Court was within its discretion in modifying father's monthly child support payments based on father's increased income, and mother's credible testimony that children's expenses had increased. Court properly awarded attorney fees, to be paid to her attorney, which were related to mother's pursuit of contempt petitions, even though mother worked as office manager for her attorney's law firm and was not being charged attorney's fees herself. (ZENOFF and SPENCE, concurring.)
