I've found my kids

Hi Everyone, For those keeping up with the saga, I have finally found my kids. They had been living in a town called Hawkesdale, about 300km west of Melbourne, until March this year. Today I found out they are now in Maryborough (Victoria), which is about 170km from Melbourne, to the north west. So today I quickly got ready this morning, which is hard to do after coming off 8 straight nights at work, and drove up there. The school, which is the way I foudn them, were obligated to call my ex, to say I was heading up there. Even though my intention was to just have a chat with the school and explain everything that has been happening, they still had to call. With in five minutes, my ex had picked up the kids, I was still 3 hours away. After meeting with the Principal of the school, things were much clearer for them, and some major concerns were raised, regarding the kids education and mental health. It turns out that my eldest son, who was reading and writing at a Grade Four level in Grade Two, is now struggling with Grade Three. So next week I am going to see the school shrink, who is seeing both the kids, and hopefully something can be sorted out. At least for now I know for sure where they are, it is a start.
