Biography

Happily married, 49 years old, mother of 5 grown kids; currently mom to two more boys, ages 10 and 15, that we took custody of in 2007.

My husband and I run a rescue farm for abandoned, neglected, and abused critters, mostly farm animals. Our farm is called "Welcome Comfort Farm".

For the last 8 years, I have worked for children's author/illustrator, Patricia Polacco as her Director of Operations. Basically, that means I oversee and do most everything! Patricia's farm is called "Meteor Ridge Farm".

Our farms are located about 5 miles from each other.
