Morgan ate all of her bagel and bite of fresh oranges at breakfast. At lunch Morgan ate all of her bread, cheese slices, cherries, and green beans. I also gave her thirds on pickles, because I know she loves them. We've only had them a few times, but she always wants more. That was her graduation food treat! : )
Morgan has been very excited about all of her graduation decorations throughout the morning. Gary's nephew, Steve, stopped in for a couple minutes this morning and she had to tell him about graduating and going to big girl school. Also while Steve was here she and the other kiddos were using him as a May pole-going around and around him.
Morgan, Aaron and Emily were all sitting at the table looking at and reading books both independently and to each other. You should have seen the huge stack of books they had on the table. There were only a couple left in the book rack.
Morgan and Joslyn were playing with the dolls in the blog this morning. Morgan was putting her baby to bed and singing, our "night-night baby" song, feeding her and taking to her.
Morgan was sitting on the balance beam deal with her legs hanging down into the little hole in the back. Emily was walking around by the igloo and Morgan told her, "come on Emily, it's time to go to Rosauers!" She joined her and away they 'went' to "get some groceries".
Morgan put one of the scarves over her head and around her shoulders and told Emily and Joslyn she was a "super hero!"
Alayna and her parents came by to visit for about half-an-hour today and that was fun for us and her. She acted like she hadn't been gone at all-didn't miss a beat. It was great. One of the things she did was put on an apron and go over to Morgan and ask her to "tie it" for her. Morgan must have messed with it trying to tie it for about five minutes. She had it twisted around and around, which actually did help it stay on for a little bit!
We will miss our dear Morgan, but also know from experience that it is much better to have them transition when they are just starting to become bored rather than wait until they are frustrated and have extremely outgrown us. She has all of the essential skills she needs (and then some) to be successful at her new school. She will absolutely love not having the babies and toddlers interfering with her experiences and play. I am sure she will also love the bigger kid activities that her new program will be able to provide, especially having more regular and longer outside times throughout the winter!
Thank you for your trust and teamwork throughout these past three years. You have taught us many things about your precious daughter and listened when we also had information to share about either her or child development or guidance in general.
Please keep in touch. We are SUPER glad that you are Lady Griz fans so we can see you all fairly regularly throughout the winter. We always have a time period of withdrawal after a graduation and that will help minimize it a little.
Love you guys!

12/27/12
Morgan ate one bite of peaches and all of her Cheerios at breakfast. We are just winging it with meals for these two days, since there are only two days, fewer children and quite a few leftovers. At lunch she ate all of her baked beans and French bread, about half of her potato salad and a taste of broccoli salad.
We were taking with the kiddos about what they got for Christmas. Morgan told us, "I got hockey stuff and a car set and a doodle. That's everything I needed!"
She enjoyed reading books first thing for longer than usual because of having less kiddos and several of those not coming until later than usual.
Morgan didn't asked about Kenzie being gone at all this morning. She also played by herself much of the morning (in the box, in the igloo, behind the igloo or just in a different part of the room). When she was behind the igloo she had a couple animals with her there and was playing with them and talking to them.
Morgan enjoyed playing with the Fisher Price little people house most of the time we were in the first back room. She let Joslyn join her briefly a couple times, but was relieved when Joslyn moved on to something else.
Morgan played the xylophone and sang for a few minutes the decided to "take it for a walk" like her pet.
After the kiddos switched to the other back room, Morgan and Joslyn got busy "making presents" for each other.
