Had a really good phone call with the kids last night! Still on speaker phone with W overseeing, but they were a lot happier and willing to talk, and didn't pause to seek approval to answer or talk nearly as much. They even spoke of looking forward to upcoming visits from me, and I told them that I am working to make that a more regular thing and that I am also working to ensure we have fun visits in the future. I slept well last night knowing they are looking forward to spending time with me. Rationally I knew this, but it helps to get that reinforcement.

Hanging in there, going to the gym each day, working on my statement for the L to make my case. Got a very strong letter from a well known member of our community that is very involved with the youth in our community and that also knows our family well. It will show me to be directly the opposite of her claims. Its amazing how many people are coming out of the woodwork when I just tell them what is going on, without much expectation of anything but an ear to listen. Trying to keep my circle small but effective.

Looking forward to handing the court a nice packet of proof and truth. It will go quite swimmingly against her packet of re-written history and baseless slander.
