OPINION

Sheila R. Haley appeals the dismissal of her petition to be appointed sole managing conservator with the right to designate the primary residence of the twin children of Charlena Renee Smith. In two issues, Haley contends the trial court erred in determining that Haley lacked standing to pursue an original suit affecting the parent-child relationship (“SAPCR”) and in considering affidavits offered by Smith. Because Haley did not establish she has standing, and because we presume the trial court ignored all incompetent evidence in reaching its conclusion, the order of the trial court is affirmed.
