{the.first.of.many.graduations}

So Friday was Delaney's big preschool graduation. And I must say, for a preschool graduation, it was none too shabby. The graduates were ADORABLE in their caps and "gowns" (aka men's short sleeve white shirts worn backwards). Now, I don't want to make any presumptions, but I'm pretty sure that Delaney was placed at the front of the line for a good reason. We love that girl with all of our hearts, but she is not the swiftest of movers, and I'm pretty sure the Bluffton Academy staff was worried the preschool graduation would never begin if Delaney was left to her own accord. So, there she came, front and center, holding her beloved teacher's hand. She was all smiles and was super excited to join her friends in this graduation. Delaney spaced out from time to time, lost her hat during the big song and dance, and did exactly as we'd expect Delaney to do. But, in the end, we were most proud of her, and we are praying that this is the first of MANY graduations. You know what I mean, right?

Photographer's Note: Please ignore the quality of these pictures. I am SO over the top A-type with, um, everything, but because of the brevity and nature of this preschool graduation, the pictures are not just as I would have them. But, I keep telling myself it's about the MOMENT, not that I had my f-stop just right or my shutter speed on the money. Just tell me it's OK, so I can let it go.
