I could be completely wrong but it appears that she is looking for confirmation that she has chosen the right course. Her concern with her being viewed as a good parent seems to be important to her. And the fact that she was seeking to have you recognize that (or otherwise she wouldn't be voicing it to you) would make it appear that it is important what you think about her. She probably already thinks you are a great parent with it being important that you are raising the kids together.

I read once that the chance of a marriage reconciliation is over when both parties decide to give up.

I respect that you continue to soldier on. Your kids will know how much their father loves their mother by the courage you are showing.
