I GOT CUSTODY!

EMAIL FROM HANNAH:

Jody, I have not received the entry yet, but I did confirm the details with Bruce. You do receive custody of Carrie effective 6/28. Call Trina for details on picking her up.

Stewart's visitations do remain the same. Bruce is already working on a few ways to move the visitation to Kentucky. Both involve the approval of the Guardian Ad Litem and Childrens Services, so it may take a little time to work out. Hopefully, we can work something out in the next few days.

I should receive a copy of the entry tomorrow. I will forward it to you as soon as possible.

MY REPLY:

Hi Hannah,

I was able to reach Gilda on the phone after I left a message for you. She received a copy of the order via fax and forwarded it on to me via fax. I called Trina to talk about actually taking custody on the 28th. I also asked her about scheduling the supervised visitations later in the evening when their offices are open until 8PM. She and I will talk again tomorrow. Please call me so we can talk more about my involvement as a party in the case. For instance, what is included in "dispositional issues"?

I actually got custody! There's going to be a baby in my house! I have so much to do. I made a list of phone calls I have to make immediately to prepare for her arrival next week.
