My wife and I are separating after 6 years of marriage. We have a 4yo daughter and a 6yo son. We're mostly amicable, and are working out the custody arrangements. If you have any experience in this area, I would love to hear about what works and what doesn't work.

Right now we're still in the same house but are in the process of selling it and finding new living arrangements. We're debating the split. She proposed having the kids during the week and me during weekends and holidays. I'm proposing that I pick them up after school on Thursday and have them until drop-off on Monday.
