The girls are so excited to get to see her every school day from now on!&#160; Sweet sweet Anna Kate is anxiously awaiting her sister\u2019s return home in the picture on the left.&#160; I totally remember that feeling when my sister Michele was in school.&#160; I would look through the glass of our front doors and just stare at the driveway, what seemed like forever.&#160; When you\u2019re ready to go to kinder, and everyone else is, it\u2019s hard to understand why it\u2019s not your turn yet.&#160; And Anna Kate is SO smart.&#160; Anna Kate would do great in kinder this year, but it\u2019s just not quite time (thank you God; I need one more year with this love).&#160; I\u2019ve been trying to make it fun for her this first week.&#160; I haven\u2019t taken pictures, but we\u2019ve been all over the place (Pump It Up, McDonald\u2019s, dentist, Clothes Closet to volunteer, and treats in between).&#160; Rose was at Rara\u2019s at the beginning of the week, so once she got home, we were a little more stationary (for obvious reasons), lol!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pondfam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/IMG_2123.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"IMG_2123\" style=\"border-left-width: 0px;

Noelle said she was so quiet and just looked around the entire time!&#160; The next day, Noelle packed markers and a coloring book for Julia to have on the bus.&#160; And then by Wednesday, Noelle had packed hair accessories and did Julia\u2019s hair in pony tails on the way home.&#160; They are going to have so much fun on that bus, and the littles can still nap at their routine time, although Anna Kate can\u2019t wait to join in the fun and isn\u2019t consistently napping any more (but is consistently having quiet time in her room during nap time)! <img class=\"wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-winkingsmile\" style=\"border-top-style: none;
