A Thousand Words Thursday


Today marks DQ's last day of elementary school. The last day at the school she began Kindergarten, 6 years ago. The school I also attended Kindergarten-2nd grade! Her wishes for the last day of school? "Mom, buy me a plain white t-shirt so I can have everyone sign it!" I think we can make that happen!

    Wow...that is so neat that you have both those pictures and that you put them side by side. I am totally stealing this idea. A great scrapbook page.

    She's BEAUTIFUL! I am freaking out at how fast it goes. Feels like yesterday she entered, huh?

    Love the T-shirt idea! Have her frame it so it doesn't inadvertently get put in the wash (don't ask how I know this lol)
