of affection between the children and the other party. Neither party shall do nor shall
either parent permit any third person to do or say anything which may estrange the

of the other party or which may hamper the free and natural development of a
children's love and respect for the other parent.

3. Under the existing Order, Father and Mother share physical custody of the children.
Mother is to have physical custody of the children every Sunday,Tuesday and Friday
overnight to the following morning. Father is to have physical custody of the children
every Monday, Wednesday,Thursday and Saturday overnight to the following
morning. Holidays are to be shared by the parties on an alternating basis.
4. This Order should be modified because:
M C::j r �.
a. On Father's scheduled weekdays the children do not spend much time with
Father because he works late hours as a farmer.
b. Since Mother has the children until 7:00 p.m. each day,the children spend the
majority of their time with Father sleeping.
c. Father does not work Saturday evening to Monday morning;therefore, Father
would have more time to spend with the children during that time.
d. The children, who are nine and eleven years old,have expressed a desire to
spend the weekdays with Mother.
e. Mother will be moving to 505 N. West Street, Carlisle,PA in December, 2013;
therefore,the proposed custody modification would not require a change in the
children's school.
5. Concurrence was sought from opposing counsel on September 16, 2013. As of date of
filing, opposing counsel has not responded.
6. The Honorable Judge Oler has previously ruled in this matter.
WHEREFORE,Petitioner asks that the Court modify the existing Order for Custody and
grant Mother primary physical custody of the children Monday mornings through Saturday
evenings and grant Father partial physical custody of the children Saturday evenings through
Monday mornings because it will be in the best interest of the children.
