Aggghhhh the Pressure

I think my kiddos are finally relaxing about school. We have been at this since August of 2006. Yep, newbies. It seems that we have spent more of this year trying to find our way than we spent actually doing any kind of learning. Documentable learning anyway. I am in the process of getting our portfolio organized so it can be sent off for "evaluation". I am not looking forward to this. Only because I look at the samples of work that we have for this school year and think to myself "What was I thinking?" I didn't actually keep a cookie from the batch that helped Des learn to add and multiply fractions. I didn't keep every photo that Bug took of the animals that we learned to classify. I also didn't keep every scrap of paper that Snoog wrote on to leaarn to make her letters all face the same direction. McDonald's napkins are considered school paper for us right?
I went to park group a couple of weeks ago and spoke up about my concerns. It seems as though I am not the only mom who is having panic attacks and taking vallium during this time. That somehow comforts me.
