HOME OF EXTREME MOSAICS!
I have seen the commercials from ancestry.com where you can find out your family tree.....
they offered a free month trial, so I said, "what do I have to lose?"
I have been feeling low lately, my family is small, my dad passed a few years ago and I just buried my mom last month. I have one brother who up until recently lived three hours away, but his wife passed in a tragic car accident, and he has found someone who lives in BC which is many provinces away, and I was feeling sad that I will rarely see him.
My only sister was living three hours away in Sudbury and last year took a job 12 hours away in St. Catharines....
My dad only has one sister, in her eighties, who lives in California, whom I have only seen a handful of times in my life, due to distance, but I love her dearly and keep updated by phone.
that was my family....UNTIL RECENTLY.
I joined ancestry.com. SOMEONE FOUND ME.
My aunt, (dad's sister) apparently had a baby in her teens, and gave him up for adoption. Back then, it was the thing to do. THE BABY WAS A BOY, and he found me on ancestry.com. My aunt had never mentioned this to me, I guess it was a deep dark secret.
HE LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE MY FATHER!
He phoned me!!! he sounds like my father, acts like my father, and wants to meet me! he lives in Ottawa....
OH, I am so nervous and excited.
Wish me luck!!!!!
