Anamcara's Bio
 

I am the proud, single (and occasionally insane) mother of four incredible children who have taught me more than I ever thought possible about patience, passion and perspective.  Ranging in age from 16 to 4, my children look at this world through the lenses of dyslexia, Asperger's, ADHD/anxiety disorder, and PDD-NOS.  An easy ride, it isn't, but life certainly isn't boring!


In addition to my 2-legged children, I have a menagerie that includes 4 horses, 2 dogs, 5 cats, and the occasional reptile or amphibian creature. 


In my personal life (what's that?!) I am a musician, midwife, and stained glass artist.  I have a variety of interests that totally depends on my time constraints and mood.
