My last home study is take place on the 29th of April and after that I just have to wait for a placement.


Good luck to you Ladyzee! I'm originally from NJ, and although I'm not too familiar with the DES system there (Actually, it is DYFS, correct?) I hope you don't have to wait for placement too long! You must be so excited...10 days away. I'm curious to know how you felt about the ups & downs of the NJ system. Here in AZ, everything seems to be backwards and we have to be our own advocate in a weird sort of way. Our PRIDE classes begin tomorrow night.
