I posted almost these same words in my thread the other day. Our sitches are different but I totally get how you feel here. You are in good hands w VH & Trent, but here's my 2 cents. I see at least 1 goal from your posts: To provide for & protect your kids. And from what I read, looks like you are doing a great job at this. What your D said to you made my eyes water.
I'm in good hands with all of you. Each of you has helped me get to where I am now. I started out thinking what the hell am I going to do with 4 little kids alone, and now I have no worries about it. I almost teared up when she said it too. So much wisdom from such a young girl. I'm going to keep those goals you pointed out in mind. I think I couldn't see the forest for the trees.

Talk to VH, his advice is good. You have my support!
Thanks again for your support. I'm trying to do the right thing. Each day we settle into a better routine.
I must say, and this is NOT going to come out right, but those of you without kids who have to go through this really impress me. Kids kind of muddy the waters a little bit, and you guys work at it because you truly love your spouse. If I didn't have kids, I don't know that I could say that.
