Hi- I also missed several important momenst in my life in this battle. I don't know your visa status. If you have a green card then it is worth trying in family medicine. If you do number of externships with family physician, it would definitely help.
If you want you can take one step at a time. From my expereince it is ok even if you are an old grad. All you need is good scores and clinical experience.
Take some time off. Enjoy your time with kids. Once you are ready then start taking exams.
Take more time for preparation but don't negelct your kids. You won't have any peace of mind.
You can also consider about some other alternative career (clinical research).
Think carefully- what is more imprtant in your life then plan accordingly.
Nothing is impossible.
all the best
