One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I raised 3 kids alone for 30 years ...that was amazing I never thought I would see the end of that long road. and its been worth it, now Im a proud grandmother. On my genealogy research I found an extension of my family in canada, and two years ago I travelled to Canada alone to meet 30 of them!! Montreal and Niagara Falls for 22 days...I dont think I'll ever have a trip as amazing as that again....or will I?
