn and
grow
and change from day to day.
I hope that all the things we've
done
Have helped in some small way.

So it's with happy memories
I send
them out the door,
With great hope and expectations
for what next year
holds in store
