Year One.....Done!

Boo finished Year One today! We went in with presents for her lovely teacher today...boo had bought her a mug and a little candle holder and she'd also bought the helper a candle holder. Clearly her teacher was a little tearful this morning as she was opening them, and some of the children had written some lovely things in her cards. I was thinking this morning that year one must be a great age to teach....if I think about all the progress Boo has made this year it's pretty amazing. The main thing has been her reading, she's come on in leaps and bounds and a lot of that is due to her teachers hard work and encouraging her self esteem. Her teacher had also made them all a little card with a picture of her and the class on it and in Boo's she'd written inside "Thank you Bekky for all your hardwork this year and for being an all round lovely girl. I hope you have a fun and safe summer with your lovely mum and dad. Hope year 2 goes well and come and visit me soon." Honestly, when Boo read it to me, I could no longer hold my tears back....such a nice thing for her to say. I'll miss seeing her in the mornings and having little chats! Boo has a male teacher come September which I think she'll really enjoy.

Anyway, feels like an end to a chapter in her little life so far!
