On March 11, 2006, I received the first greatest blessing of my life, my daughter Makayla. My second blessing, was born July 5, 2009, his name is Xander. From that day forward, I promised to give them the best life possible. Their Father and I did not last as husband and wife. I was forced to make the choice to leave him due to infidelity issues as well as him being a unhealthy role model to my kids. I pray that if and when they do decide to marry they will understand the concept of vowels and marriage. I only want Makayla to settle for nothing less than the perfect gentlemen, and Xander to be a perfect gentlemen. At the time I wanted a divorce, we were both active duty and stationed overseas. He was not wanting to divorce, the military has a clause which did not allow us to divorce but only legally separate until we moved back to the states. After being here only a couple months I was told that I was getting force shaped out due to manning cuts. Ten and half years active duty, in dismay and after a long talk with him, we decided I would move back in with him, doing so would allow me to finish my degree and possibly work on our marriage. Due to the past events, I was not the same wife he was used to, refusing to be the doormat I used to be. A couple months went by and without notice I was served papers for divorce. Again, not knowing where to go, what to think, where to live or how to make money and start my new life. I was forced to find a place, and hope to find a good job. This city is one with not many options. With all the qualifications I have and a Bachelors of Science degree I have only had luck getting seasonal positions and jobs that pay no more than minimum-wage. Even after we split/separated, we were always able to work together to ensure our kids needs were met. Unfortunately, this last year has found us at odds and we cannot come to mutual agreement regarding child custody issues for Makayla and Xander. First Day of Makaylas kindergarten On March 11, 2006, I received the Our divorce was final November 2014, January 2015 he went ahead without my knowledge, claimed both children on his taxes and refused to give me anything, even though I paid half of everything that year. Because I represented myself during court I was not aware that certain things need to be and should have been documented; such as who is filing taxes this year, holidays and summertime share, none of which is in the current parenting plan. He won primary custody with both of us having joint custody. I only get to see my babies every other weekend, which for me is not enough at all and completely devastating, I want to see them, provide for them and teach them everyday. Knowing that I can eventually bring this matter back to court and fight for my rights. I have been contemplating everyday on how I can change this and working on saving up enough money to hire an attorney. However, about two weeks ago I was served papers yet again saying that he was filing for full custody. I know that I will not stand a chance at winning without an attorney ecspecially since he has one. Nor would I be able to live happily knowing that as their mother I would be losing all my rights and time with them. Handsome lil guy! Several times throughout this year, I have tried to get some more time with the kids, asking him if I could take them to dinner, have them for Thanksgiving, pick them up from school, etc. and every time I have been turned down because he says it is not my time with them. At the beginning of the summer 2015, he asked if they could visit my ex-in laws for a couple weeks, upon return I would get them for two weeks. I agreed because I never want the children to not see their family and I would get the extra time with them that I have been longing for. Mutually, we came up with a written agreement and it was signed by both of us, they left the first weekend summer started. Sparing you the details, at this point when the kids returned from their time with his family, he refused to give me the two weeks of extra time with them, despite the signed agreement we had made.That was just one example of their father not complying with our agreements, not allowing the kids to see me, their mother, however there are many more but it would make this a bit lengthy. I am over being taken advantage of and walked on, these babies are mine as well as his and I need some help to make this happen. Unfortunately, this comes at the cost of hiring a lawyer ($2,500 retainer fee and $250 an hour), traveling back and forth for court hearings and possibly loss of potential work due to court hearings.I am asking for your assistance in helping me do what I need to do. Please help unite a Mother with her two lovely babies once again. Whether you can only spare $1 or $5 , every dollar will go towards the fees of whatever I must do to get my children back. Any leftover money will be deposited into college funds for Makayla and Xander. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my story and considering making a donation. To all those who donate, you will forever positively impact the life of my children and that is priceless. I promise to pay all the support I get forward.
