At Gaby's little Spanish immersion preschool, Jardin de Ninos, she has somehow always been in class with kids that are a year older than her. She basically just keep moving up with her classmates regardless of being the youngest. And so as this year concludes we came to the realization that the next step at this school is for her to attend the Kindergarten class next year.
When I realized that, I struggled with it for a few reasons:
1. I'm not really ready for my little baby to be going to Kindergarten
2. I'm not sure if I want her to go to school 5 days a week
3. It's pretty darn expensive.
So Byron and I thought about all the pros and cons about her going to Kindergarten a year early and came to the decision that if the school thinks she's ready then we shouldn't hold her back and we love that fact that she will be immersed in Spanish for one more year. So we registered her for Jardin's Kindergarten for next fall and then the following year she will go to her public school Kindergarten and hopefully not be too bored. Our thoughts were that although academically she will know the subject matter she will still have alot to adjust to- a new, much bigger school, the language difference, and all new classmates and teachers. We hope that we have made the right decision for her.
So yesterday was her preschool graduation! So cute!
Here are a few of the shots...
