I really hate the saying "kids are resilient!" You're daughter will be ok because she has a great mom that will help her get through it. My H made a comment about this being better for the kids to not see us fight all the time.(kind of hard for them to see us fight when he has been working overseas for 6 years!) Whatever makes you feel better about it. I've always liked the saying "you shouldn't stay together for the kids, you should make it work for the kids!"
Sorry for the negativity. This is really hitting home for me because we haven't told our kids anything at all and I'm dreading that time. My kids are older, not sure if that makes it easier or harder. They understand more, but on the other hand they understand more!
You're doing great, I hope if/when the time comes for us to tell our kids I handle it as well as you are.
