The end of 6th grade

Keion's days as a 6th grader, are numbered.
It's weird to think that he is going to be in 7th grade. Man, he is getting old. Argg, that means I'm getting older too!
The end of the year is packed with tons of work but fun stuff too.
The other night was his final choir concert. Keion filled in last minute for a kid who didn't show up to do his part. Funny thing was, he was better than most of the other kids and had the lines memorized already. He's a natural on stage and a wonderful speaker.




Friday night the 6th graders had a dance/party. It is typically called "teen time" where the kids get to hang out and play games after school. This one was from 6-9 and had a dance with it, a first for these little 6th graders. It was to prepare them for the dances and things they would be able to attend next year.
I'm not worried at all about Keion at the dances. Why? Well, the only place he could be found the whole night was in the gym playing basketball! They had a 3 on 3 tourney going and he and his buddies played non-stop. Forget dancing and girls. Good boy.
This is a kid in Keion's class. Check out that hair! Yes, it is all his.
I love this shot of the dance floor. Typical of a middle school dance. All girls, no boys! Ok, maybe there were 2 boys in there and they were the smart ones.
Keion is also getting an award at an assembly next Monday. He was on the A-B Honor roll all year. He has done well for moving, trying to find his way in this new place and maintaining good grades and being a good kid. The only sad part is the fact that he continues to grow up. What will we ever do without you Keion?

Keion is just all around awesome!! Bo is just like that with girls and I couldn't be happier. Hopefully it lasts a few more years like that for us!
