Most likely the green card was terminated due to abandonment because you cannot remain a green card holder if you are not living permanently in the US.  However, if one of your children is 21 years of age, he/she can petition for your green card once again, if you are no longer married to the US citizen husband.  Please let me know if you have any additional questions or need assistance with this matter.
