Noah Graduated Pre-Kindergarten

Time flies.  Everyone always says how children grow up so quickly and until you see it happen with your own it’s a hard concept to grasp.  I can’t believe Noah is going to be 5 years old this month.  Watching him graduate Pre-Kindergarten brought tears to my eyes.

Noah is so shy.  Like extremely shy.  He is the quietest child in his class and will not even acknowledge a stranger or even a friend of mine when he first meets them.  He hides behind me or tucks his face down to not get eye contact.  Going through Pre-K helped a lot with this but it still took him a really long time to even answer the teacher’s questions.

When he had to walk up on stage during the ceremony to sing, he was silent.  He looked green in his face like he was going to get sick from being so nervous.  When it came time for him to say what he wants to be when he grows up, he froze.  Then he mouthed something in the microphone that sounded like he was getting sick and was not a full sentence.  Everyone just clapped anyways and we took a deep breath that he at least make it off stage without passing out.  I felt horrible for him but proud he at least went up there.  T can relate because she gets extremely nervous and has massive stage fright as well.

He did great walking across stage for the actual graduation part of it in his cap and gown.  So freaking adorable!  I had to capture that on video.  Enjoy!

This is my proud mom moment!
