We had a great holiday weekend that didn’t end so great…We were both off Monday and Tuesday so that made it a nice long weekend…we were able to get the whole house cleaned (I clean the upstairs and he does the downstairs…) and all the laundry done…he had a few people over for a study group and then he and I watched some movies and sat out on the deck and enjoyed the night air…we also got his office painted FINALLY and got his desk and stuff moved in…it looks really nice and I’m glad that he finally has “his space” done b/c he helped me get my office together over a year ago and his office was being used as a “storage” area…n-e-wayz…we were supposed to have the girls on the 4th (which is also his mom’s birthday)…it hurts me so bad when they don’t bring the girls b/c I see the pain that it causes him…he was like “I called them and they haven’t called me back yet…” and I was finally like “Babe, that means that they are not coming…” He looked so said when he looked at me and said, “I haven’t been able to see my kids in almost two weeks”….while that may not see like a long time to some, that just shows how much he loves his kids in that two weeks feels like two years to him….It is so unfair the way that non-custodial parents are treated…as long as the check is on time, that is all the courts care about his support is payroll deducted so that is never a problem but the custodial parent can decide whether or not they want to comply with the court ordered visitation….when was the last time that you’ve seen a biomom jailed for denying visitation? But biodads get locked up all the time for not paying support…there is more to a father/child relationship than money and we would have much healthier children if the courts would “get a whiff” of that!
