Our big boy graduated from Pre-K at El Camino Preschool on Friday! Yes, I cried… several times. I can’t believe Isaiah is going to kindergarten. He looked so big in his cap and gown. We will surely miss his wonderful teacher Ms. Debbie and all his friends. We will miss this amazing school with the best teachers, a great director (Ms. Heike Burton), and plenty of room to roam. Ms. Debbie has the patience of a saint and has such a special way with kids. They adore her and look up to her. She never needs to raise her voice. She’s calm cool and collected at all times, yet, she gets down and silly with them! She has a love for children, learning, and art that is so inspiring. Isaiah spent his days here learning, imagining and making friends… catching bugs, watching caterpillars turn into butterflies, being a super hero, astronaut, dinosaur, listening to stories, singing, dancing, climbing trees, scraping knees, and dreaming up adventures. He came home with an armful of crafts, holes in the knees of his jeans and plenty of dirt in his shoes every day. That’s what I call fun! It took at least 10 minutes to leave when it was pick up time because Isaiah always wanted to get every last second of being there… playing on the play structures, the boat, the playhouses, the kitchen, the stages, the telephone booth, the cars and tricyles on the road… this school has endless avenues for kids to role play. He would climb the tree outside almost every time while his sister would pick flowers in the field out front. He couldn’t wait to go to school each day! Thank you El Camino Preschool for a priceless experience that we will never forget!
