Someone said not to long ago.. "We will be here if you ever have that hidden step back". Well I wouldnt say I have had a hidden step back, but today has been quite emotional for me. I havent cried in a couple of weeks really, not like this, today I lost all control. Had a huge argument with STBX and STBX's Grandmother, as they are now doing everything they can to keep me from having contact with my Mckenna. So as a pick me up to myself, I thought I would try and list a few things positive that I am...

I am..

1.) An excellent Father
2.) A compassionate Lover
3.) An excited Uncle
4.) A loving Dog Owner
5.) A loyal Friend
6.) A dedicated Soldier
7.) One Hell of a Surveyor
8.) A decent Writer
9.) A complete Smart Ass
10.) A widow making Poker Player
11.) An avid Hunter

The argument was yesterday, what set me off was visiting my best friends newborn daughter, and seeing the pics of my nieces and nephews. I miss my daughter tremendously.

I have good support ILYLABFAW Alli..

And of course all of you guys who have been here for me time and time again...

the breaking down and crying is a good thing, it's a cleansing of emotion. and the positive list is awesome, you are those things and so much more, i'm sure most men your age would have walked away and said forget it. you've taken on the whole clan. go for it. do what is right in your heart and soul concerning your daughter. God is right there with you. and He knows what is right.

I think it is easy to forget we all have good qualities within us, when we get so much darn feedback with the STBX's and the bad qualities.
It was good that you reminded me of this today.

I want to say this one thing.Keep the faith ,what I mean by that is keep faith in your daughter for she will know your love for her no matter what anyone says or does to discredit you.I don't know her age but I think if you are even half the father I think you are she will come to believe in you. Take Care and don't stop your positive thoughts no matter how hard it is for you.

It's how you carry yourself through adversity that makes you a survivor or a victim. Good for you for staying strong and positive!!! =]

You forgot one....you are a good friend to many here! Don't worry kiddo, it's normal to have a bad day now and again. I think God lets us have those bad days so that we appreciate the good ones, the so so ones and then we can really revel iin the GREAT ones!

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
