As other guys have said into each life rain must fall. However I have found when it rains, boy does it rain!!!! Have been through some very dark times myself, and its family that is always there to help and guide. You are there for your little girl and thats the most important thing in life.

Thanks for the moral support guys, just another of the many reasons I love this forum. It does feel like a heavy weight when so may different things go wrong in a short period of time. Yet, I guess it's actually better that way, than each individual thing happening in an otherwise awesome week

she knows there is no tooth fairy or Easter Bunny. I think she is going to be fine.

We got along just fine until I read that. Heck, I had an Easter Bunny, and I got rich from the tooth fairy and I loved Santa Claus.
I think that those ideas, that allow fancy and fact to interweave, that allow imagination and joy in a child's heart, are all good things. I also know that there is lots of room for different ideas in the heads of good people who mean well.
It seems that you're a great parent and that your child will be fine. I, too, have lived in an abandoned building, and once in a Chevy van, and many years in Michigan, so I've been down the road.
I would throw this Biblical verse out to you...and this is NOT preaching...although my dad was a long-time preacher.
1 Corinthians 13:13
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. And it looks like you have that in abundance.
God bless you, sir,
