Alright so I finally have some peace about this situation.

I just left the lawyer's office, and the girl I was talking to about everything had something to day so I had another L talking to me. I told her I didn't feel right filing for D because it starts the train toward's it, and that train doesn't stop unless we BOTH agree to stop it.

I then told her I wanted to do the minimum necessary to get my kids here where they will be taken care of. She then said that they can in fact do just a petition for temporary custody that would keep them here in my state until the hearing date, and then I could ensure they stay in this state at the hearing. I feel MUCH better about this option because it shows here that it isn't about me and her, but about the kids well being and it allows her to go her own path without judgement or interference from me.
