Gap in Resume and a little about me

Dear Human Resources Department,

My first name is Isabel, but I go by the name Lucy

You will see that I've a big gap in my resume due to me raising a family. We opened a Finance Planning business, which allowed me to look after the kids and do lots of different part-time work to work around everyone.  

Unfortunately, we have now divorced, and the kids have grown, and I'm ready to get back into full-time work.

Thank you, and I hope to hear back from you.
