Debating whether or not to put them (twins) through it or not!

I don't envy you, mumoftwins. Having two go through it at the same time just adds an extra layer of stress.

Mumoftwins I'd go for it. You've all come this far. There is nothing to lose but lots to gain from the experience! Good luck to the twins. xx

Ooops! Hope I didn't come across as discouraging. I was aiming for empathetic!

I think that anyone who has come this far on the journey may as well see it through to the end. :D

Both DD and I are in a "bring it on" frame of mind.

Both of us are really surprised about how we feel because we both expected to be feeling really anxious about now. This time last week, I was feeling very nauseous, anxious etc so it's come as a complete shock, to be honest. She wants it over and done with and says she's mentally ready. I'm ever so proud of her for showing such confidence, strength and determination at this stage - such an amazing thing for a 10 year old. :D
All the children facing the 11+ are so brave and I take my hat off to each and every one of them - they're all stars! :D
