I did it with my three sons, at the time they were 11, 14, and 15. the custody was supposed to be 80% me and 20% ex-wife. It actually was 99.99999% me. It was definitely the correct thing to do in our case ( mom got hooked on meth ) She is off the booger sugar now and has been clean and sober for 5 years now and trying to make a late re-entry into their lives. My current wife is a BSN RN and is studying to be a practitioner. I am a stay at home dad for my two year old daughter. We have a better bond than I ever did with my boys, but I was active duty when they were growing up and was deployed 7 times to the gulf, 2 times to Haiti, and spent a year in Iraq.
Sorry for the long post, but you are doing the right thing for your daughter. Keep your spirits up ( especially when she is observing you ).
Regards,
Sandy
