Thanks, you guys. The best part was that after I told my daughter what we had agreed to, she was sooooooooo happy! She was smiling and laughing and dancing around - more spirited than I had seen her in a couple of months.
That just confirmed to me that I was right to stand my ground for what I thought was best for my kids.
I can't wait 'til I'm finally free. . .
