Kindergarten Graduation


Yesterday was kindergarten graduation and two of our little ladies were graduating, Nohemy and Maryuri.


This was quite the affair. All the girls had to wear pink dresses and white sandals. The boys had to wear pink shirts and black ties.


Saturday morning Pamela took the two little girls and helped them shower and wash their hair. She got them in their dresses and did hair. She then went and borrowed all of Karen's pink jewelry. She had pink brooches on theirs dresses, pink bracelets on their arms. She was a good big sister yesterday. Pamela had a wonderful time transforming them into little princesses.


We walked to the church building a few minutes before 1:00, the appointed hour of graduation. You expect things will start late. One of the families was not there and we waited and waited. And waited. Graduation finally started at 2:30. That is a long wait, even by Honduran standards.


It was a simple little ceremony. Nohemy and Maryuri are now ready for first grade.
