David - 5th Grade Graduation

Friday morning David graduated from Desert Willow Elementary. He had a stellar semester even though he started half way through the school year when we moved from California. Some of his accomplishments from the 5th grade were that he continued his straight "A" trend ... AND ... he performed VERY well on the tests for the gifted program in the 6th grade.

All the kids who received their certificates of promotion to the 6th grade hugged their teachers and then the principal. David was the only boy who stuck out his hand to shake his teacher's hand rather than hug him. He definitely doesn't have an issue blazing his own path. I can't wait to see what he does in college and after. It should be interesting and exciting.


Another cool thing to celebrate David's day was that Grandma and Grandpa Doll, Aunt Jenn, and Grandpa Mark & Grandma Mindy could be there.


We are so proud of David. He works VERY hard and always wants to perform at the top of the class. Good luck in 6th grade ... we know you will excel!!!
