Clarification for Fathers day visitation

Heres what I asked earlier:I have custody of my 16 year old son, we have standard visitation. Fathers day falls on the third weekend of the month which he is suppose to go to his mothers house(1st,3rd,and 5th). Do I get to keep him that weekend or how does it work? Ive read my paperwork but cant quite understand what everything means. Thanks in advance for any info provided.

My decree says this: (Father) shall have the right to possession of the child each year,begining at 6 on the friday preceding Fathers day and ending at 6 on fathers day,(heres what im not clear on)PROVIDED THAT IF (father) IS NOT OTHERWISE ENTITLED UNDER THIS STANDARD POSSESSION OREDER TO PRESENT POSSESSION OF THE CHILD,HE SHALL PICK UP THE CHILD FROM (mothers) RESEIDENCE AND RETURN THE CHILD TO THAT SAME PLACE.

I have full custody of him!

Thanks for any and all info on this!

***I received an answer to this question, I just want to make sure I totally understand, do I keep him the entire weekend or do I only get him for Fathers Day and she gets him the remainder of the weekend?***

Re: Clarification for Fathers day visitation

I am sorry that I saw this after the fact, but for the next time, you had a right to possession on Father's Day, not the whole weekend.
