Yikes! Sorry, I accidentally posted that last without editing out a bunch of extra text from your post. This is what it SHOULD have looked like:

I went through this with S10 and D16 (9 and 15 at the time). Kids initially get excited about the idea of having a new bedroom in a new home, the whole separation thing seems like a big adventure to them. But it's short-lived. They're going through an emotional roller coaster too, so just be ready because they are going to have some very low lows and will need you more than ever. Your W is going to want to pretend that everything is fine and that they don't need help, so don't expect her to step up when they need it most.
