Emma's celebration of life

Emma had her celebration of life at Montessori yesterday.

Since she is a summer birthday she got to do it early. We made a photo collage of photos from birth to (almost 5) and she brought it in the share with the class. She also helped make muffins to take in to share for a treat. Bryan and I got to go and watch her walk around the sun 5 times and share things with her classmates about her life from the time of her birth. At the end, Ms. Laticia checked her arms, legs and brain to make sure that they were all ready to turn 5. It was a wonderful celebration of Miss Emma. I love the way they do it at Montessori. Ms. Laticia said she remembers doing it when she was in Montessori and I have pictures of when I did it. We came home and had Kindergarten paper work in our mail box. WOW, how did this happen so fast. Happy early birthday Emma.

A funny little story- on the way to school on Thursday (the day of Emma's celebration), I was in my workout clothes. Emma said "Mom, you can't wear your jogging outfit to my celebration, you need to look pretty." I said "oh, I am going to go home and get ready, what should I wear?" She replied, "a shirt." I wouldn't want to embarrass her- he he. It was really cute. Oh and I wore pants too. :-)
