It's Hard Work Turning 5!
I told my Mommy and Daddy that I wanted a chocolate, round cake with trucks and candles. When I saw it for the first time, it took my breath away. I exclaimed: "It is beautiful, I just LOVE it!!!" I had a great party, and received great gifts. I love being 5!

Graduation Show
One year of school down...quite a few more to go. I had a great time this year, had a lot of fun, and learned some things too!
As some of you may know, my class and I have been practicing our singing for the last couple of months, and I wanted to share our final product. In my opinion, this was a really good show, and I think all the Mommy's and Daddy's really liked it!
So here we go! Presenting the graduating class of Ms. Hamdun's 2012 Pre-K:

I Learned To Swim In Hawaii!
We recently came back from our summer vacation to Hawaii! We had a lot of fun - eating, swimming, eating, building sand castles, eating, swimming some more, and sleeping. Then we would get up the next day and do it all over again.
I wanted to share a couple videos of my first couple of successful swims. I still don't see the need to get my face wet while swimming, so I have developed a doggie-paddle-treading-water technique. It works pretty well, unless I do get my face wet, then I can lose focus, which can be a problem when you are 1 inch away from being under water.
Mommy and Daddy were really excited to see me keep my head above water. The week before, i needed daddy to hold the back of my swim trunks or I would sink straight to the bottom.
I also found out how much fun it can be to do a big jump into the pool off the 'high' dive!
A couple other things I tried while in Hawaii include snorkeling, eating pineapple, going to the potty while standing up, and taking a shower.

Graduation Show Practice
Well, it's almost been a whole school year for me, and I have learned a lot! All my letters, I'm even starting to spell some small words. My numbers (I was already pretty good at those). Daddy has even started teaching me some advanced math (plus and minus). I am getting much better at writing and drawing and coloring too, but today I wanted to share my singing and dancing with you. I think I'm supposed to keep these a secret, but I can give you a sneak peek. Here are three of my songs my class will be singing at our graduation show.
Pineapple Princess
The Hukilau
Three Little Birds
Well, there it is, let me know what you think! Talk to you soon!

Buzzzzzzzzz!
The other day my neighbor said she saw a large swarm of bees flying over her backyard, I didn't think much of it at the time but, while doing some yard work today, I heard this buzzing noise. I look up and see this:
There were thousands of bees in my back yard. It lasted about 20 minutes and they were gone, or so I thought. I went out and took a look at the tree they were swarming around. Now there are a couple of bees flying around a huge clump of bees (about 18 inches in diameter), hanging on to the under side of the tree branch.

Soccer At School!
Mommy and Daddy signed me up for a soccer class at my school. It's once a week on Friday's and I have a great time!
Sometimes Daddy shows up early to watch me practice, I do like soccer, but Daddy can be very distracting.
This was from my practice last week. This is right after a running drill where me and another classmate ran into each other - Head-to-head. We both went down, and had pretty big lumps on our heads, but I must really have a hard head, because he had to go sit down for a while. So, for those new to soccer, always look in the direction you are running or have a really hard head!
