So we had our homestudy on Thursday afternoon, and I seriously had NO reason to fret! It actually was pretty enjoyable. She was there for about 2 hours. We mostly talked, she asked us lots of questions about our families and our past--school, college, how we were disciplined growing up. She wanted a tour of our house--apparently everything looked pretty good, the only comment she had was that we might want to consider putting a door on our basement (or just use a baby gate) and putting a smoke detector in the basement. That was it! We talked about whether meds are required to be locked up. The law where I live does not state that it needs to be locked up, just needs to be out of reach of children. Overall, it was a great experience. She said that she will probably be the one that does the visits once we are licensed as well, so that made us feel a lot better. I told her that the appearance of my house that day was for her benefit, it may not always be that clean
. Anyway, thanks everyone for the great advice to my original post, I think it made a big difference!
