What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? KY

I filed a pro-se appeal of a circuit level custody decision which continued joint custody, but named my ex primary residential custodian (rather than me being primary as i had been since the 2002 divorce). This past Friday the court of appeals rendered a decision. They issued an opinion "reversing and remanding."
Court of Appeals defines reverse as "to declare that a judgment is wrong due to some significant error and that the judgment may not be enforced." Remand requires the circuit court to take a particular action...in this case hold a statutorily required hearing.
KY law also states that an opinion is only advisory to the parties until it becomes final under the applicable civil rules (31-40 days).
Can I do anything right now? If not, once the decision is "final" do my children get to come home?
