Kalli's graduation was really fun. She had a poem memorized that she had to recite all by herself, a dance to perform and her diploma to receive. The Puerto Ricans made such a big deal about kindergarten graduation that you would think that these kids were winning a Nobel Peace Prize. But it was really nice to have her Aunt Mindy there and Ben was able to come back from Pittsburgh for the day. (Thank heavens for flight benefits!) The best part of the pomp was when Kalli took the microphone and said,"I need everyone in silence." She wanted to make sure that EVERYONE was listening. We thought that her precociousness had reached a maximum, but learned after that her teacher told her to say it. At the end of her poem she received the loudest applause. They were impressed with her English;) This year of school has been one of trials and triumphs for Kalli and her Spanish is coming along great and she is looking forward to first grade. We are so proud of her!
