1Opinion of the Court

This is a child custody case.

The parties were divorced on March 1, 1979. The decree granted custody of the parties' four-year-old daughter to the father and reserved visitation rights in the mother. The decree further provides that the father is to pay the cost of transportation for the child to visit the mother in Baltimore, Maryland three times per year; the child is not to be removed from the State of Alabama except to visit her mother, and the father is to pay the mother's attorney's fee. The mother appeals the award of custody to the father and the father cross appeals.

We affirm.
