It was a cute ceremony -- the 3-year-old class sang a couple of songs, and then they marched the pre-K class in to "Pomp and Circumstance." (Penny freaked out slightly and ran out again to go to the bathroom.) Her teacher, Ms. Kathy, gave a little speech -- she was so overwhelmed that she could only get it out a few words at a time. Penny came back in, sans cap, and joined her class to sing a couple of songs. They got their "diplomas" and then everyone adjourned to the pre-K classroom for a party.
Of course, Penny had to do a finger-stick test before she could have chips and cake, so we got her kit. Given a fresh audience, she lost all shyness and immediately dropped into lecture mode, demonstrating everything matter-of-factly for the gathered parents. (There's a video of that -- and more pictures -- over on flickr.
Today, Matt is picking her up after lunch to get her registered for kindergarten. He may or may not take her back to school afterward, depending on how long it takes.
Insert "my baby's all grown up" whimpering here.
