Graduation

Aaron has gone to the same preschool since he was six weeks old, and a few of his classmates have been with him the entire time.  This fall, though, he will be heading to a different pre-kindergarten program.

So, on a warm May evening, he graduated from preschool with his friends.  His sister graduated two years ago, and the ceremony was much the same, except that Aaron opted to sing a solo, which Nora would have certainly declined.  

Nora and her dad missed the graduation because she was playing softball.  She had a good evening too, getting hits both times she came to bat.  Back at home, Aaron hoped that Nora could read the same book as the night before, but this time her homework book was about floods.  Even so, Aaron sat close to her and listened, enjoying having his sister read to him.

He was never been especially willing to sit still long enough to be read to, but apparently he is willing to make an exception when Nora reads.
