I don't voice this on my blog at all, but the single greatest fear of my heart, other than death itself, is that I might lose custody of my kids to their dad. Not that he's a bad dad, just that I feel it's best they live with me. Who knows what my kids would decide if it was up to them. These kind of situations stink and everyone suffers. I will be praying for you guys to make it through this transition.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8183659495792368796.post-41548644525154758882007-08-16T20:19:00.000-05:002007-08-16T20:19:00.000-05:00This is a hard decision for sure.

I see my husband struggle with this (and my heart aches along with him) as his daughter expresses her dislike for coming to our house. Right now she doesn't have a choice, but at age 14 she will. He thinks she will choose not to visit. I choose not to try to predict the future... but it's still hard. I will keep you all in my thoughts, dear one.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786838392389718536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8183659495792368796.post-36338952101832943682007-08-16T14:20:00.000-05:002007-08-16T14:20:00.000-05:00Dear Susan, Mickey, Marc and Aric. ginger and bar...Dear Susan, Mickey, Marc and Aric. ginger and barbara express my feelings. Here I sit in anguish for you all, with tears rolling down my face hurting for you knowing God will enable and support you thru everything and anything. I had hoped that this would not become a reality. But as you have told me God has a plan and he will work that plan for our ultimate good. Our trip cancelation was so disappointing but you were able to spend time with Oksana that you would have missed and now you can cherish.
