Every time my husband and I are having trouble dealing with our circumstances we remind each other that "this is just a moment in time. Next week, next month, next year, this will just be a memory that we will say 'remember when'". You are so lucky to have a supportive husband. That is something that many of us pray for daily. If your kids are adjusting and doing ok, just ensure the time you are with them is quality. Many women have to work at jobs that aren't their dream and don't have the flexibility your employer seems to provide. I am lucky enough to have an awesome job in an incredible field and still am having issues with leaving my 3 year old son. I feel like I need to be with him more and am considering quitting to stay home for a while. There is a light at the end of your tunnel. One more semester and you are there. One more semester and your hard work will pay off. Don't give up and for heavens sake, don't quit! Just remember how good it feels to be able to say "ok" when your kids ask you for a goody at the store or when you can walk out of the shoe store without the deep money stress sigh. Count your blessings and keep your chin up. Drink lots of water, stand tall and practice deep breathing stress releiving sighs - it isn't magic, but it helps.
