More details to this question:
We are separated but not legally, we have a verbal agreement that he can have her Thursday's and every other weekend, when it's my weekend I pick her up at 8:30 p after I get off of work. He is saying now that I cannot pick her up then, that I will just have to be without her another night and pick her up Saturday morning. Can he do this?

If you only have a verbal agreement then both of you have rights to the child if you are married.You may want to consider a divorce, that way you can make sure that a court is ordering whatever agreement you come up with. The courts usually follow a parent's agreement as long as it is in the best interests of the child. You do not mention how old the child is because that could make a difference. An attorney can help you understand what your rights are and help you fight for the proper custody arrangements.
