And he knew that he would be able to have contact with them because we told him, you know, as long as you stay on your medication. and you're stable and you're not acting goofy. We want you to be part of their lives. We want you to be their dad. We're still their grandparents. We want to be their grandparents, but legally we'll be the ones with custody.

And we all felt like that was the best solution for getting the Department of Children's Family Services out of our lives and keeping the kids in a stable situation.

You know, we'd go over and spend time at his house, especially with Colton, the younger one. Yeah, I mean, he was getting to be dad, and he was a good dad for most of that time. And then...
