I was EXCUSED!!! I called the jury manager this morning, after worrying about it all weekend, explained my situation to her, and was excused. She was very understanding, and explained to me that I was originally denied because they would like you to come in, tell the judge your story and he can excuse you himself. Well, after hearing my reason, she asked that I get a letter from the kids' school on their letterhead, stating that my triplets do indeed attend this school (a special needs school in my county) just to verify that my story was the true. The case manager at the school had no problem doing it and faxed it over to her

She also told me that I'd be taken out of the jury pool for 3 years, and if I get called after that and am in a similar situation, to just do the same thing. Wow, what a relief! Ever notice how things that need immediate attention seem to arrive in the mail on saturday, leaving you all weekend to think about it Thanks everyone again for your replies...
