I'm a writer and a photographer, and I view the world with wide-eyed wonder. No cynicism or weltschmertz for me! I prefer a mystical view, where scientific knowledge informs rather than restricts. What is she talking about? A magical world! And it's all magic if you look it from a certain perspective.Check out the myspaces of my three biological kids - Gabriel, Ariel and Nick. And don't forget my 'add-ons': Josh, Jordan, Dustin - they qualify as 'mine' because of the amount of time they've spent in my home (not to mention the quantities of food consumed!) And my great son-in-law and my BEAUTIFUL grandbaby! :)I love my dogs - Synch, a 15-year-old Border Collie, and 1-year-old Aphrodite, a gentle and loving lab mix.I love music (all kinds - jazz, classical, country, rock - bring it on!), especially live performances, ESPECIALLY Nick's. He'll be famous some day.To see my work, check out my website: www.cherierenae.com
