The Rights of Passage - Francesca is Now Five and a Graduate

Francesca Autumn Corbett

Francesca has now reached the tender age of Five and graduated from a three-year Montessori program called Glen Oaks.  And like the grand oak tree, she is growing nicely, smartly and true as an arrow. 

I have been remiss in blogging about her because of time and schedules.  So today I thought I would include a panopoly of media to show where she has come to as we end the school year.  Here is Francesca in her graduation gown glowing like the flower she is.

Francesca spent part of graduation morning with her favorite friend Sophie.  Francesca and Sophie are a nice complement to each other.

Next, here is a video of the celebration with Francesca marching forth to transfer a flower from the vessel of her toddlerhood to the next stage in her growth having mastered three years in Montessori.  Next stop Kindergarten.  She has learned much in her time and leaves Glen Oaks having learned the early stages of reading not to mention everything else including numbers, colors, alphabet, etc.  Your name it, she has learned it.

A birthday for a five year old is not complete without a cake fit for a Princess.

And party of screaming friends.
