Thanks, Tori,

I received a little bit of coaching from both my C and my kids' C for this conversation. I hold fast that I did what was best for them.

Plus I reinforced to them that mommy and daddy both still love them and always will. (We both tell them that every day.)

I think the kids will form their own opinions and feelings about what is happening regardless of what I tell them. S9 is already mad about his dad leaving. S14 is living in his own little bubble world. And, S11 just wants everyone to be happy and constantly "checks in" with both me and his dad to ask, "So, how are you doing today?"

Honestly, they are awesome kids. (I know I'm quite biased and I know they have their own bag of imperfections, but will always protect them and try to act in their best interests.)
