Parker had a great year in third grade. When his teacher called last summer to tell me he was in her class, I nearly cried tears of gratitude. Audrey had Mrs. Smith for third grade and she is such a perfect fit for my kids. I know that Parker had the best year possible! (Minus that bully incident!)
The third graders ended the year with a fun field trip to the Dallas World Aquarium. Miles, Audrey and I tagged along.
Here is a still shot of Parker's moves:

Parker and his buddies, Reed and Noah.
Audrey and a creepy spider crab that she was really excited about.
It was like a mini Costa Rica in there. The kids loved it, but of course it doesn't compare to the real thing!
Cute little Barred Owl that Audrey wanted to take home.
As the kids accepted their awards last Wednesday, they were allowed to "dance" across the stage. Lots of kids did shy little moonwalks or flashed peace signs, but Parker went all out.
He had all the administrators cracking up.

Way to go, dude!

Parker and Mrs. Smith. We will miss her!
On the last day of school, at 7:15, we had a little donut party with the kids we have carpooled with all year. I am so grateful for the friendships that carpool has enhanced. Both for me and for the kids! We will miss seeing these faces every day!
