Ohmigosh! I'm so anxious, I can't even concentrate! [View all]

Lat Saturday, my daughter went for her first round of auditions for a magnet school. Today is the day we find out whether or not she passed the first hurdle for acceptance. If she did, she goes on to the final round a week from Saturday. If she didn't, game over.

It's super competitive: almost 500 applied, 80 get a "yes" today and only 25 make the final cut.

Someone tell me to breathe, please!
