Ryder with 2 of his teachers at his preschool graduation ceremony. Ryder's school had a lovely graduation ceremony for all the preschool students. All the graduating classes sang a song together. As each child got called up on stage to receive a lei, the teachers read what the kids wanted to be when they grew up. In the past, Ryder's answer has been that he wants to be a daddy and to work in an office. Because of his love of oceanography, Drew and I thought he also might pick some sort of ocean science career. But he said that when he grows up he wants to own a spaceship store. He doesn't just want to build spaceships or to work for NASA. He actually wants to have like a car dealership, but for spaceships. Who knows, but the time he grows up, maybe they will! It was really nice that Drew's mom was able to come to Ryder's graduation with us. After the ceremony, we took Ryder out for a sushi dinner. That kid would eat sushi every night!
