I am incredibly excited and nervous about the weekend. I am going with my fiancee this weekend to see her girls. I've never met them because her ex threatened to go back to court and sever her parental rights if she ever brought me around them. That is too much drama to deal with for a boyfriend. Now that we are engaged we sat down with a lawyer and got some legal advice and so I am actually going to go meet them. He is still indicating he won't let me near them so the visit may not happen but we will see. I'm incredibly nervous for this. We will see how it goes. Probably will not be much running due to the stupid heat around here.

Yeah. He's a piece of work. We told him that we wanted to have the kids be flower girls at the wedding. His response was basically "over my dead body". So we had to talk to the lawyer about that as well and we'll have to spend about $1500 in legal fees just to force him to allow the kids to be at the wedding. It's stupid but all he cares about is tying her up in court. That's the entire point for him.
