BleeckerSt_Girl - very good suggestion about the additional family talk.

My husband and I have already discussed how we are going to present the news. Positive words, bad news, then positive words.

Everyone has given great suggestions. This is not going to be fun. One thing that we will be explaining to them is that we realize if we stay together, our frustration will come out verbally too much. We don't want the kids exposed to that.

I'm at least working today to distract myself. I sure hope we are busy.
