An update.

So in December my case for more visitation and custody for Kennedy and Kyler came to a close with me getting joint legal custody and the kids for half of ever school break they have. So far I have had them twice and will have them again the end of this month. Every visit has been nice, I wish I could take time off from work to be with them while they are here. But I cant do that since I am not allowed any time off during rotations. Training the soldiers prior to their deployments is a constant thing and is a 24/7 job, which is very important. Having been deployed and having not received the training I was due before my deployment I want everyone else to be prepared as I wasnt.
The only problem I have right now is child support, I am shelling out more than half of what I take home in child support, to Kennedy and Kyler alone. That isnt including Kyliena's child support. This seemed totally fair to the judge in the hearing, which amazes me. I dont see how the state of California can think that a person can live on so little money. And if it werent for my parents, who I am extremely grateful for, I wouldnt be able to live. They let me stay with them, they give me a place to live and food to eat.
In all, I am blessed to be included in my children's lives, and with a wonderful family and support system.
