Kindergarten Graduate

Yesterday Greta received her diploma at kindergarten graduation. The graduation program was short and sweet. The kids sang America the Beautiful, received the diplomas, and sang a song about what they learned to the tune of The Adams Family. During the receiving of the diplomas, each student said what they wanted to be when they grew up. It was really cute. The professions included zookeeper, hair doer, rock star, and veteran. Greta stated she wanted to become a doctor.

Later in the day Greta told me she was ready to start her summer job. I asked her what job she was planning on starting. She responded, "I'm going to be a doctor and work where Nana works." (My mom is a nurse here in Twin Falls at St. Luke's.) She thought graduating from kindergarten meant she was ready to join the workforce. I told her she needed to go to college first. She stated she never wanted to go to college. She wanted to always live with me, Lucy, and Neil.

I completely agree.
