Benji's class had a "commencement" ceremony to celebrate the great year they've had together. The parents sat in tiny chairs while the children filed in (to the classic graduation music) and sat on the carpet in front. Then each child came up to the podium in turn and the teachers played a slideshow that showed a photo from the beginning of the year, a photo from right now, and a list of information about the child. Then each teacher shook hands with the child and he or she received a "graduation certificate."
Benji's announcement was as follows:
"This is our friend, Benji Moshiashwili. He has worked hard and learned a lot this year. His favorite color is yellow and his favorite food is cheese. His favorite preschool activity is 'centers.' When he grows up, he wants to be: a man."
He was very proud of himself, as you can see from the photo below. I was very weepy. Where did my baby go? I'm so proud of my big boy.
