Another Sunshine School Graduate!

It is hard for me to believe that Scoty is now a Sunshine School Alumnus! He graduated yesterday, after 3 years of attending the school! They always celebrate with caps and gowns, fun music, and an enjoyable picnic. Scoty has been asking us every day for the last 3 weeks, "How many more days until I graduate?" He was so excited yesterday! And he did great!

He was featured on the cymbals for the song, "Monkeys Jumping on the Bed" and the rhythm sticks for a few other numbers. He looked so handsome in his cap and gown and his little suit and tie! I'm so proud of my boy!

Maggie was asked to play the violin during the ceremony as well. I accompanied her on my flute. She did great! And this was my first public performance in about 4 years! It was nice to get the instrument out again! I was a little rusty and my lip got tired awfully quickly, but it was still fun!

The Sunshine School has been a wonderful blessing in our lives! It's been a safe place for our kids to grow and learn before heading off to the unknown world of school in a second language. We praise God for a Christian school where our children not only have the opportunity to grow academically, but spiritually as well. Scoty is our 3rd Sunshine School graduate. Hard to believe how much time has passed since we left the US. Georgia Kate begins at the Sunshine School next year! We keep that place in business! :)
