Ella's Pre-K Graduation 2011

Last night was Ella's graduation at Premier Learning Academy. They started the ceremony with a song called "God is Bigger" and Ella had a solo part to open the show. :) She was excited but nervous before it started. How cute.



Here it is below...



She was so cute in her cap and gown.




Then the kids in the class who can read were invited up to read a book for the audience. Ella was one of them. Here she is....



Her entire class also signed the alphabet while singing about it. The only unfortunate thing about having a tall kid is she is always in the back :/



Ella getting her diploma :)



She is so proud...






The girls of the graduating class



Yay Ella! She is ready for new adventures at San Tan Elementary this year!



But we are sad for Ella that she has to say goodbye to her best friend Natalie. These girls became so close at school and spent every second playing together.



Ella doesn't really understand that she will likely never see Natalie again or get to play with her anymore. I didn't have the heart to tell her. So we just made sure they said goodbye to each other and gave hugs and took photos.



And Ella said goodbye to her teacher Mrs. Debby. But not for good, cause Ella will pop into PLA a few times this Summer for some playtime and also Ryen will be going to school at PLA for the next two years. Ella loves Mrs. Debby so much and will miss her xo




We are so proud of Ella. She is getting so big way too fast!
