Yes, see, school entry is a reason for testing that makes sense to me. If you want early-entry into K, you probably need to have some test scores in hand. I'm with you there!
Dear friends from your life B.K. (before kids) are hard cases. If you want to hold on to her, you either have to stop discussing kids--maybe meet once a month for a girls' night out or something, and limit the kid talk--or you have to hash it out with her. If you really value the friendship, I think you have to be honest. It's a risk, but so is doing nothing. You may lose her, but if you don't, you have lost the soul of the friendship, haven't you?
If it's a real, honest friendship, I think it will weather the storm. If not, I'd personally prefer to know that and not hope that it's something more than it is. You know?
But I do realize that not everyone is me...
