It sounds like you already have a court order that provides you with a standard possession schedule. If that is true, you will have to file a case called a Modification in Suit Affecting the Parent-Child Relationship. This suit will allow you to ask the court to let your son live with you. In the meantime, you should try to get your son for as much extra time as the sister will allow. Just start out with an extra night here and there and then keep building up as much time as you can. When you file for the modification, you'll be able to show that you've had your son all that extra time. If you can't afford a lawyer, you could find help with filing a modification pro se at www.texaslawhelp.org.
