Aliece Graduates from Kindergarten

Today was a very big day for Aliece. This morning, shortly after school started, we were invited to the elementary school to attend the 2008 Kindergarten Graduation.

Aliece prepared all week for this momentous occasion. She knew exactly what dress she was going to wear. She wanted her hair in a braided pony tail. She wore a pearl-like necklace. Finally, she wanted to make sure that we were going to be there.

Aliece was so cute at the graduation. She would sit perfectly still and quiet - she knew that this was an important day! She had one struggle that she had to deal with throughout the entire 30 minute program, however. Her poor little graduation cap would not stay on her head with her hair in a braid. She would be sitting quietly only to turn her head and have her cap fall off. She dealt with it well through their performance - holding to her head when it would slip, or quickly picking it up and placing it on her head when it would fall off. Nonetheless, she kept her smile and loved every minute of the ceremony.

I have condensed the half hour program into the following small three minute video:
