If he left all of his assets to the children it is hard to say. Need to know where you live. These things vary by state and country. It also depends on if you live in a place where marital assets are also yours or are they just the mans. If you live in the US apply for his Social Security for the children. What does the will say about you? Please give some more information. If the will was read by his lawyer you should be able to ask him about some things.
