When I finally got my divorce papers, I read over them but didn't really absorb much. I was in shock, not really caring, just wanted to get it done and over with. I knew Dad looked over them and made sure things were good and benefiting me, not him, so I didn't really do much with them. I went to the courthouse, got my name change, got pronounced divorced (somehow very anti-climatic) and went on my way.
Well, I've been doing thinking lately about moving away from Texas but was worried if Ex would have any say so with the kids. I *thought* we put a clause in there that said I control where they live without regards to him but I wasn't sure. Today I finally looked at the papers and found what I was looking for. It says:
- IT IS ORDERED that A, as a parent joint managing conservator, shall have the following rights and duty:
- 1. the exclusive right to designate the primary residence of the children without regard to geographic location;
I am thrilled! I bet he doesn't even realize that it says that in there. *happy dance*
In other bad news, I found that I can't take him to court to raise child support for another 2 years. Oh well. He's not paying it anyways.

That's great! Except for the part about not being paid child support.
