Today I lost custody of my children in court. I am upset & this had to ruin my sons 5th birthday. He doesn't know why daddy is depressed but he know's it must be because of his mom. I had to beg for them to let me see them today. The judge was nice enough to grant me unsupervised visitation with them. I got to hand it to their mom for setting me up because she really fucked me this time. I am on probation and managed to dodge a pee test today. My last test results were too clean. I went to the mall to pick them up at our meeting place since there is a restraining order on me. There mom spoke with me briefly. I asked her if she still wanted to mediate. She said sure...and then it got ugly. I asked if my kids were going to be exposed to her abuses boyfriend. She said this has nothing to do with dropping the kids off. (I know this but I am concerned) she then proceeded to say my son says a lot of things. I said like what? Daddy smokes pot? She said no, he says you are going to find a new mommy. So I asked him. "Galen, do you want a new mommy?" He said, yes right in her face. I'm proud of my boyo Galen. He is such a tough guy I took him to the beach shack for his birthday and Order him a Henry's (root) Beer in the bottle. Looked so funny seeing my Galen drink his refreshing beverage. Ofcourse his little sister looks like a boy now cause she cut her hair...(Shaved). Such a little punk and does her own thing. She is a little tom boy. She said she wanted her hair short like Daddy's. I love them two little devils and though it's been tough I never regret a moment of bringing them into this world. All I want is to be a dad...I don't really care if I meet someone else or hit the lotto. I just want them in my life...

i know from an observer's perspective that the fight for custody can be a hard one, especially when records are involved.
i had a friend who had done time in the past and was on probation for it, but he had changed and all he wanted to do was be a good dad. no more fucking up.
it can be tough.
be strong, but i don't think i need to tell you that.
