I just got a letter in the mail from my attorney. I need to make an appt to see her but she sent the most recent correspondence from my STBX's attorney. He's giving it up. He's agreed that I keep the marital home and has Quit Claimed it to me last week. He will keep the new home he's buying. No equity will go either way (he was previously demanding equity from the marital home and my car). He will keep his 3 cars and I will keep my 1 car, with no equity going either way.
He is agreeing in full to the parenting plan that I sent. He is agreeing to pay whatever the state dictates in child support but has also said that if it is less than $500/mo (this is likely considering I make as much as he does and he covers health insurance and gets a credit for additional time with the kids), he will agree to pay additional child support to equal $500/mo. so that I can have enough money to pay bills and my half of daycare every month without struggling.
And the big shock was that he sat down and talked to me for a long time last night. He says that he never wants his kids to suffer. That he can and will pay for anything they need, even if that means additional money to me. And to prove it, he gave me a signed blank check and told me to use it for anything I needed for the house or kids.
I may die from the shock of all this.
