No 2x4's kid, just some big hugs and knowing that you are not alone. You're going to get through this...I know you will. I find it fairly easy to recognize someone's character through their writings...you're a wonderful person Jenny and sooner or later, your husband is going to realize that. It may or may not be too late for him once he does. But YOU will be ok. You're a strong, sweet girl that is also a great mom. Don't worry about what your husband does...worry about what you are doing and how you are going to improve you...for you. Everything else will fall into place as they were meant to be...I promise.

Hang in there kid, you've got lots of people rooting for you...you're never alone!!!
