possible to sit there that same day and see my child for the first time. lily was always outgoing. she was always a bundle of joy. always ready to learn, touching new things, picking things up, asking what this is, learning to talk. as a father, when you're unmarried and have a child in the state of florida, you actually have no rights until you seek those parental rights. i might see lily two or three hours if i'm lucky, once a week, maybe twice a week for half an hour. carlos came into the picture and they moved in together. there was no chance at all that i was going to be in this child's life. megan was fixated on, well, she has this new boyfriend, and this is lily's new family.
