In Iowa, the landlord is required to give you a three day notice if you are late with the rent.  You can still avoid eviction by paying the rent before the three day period elapses.

Unfortunately, the fact that you have four small children is not going to stop eviction.  However, again you can still avoid eviction by paying the rent before the three day period expires.
