I don't know what I could possible add except to say that I did actually cry reading about your daughters waving goodbye, but would like to share a story of my childhood in hopes you may realize that not only are kids resiliant, but I believe are relieved to see their parents unhappiness end.
I remember sitting on the top steps of my house with my 3 brothers crying as my parents fought nearly every night.
I remember "the talk" when my Dad told us he was leaving but would be close at all times.
I remember the relief we felt when we heard the pain we thought we were responsible for was over.
Please don't forget you are a great Dad and your kids know it.
This has been the toughest thread i have ever read here.
