The kids have started giving me a hand in front of their face a lot for pictures, so I don’t seem to have so many good ones recently.

But then occasionally Sarah will ham it up!

And here she wanted me to take a pic of her “sand excavator”.

I joined Sarah’s preschool class for a trip to the library in June, and Sarah was excited to get her very own library card.

She was also very excited to finally get ice cream from the Manor Deli, which she has been requesting for some time.

Here’s a pic her teacher took of us having lunch after school — for the last few months she wanted to have lunch immediately after school every day with her friend Nicholas.

On her last official day of school she asked if we could paint her nails for the graduation the next day, so we did!  She was so happy, she said it would make it better when she does the hand motions for the songs they’d prepared.  Here she is enjoying some BBQ chicken (still her fave) with her freshly painted nails.
