yes you are a great dad. if my dad did half the stuff you did with me, wow, that would be amazing. and don't feel bad about her missing mommy and stuff. that is perfectly normal. moms just have that bond with kids and if you continue the path that your own, on how you are involving yourself with DD, then believe me, she's going to be a daddy's girl when she's older.
on paying for your wife. that is tricky. since she's not working...is she getting unemployment still? I think you should try to talk to a L about all that though, even just call someone up to ask a couple questions (then it's free). I think you should pay for everything for your own self, but I think since you guys are splitting custody half and half, she should expect to pay for herself, just like you are.
but, I can understand trying to help too since she isn't working, but is she actively seeking something? and was she working full time when you guys where together?
A friend of mine from here didn't work, they had 4 kids and he left her. So if he files, she's planning on getting cs, plus alimony, because she never worked and stayed home with the kids. legally, she is allowed to stay how she was before the D. or something like that.
