I “graduated” from kindergarten on Saturday. I don’t know if that’s the right verb — it seemed more like a party. But it was a good time, and fun to have my brothers at school. Here’s my class, before we sang a few songs. Everyone looked good — some looked better than good. I’m not sure why I don’t yet have a white tux. Dad?
But there was a mandatory costume change halfway through… here’s what I had to wear for the interpretative dance part of the program. I don’t think that Dad will let me soon forget that I got my first diploma wearing what looks like a yellow tutu. (p.s. I also think I’m lucky that my report card is in Arabic.)
Then it was off to the main event… cookies and juice. My brothers enjoyed themselves too, while I did the 2 year old version of sitting on the stoop with some ladies.
Dad took some grainy video – if you’d like a closer look at the day…

Congratulations, James!
(the chicken dance needs some work, but your “elephant” wins the prize!)

The comment is priceless. James, love how you are still such a boy even in a tutu.
