One woman has taken to social media to recall a heartwarming story of three incredible acts of kindness from three complete strangers while flying with her young children in a busy airport.
The mum took to Facebook to heap on the praise after the woman each helped calm her screaming and exhausted children to give her a break while flying alone.
While waiting in line for security, the woman says that her two and five-year-old boys were crying and tired, meaning she was also on the verge of tears.

But a woman in the same queue a few people ahead noticed her plight, and stepped out to help.
The woman wrote: "So I thought it was a good idea to fly by myself with a 2 yr old and a 5 year old [sic].
"We were standing in line in security, on the verge of tears because Wyatt was screaming and James was exhausted. Out of the blue, one mom stops the line for security and says "here, jump in front of me! I know how it is!"."

But she wasn't the only person to try and help, as another woman also noticed that the mum was struggling to carry everything as she tried to make her way onto the plane.
She continued: "Wyatt fell asleep and I was trying to carry everyone's carry-on when another mom jumps out of her place in line and says "hand me everything, I've got it".
"When I said thank you to both of them they said "don't you worry, we're going to make sure you get on that flight".

"The second woman takes evvvverything and helps me get it through security and, on top of all that, she grabs all of it and walks us to the gate to make sure we get on the flight."
And it didn't stop there either, as another kind woman also came to the woman's rescue.
The mum-of-two continued: "To top it all off, Wyatt starts to scream at take off before he finally falls back to sleep.
"After about 45 min, this angel comes to the back and says "you look like you need a break" and holds Wyatt for the rest of the flight AND walks him all the way to baggage claim, hands him to blake, hugs me and says "merry Christmas!!"."
