Not an expert. I think the lady bird is also a life estate. I would check to see that if you used this type of deed you could sell the property without getting permission of the beneficiary. I do not think you can.
I think in Fl if your home qualifies as homestead and your will leaves it to your children you can avoid probate if this is what your are trying to do. After you do your research I would discuss with an estate attorney.
