First Grader

Today was Ryan's last day of kindergarten at Johnsville Elementary School.  I seriously cannot believe how quickly this year went by.  It seems like just yesterday I was wiping the tears (mine, not his!) as he boarded the bus for the first day of school.  He had a great year with Mrs. Busch - she was awesome and we are forever grateful to her!!!  She sent this home with Ryan today:

Ryan -

You are a very special person

And you should know,

How I loved to have you in my care

How fast the year did go!

Please come back to visit me

As through the grades you go

Try hard to learn all that you can

There is so much to know

One thing I tried to teach you

To last your whole life through,

Is to know that you are special

Just because, you are you!

Good luck in first grade!  Please come and say "hello" to me next year!

Love,

Mrs. Busch
