Goodbye 1st Grade!

Today was Anna's last day of school as a 1st grader! It's a short day - the kids attend Mass then have a "Moving Up" ceremony where they move up to the next grade.

Anna spent several hours on this card for her teacher last night. "Moo" is strangely a term of affection in first grade... Needless to say, Anna adores her teacher!

 One final hug...

It's official!
