Ian’s Kindergarten class had a concert and (kind of) open house in lieu of a traditional graduation ceremony.

Walking in with his class:

The last song totally made me tear up.  Each child stood before the remaining students, waved good-bye, and walked off the stage alone.  There was an entire class that went BEFORE Ian’s class but they let a little girl from his class go first before everyone because she cried each time they practiced the song.  🙁

Ian’s BFF and bus-riding-buddy waving good-bye.  They aren’t in the same class this year and ride different buses.  🙁
