Hey WH, just to echo the earlier sentiments. Be calm. Be serene. Plan to yell and scream at the end of the day regardless how well or not it goes TODAY.
That's a lot of stress build up even if you don't see it. Since you're dealing with a child, think of it that way. A child that is trying to manipulate you, any way they can, to get what they want.
Remember that you know best what is right for you and your family. Remember you are the "lucky" one that kept your sanity and your kids are very lucky that's the case.
No matter what else happens, it gets better from today forward. No more limbo. No more wondering what you are going to do. That's forward momentum and you'll do very well with it, I have no doubt.
You didn't ask for it. It's not what you wanted. While you cannot change it, you can minimize the damage to you and the kids, and the time to do that is right here and right now.
You can lick your wounds later, if there are any right?

Boy oh boy. I hope God has something good in store for me down the road because I for one think I have earned it!!!
Oh, He does. He always takes care of His. Could be a while before you see it, but He always does take care of His. It'll be there
Let us know how it goes.
