Ellie had one last month of adventures at Meeting House preschool. Mom was lucky enough to accompany her class to a field trip at Oxon Hill Farm, where the kids were so well-behaved and real troopers considering there was a lot of drizzle.
Inside the barn we learned about the new dairy cow that had just arrived from New Jersey.
Unfortunately it was too new to be able to be milked (another time!), but the kids still could pet her and get up close to watch her eat the hay.
They also got to feed the chickens as well as retrieve some fresh eggs and then feed the pigs (or maybe they were hogs).
The next week was Ellie's final art show where we found her beautiful bird and butterfly among all the artwork (not for sale). Evie had brought her sketchbook to capture anything she saw that inspired her.
The proud artist!
Ellie and Mary Manning - best friends!
On the day of her actual birthday, Ellie graduated with a slide send-off! She seems pretty excited - no more screaming at the mention of kindergarten.
She met Ms. Elaine at the bottom of the slide and gave her a big hug!
Ms. Elaine's and Ms. Kathie's class (minus a kid or two) toasting with popsicles and ice cream.
Then it was off to her favorite garden behind the school for some photo opps with the family!
