A little bit about me

I am well established with children of all ages. I had three biological children, but raised 6. I have 3 grandchildren whom I spent their early years caring for while my daughter worked. They are amazing. I love children and am looking to get out of the house and expand my horizons. I am 69 years old and healthy. I don't like having to explain myself in this fashion it's too impersonal.
