We told the children that I'm moving out. It was difficult for all of us but not unexpected the the kids after my wife's impulsive decision last October to tell them she was leaving.
I have found an apartment suitable for me and the children. It's in the same town and large enough for one bedroom for my 2 boys and one for my daughter. I will be moving in tomorrow and spending the first weekend buying furniture and stuff to make it a home.
My W is now being much more agreeable when talking about parenting time. We don't have a plan written down but that's not a big concern anymore since she is being polite.
I did meet with another lawyer and his advice was to make sure I stay involved with the children as much as possible and other helpful advice for working toward staying married. He said that I shouldn't hire him since my wife isn't proceeding with a D right now. Basically don't do anything that she thinks is escalating or accelerating the legal process.
I know I need to be strong but moving out and having to furnish an apartment this weekend is going to be really hard. I've got to show the W that I'm strong.
