Such Busy, Busy Bees

Sadly, the school year is drawing to a close.  I can't believe my baby girl is almost done with Kindergarten!  Where has the time gone?  Where has my baby girl gone?  In her place is this articulate young lady who can read, write, and do arithmetic. 

To finish out the year, Ms. Burris treated us to a play about life in Korea and the Burris Bees class.  She said that every time they got a new student in class, they would run through all of this information to get the new student acclimated to Korea. The play was really cute and pointed out the similarities between the US and Korea, but also some of the differences.  Holly's part was a "Korean student" and her line explained that they learned to read and do math in school. 

After the play, we had Kindergarten graduation.  Ms. Burris had something great to say about each student and what they taught her.  For Holly it was that she is a miniature version of Ms. Burris, but in a good way that reminded her that it's okay to be silly with the kids.  I'm sure somewhere, Ms. Burris's mom is laughing that the mother's curse is already being exacted upon her daughter. 

We made it through Kindergarten in 3 classrooms, 3 teachers, and 2 different countries.  And Holly is already making plans for first grade.  I keep hoping maybe there's a Sister Celine in her future....   because bless her little heart, she's also a mini-me.
