Friday: Isaac's last day of school

He left the morning as a Kindergartner

.
(And the first day of school, for comparison.)

At 9:30 it was graduation time.  Ben caught them lined up and ready to come in.

The teachers said some nice things and then the kids went through the alphabet.  There were three kids to a letter and they said the letter and what it stood for.  Isaac's N was super clear.

He got his diploma.  It had a nice picture on it with an "I want to be an E.R. doctor" [when I grow up].  There were also pictures of the kids on the back wall...both of Isaac's pictures turned out very well.

Time for some pictures!

And just like that, we have a 1st grader! 

Afterwards we went back to the bike shop.  The person that really knows what she is doing said Isaac was ready to try pedals!  He tried a few loops, but the loop in the store isn't all that big and he couldn't get going fast enough, have enough time to get his feet on the pedals, and not run into the bikes in the middle all at the same time.  I think we'll try a few more times and if it isn't quite working perhaps we'll just get the bike and try it at home with a bit more room.
