Class of 2028 – Glen Lake School
Today, the twins (now 6 years old all of a sudden) graduated from kindergarten. There was a short celebration event outside the school in the 87 F heat.
The kids, separated into their three different class groups, and walked in a procession to the front of the seating area.

The ceremony was brief and it was adorable. Class of 2028

Maybe it was me, and what I wanted, I had to pretend.
