Moving up day, Amelia and I
A moving day for me as my youngest child celebrated her moving up day today. She will be a 5th grader come fall and I ask myself, "Are you smarter than a 5th grader?" I did not think that I would be emotional but I was. June is a time for moving up and on to Summer. I am full of hope for this class and to see them smiling with confidence shows that they are ready for more. Are you moving up or anyone around you?
Thank-you Ellen for this wonderful photo. I shall cherish this moment.
Beautiful picture!
ReplyDeleteAnd the moving up part i totally get, i am getting to terms with the past and letting things go so i can move up and become a great artist. Have a lovely weekend with your family.

Sweet smiles. Moving up is the only way to go. Have a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteIf I could take pictures of people that happy and that bursting with pride every day, life would be a happy place!
ReplyDeleteAw she is absolutely precious! I remember my fifth grade graduation... my mom cried the whole time! They had a "clap out" where the whole school stands in the hallways and the 5th graders walk through the entire school while everyone claps... :)
ReplyDeleteYou're going to make me cry with this lovely pic. I can't believe that's the little baby I went to see the in hospital. Happy moving up day!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful phots - I love your smiles and the light in your eyes. Wishing you a fantastic weekend!
ReplyDeleteLook at the two of you...so beautiful and such a photo to treasure. don't worry, i find myself getting emotional at times i would never expect to these days. they grew up when i was watching closely, but it's never closely enough.
ReplyDeleteLike mother, like daughter -you're both adorable :-) "Thats a framer" as my grandma used to say!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great picture! Such an exciting time in her life, I would love to go back to 5th grade just for a few weeks, ok maybe days, but it sure would be fun.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great summer with her!!
You two are beautiful! So sweet.
ReplyDeleteDarling photo of you and little Missy!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo! Mason is moving out of primary and into secondary come fall. His class play and graduation ceremony was this past week. When they sang 'We Go Together' (from Grease) I got very emotional. I guess it's all a part of motherhood - the greatest joy in the world.
ReplyDeleteAwww how pretty that picture is...what beauties! time goes by so fast!
ReplyDeleteHappy Smiles. Your gal is beautiful ... as only a child filled with love and life can be.
ReplyDeleteMom looks happy too! Amelia looks so like you.
Gorgeous both of you. And, even when I least expect them to be, transitions always trip me up just a little.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful picture! My daughter will be in 5th grade too, I can't believe it. In a blink she will be in college. Have a wonderful summer before moving up to 5th grade!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Amelia and you, too! What a sweet photo...she looks like you!
ReplyDeleteThis is just too gorgeous and you both look radiant.....Happy weekend, xv.
ReplyDeleteCharming, charming, charming!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this lovely photo!
What a beautiful photo...I used to teach 3rd grade and this time of the year was always a jumble of emotions as we were all eager for summer vacation, but sad knowing that we would be saying goodbye...there are still days I miss being in the classroom...who knows maybe someday I will return :o)Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteGreat photo of you and Amelia. It seems our friends always capture us the best.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely mother-daughter duo. The picture is beautiful. You look so happy.
ReplyDeleteWhen I first saw the photograph I thought it was one of two sisters. On closer inspection aided by your post I could see the love and bond only a mother and daughter could have. I am so pleased you have that and that you share her path so much.
ReplyDeleteClarity,
ReplyDeleteOh, flattery will get you everywhere....and maybe even a pve design, drawing....

That is a beautiful photo. And, not just because the subjects are beautiful but also because it is so full of evident emotion. XXOO
ReplyDeletethis is adorable! and although i am not married with a child...my nieces and nephew are growing like weeds and i get it... you just wish you could put them in a "holding pattern" for a little while longer.... so sweet.. x pam
ReplyDeleteYou both look wonderful. A fine memory.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter is starting "JK" in the fall. It didn't occur to me that much would be different from last year's pre-school until I stepped foot onto the grounds and realized that the ride was just beginning. I can't imagine being in one school, in one town for that matter, for my whole grammar school experience. It's going to be interesting.
What a beautiful photo!! And in this particular shot, she is a TOTAL "mini me" -- I have to think you looked exactly the same at her age!
