rhino 0 #1 August 28, 2002 This is the first time my son and I saw each other in over a year.. After the antichrist took him from me.. "a year ago" He paused at the door looking at me and sprinted across the room jumping into my arms. He wouldn't let go for 5 minutes. It was the greatest feeling in the world. I immediately started to cry like a baby with him in my arms. Second pic, Daniel and I at the zoo.. "a month ago" Third, Parachutist Mag spoof,, "3 weeks ago" Rhino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hooked 0 #3 August 28, 2002 How can someone not let their child see his father in over a year! The pictures brought tears to my eyes. What a moment for both of you. I hope there isn't a year between the time you get to see him againJ -------------------------------------- Sometimes we're just being Humans.....But we're always Human Beings.

rhino 0 #4 August 28, 2002 QuoteHow can someone not let their child see his father in over a year! A sick person.. Here is a better pic.. It was in a 10 by 10 foot room with a sandbox, 85 degrees, and 2 men hating women taking notes. We had to put up with it for 4 months. It sucks... I will NEVER let anyone separate us again.. I see him weekly.. Rhino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for all your support Rhino and son Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites SkydiveMonkey 0 #18 August 28, 2002 Must have been one fo the best moments for you there. ____________________ Say no to subliminal messages Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites rhino 0 #19 August 28, 2002 It was both the best and the worst.. The sheer terror at that moment that he was going to reject me after a year. "I am crying while writing this" I was so afraid that he was going to harbor some really bad feelings towards me. During that year I at least managed "thanks to a Texas judge" to maintain phone contact with him nightly. I can't imagine what horror and confusion must have fun through his mind on a daily basis while his mom was keeping him from me. The moment he hugged me I questioned everything I had done that last year. Should I have fought so hard to get custody in Texas? Should I have moved immediately after it happened? Should I this? Should I that? It was horrifying.. I almost had a breakdown right their. My little boy was holding me.. The first bear hug we had in a year and I felt like a failure in the worst way. "tears running down my face right now" I only hope that this doesn't permenently scar his little heart. How can a 3 1/2 - 4 year olf process all this comfusion and pain? Do they understand? I don't know.. I am just trying to reinforce the fact to him that I will NEVER go away. I will NEVER let anyone take him from me again.. I cherish my time with him very much.. After that first 1 hour "supervised" session was over. Daniel started saying Daddy one more minute Daddy, Just one more minute, Can I have another hug Daddy, can I have another french fry Daddy? It was heart breaking.. My little boy was begging me not to let him go again after not seeing me for a year.. "I am still crying" and all I could say is I love you son.. I will see you again next week.. The moment he left the room I started whaling.. I was crying uncontrollably.. That feeling of loss, failure, not "really" knowing if I would see him again.. The deep heart felt insecurity of loosing him that became so familar a year before creeping in.. Here we are a year later after that.. I now have joint custody and get him 1/4 of the month roughly. Everytime I drop him off I still have that fear inside. I never sleep the night he leaves.. I toss and turn and cry.. I miss my boy..

You are blessed because he is part of you and you will always be part of him. There is no greater accomplishment in this life than being a good parent. Every moment with him counts.
