Weve decided to seperate - how do I tell my children?

For a few weeks we've been considering separating and a couple of days ago decided it would be best. I, personally, am relieved its been sorted cos the to and fro of it has caused me so much stress which makes my disabilities and illnesses worse.

Being disabled, I'm not able to work and our current home is becoming more and more unsuitable to my needs as I get worse so will be applying for an adapted home from the council. I think it's best not to tell the girls until I at least know I will be put on the list or, preferably, have keys so it doesn't confuse them.

How do I tell them? We are both still really good friends, we're just friends and no more now which was the main reasoning for the decision to separate.

Thanks all
