I wish you luck Chris, I really do. You're in a difficult position and have to handle things the way you think is best. There are two things I will tell you to always keep in mind as you go through this:
1. Change is inevitable. Whether its plans, opinions, feelings, fears, or hopes. The two of you are human, and you both are trying to do what each of you thinks is the right thing to do. That "right thing" can change from one week, heck, one day, to the next. What you think is right today may change tomorrow, what *she* thinks is right today may change in 3 months. All you can do to prepare for that is to know what your goal is and to keep your options open.
2. Cut yourself some slack. You (and her and your kids) are going through some major upheaval. The confusion and the pain from it will not heal overnight. Patience and tolerance will get you through a good deal, but don't discount the power of saying NO. After all, this may have started because of her, buts its NOT all about her anymore. There is absolutely *nothing* wrong with you coming out of this marriage with exactly what YOU want, but if you don't try, you won't get it.
Keep us updated Chris. DS is always a place to vent. ;o)
