So you file a petition to relocate to Miami from Hernando and it was granted. After that is I am completely confused by your story. Anyway, if you want to move back to Hernando, you need to go through the relocation procedure all over again. A document saying "Notice to Intent to Relocate" and nothing else is meaningless under Florida Family Law.
Again, you need to go to an attorney's office and sit down and tell him/her the situation. From what I can tell, you were never married, he has no court order to pay child support and the document you have signed means nothing in court. From that, it would appear he has no rights to the child as he has never applied to the court for any and you do not have to do anything he tells you.
