Do you get health insurance benefits with the day job?
If so, keep it for now.
Getting insurance for you, your wife, and 2 kids is friggin' expensive when you're self-employed.
Wait until you're doing $10k/mo and then quit the day job. That will give you enough money to easily replace the health insurance without blinking and it will take long enough that you'll have moved past the big Visa crackdown and possibly the summer slowdown as well.
Dunno how long you've been doing this, but keep the job through at least one summer slowdown before making your decision.
There's just too many things coming up in the next few months that could really shake shit up and knock your income around - play it safe. If you didn't have kids I'd say go for it, but you gotta put them and their stability first.
