About Me

Hello and Welcome to my website!

My name is Silvia, I am a wife & mom to 3 boys, 1 in heaven, 2 on earth, ages 16 and 9. I was born and raised in Italy and I moved to the US to study English while I lived with my aunt, and as the story goes... one thing led to another and I never returned. I do miss Italy and my family dearly, we do plan to retire there to be among family.

I am a graphic artist, photographer, author, webmaster, blogger and more. I just received a double degree in Graphic Design & Digital Photograph from Antelope Valley College and I love what I do.​

What’s in a name you may ask… why ‘Sleeping Angel”? I dedicate my work and everything I have done and I have become to my son, Alex, who was stillborn at full term. He is and will always be my ‘Sleeping Angel’. You can read the story of his short life in my book 'Losing Alex', which is now available for the Kindle and on paperback both at Amazon and at Lulu.com

Alex's little brother Nicky was born 18 months later with a devastating skin condition called Epidermolysis Bullosa (Recessive Dystrophic). His skin is as fragile as a butterfly’s wing which can blister at the slightest touch — even from my cuddles. Normal day-to-day life causes constant pain and scarring, which leads to disfigurement and disability. If you would like more information about this very rare condition, please visit my website @ ebinfoworld.com. I am currently writing a book about Nicky's life which I plan to release in late 2014, shortly after Nicky's 18th Birthday. I start the book with Alex's story, which I released separately in an effort to help moms facing similar situations.

I was also lucky enough to have a healthy son, Connor, and the fact that he's normal and healthy is something I never, ever take it for granted. I truly thank my lucky stars every single day that I look into his eyes.

But that’s not all. For several years I wrote a column for parents of special need children called ‘Special Mommy Chronicles’. In 2006 I turned that column into a book available directly from the Publisher and also at Amazon & Barnes & Noble (for both paperback & Nook) and it’s also available for the Kindle and in the iBookstore in iTunes.

Another book I published is a series of stories of families called ‘Living with Epidermolysis Bullosa’. That book is also available directly from the Publisher and also as a paperback at both Amazon (for both paperback & Kindle) & Barnes & Noble and is also available in the iBookstore in iTunes.

I've been interested in photography and graphic arts all my life. I was only 10 years old when I took my mom's shoebox full of photos and made picture albums for everyone in the family. I never remember not bringing a camera anywhere I ever went in my entire life. My love for Genealogy has led me to the path of taking old photos and fixing them to their original glory. On my blog you will find TONS of Free Incredimail Letters, plus my latest photos and my inspirations, my favorite quotes put over my personal photos. I have made these available as magnets and other trinkets if you are interested. My Facebook page is a lot of fun too, I mostly post inspirations, so please like it today!!

If you need a photo restored or would like a quote, please feel free to contact me! Let's chat!

Thank you for visiting!
