6th Grade Graduation


The Graduate!

Of the 6th grade anyway.   I can't believe how old and big Braxton has gotten!

It seems just like yesterday that I was holding him in my arms as an infant it is amazing how fast they grow up and boy has Braxton grown up not only in height but in intelligence and in maturity.

Braxton loves to read, he loves playing all kinds of video games and hanging out with his friends, he also has love for learning Braxton has many interests and he retains information like a walking computer.

Braxton was also asked to give the 6th grade promotion speech which I am going to include now.
Braxton's Speech:

I think 6th grade has helped us in so many ways we cannot even
begin to understand.  We don't totally understand the impact it really has had on us.
It's like trying to understand just how big our universe is.
So let me try to bring it down to scale.

6th grade has helped us to be more responsible, mature, respectful, and prepared for the future.
As 6th grade went by, we became more aware to reality.  We can't be a kid forever, so I think that 6th grade has helped us for teen hood.  It helped us grow and come out of our shells. It reminds me of an old Chinese proverb,

A frog in a well can only see part of the world, but if it comes out of the well, it can see more of the world.
I like to think of us as the frog and our shell as the well, if we come out of our shell we see more of the world.

I also feel that 6th grade has given us many treasured memories.
For instance Shakespeare. It was so fun to reenact his plays and bring his words to life again.
It also helped our classroom become one.
Almost like a family. I also think that we all really bonded together this year and made a lot of new friends.

In conclusion 6th grade has prepared us for our future and what lies ahead as we continue on in our lives.
I would really like to thank the teachers for making the world better in their own way.
We would not be here without you.
Thank you!

Braxton has really grown into quiet the young man, and I know that he is going to succeed in everything that he does.

We love you very much, and know that we will always be here for you no matter what!
