I want to leave my home to my children instead of my husband. I have owned my home 16 years but have only been married to my present husband for 2.

You should meet with an estate planning attorney. If the property is your homestead property, you will need your husband's consent. Under Florida law, you can't devise away your homestead property if you have minor children or a spouse. In your situation the spouse receives a life estate, and the children a vested remainder.
