About the Author

The mother of four daughters, Yolanda Bryant would refer to herself as, "The Happy Homemaker." In an age where staying home with children gave the impression you were not doing much, Yolanda challenged anyone that suggested that was the case. From being a PTA president, to presiding over the women's Relief Society several times in different states, to starting Neighborhood Watch in her area, to knocking on doors (with babies in a stroller) to get signatures to stop a casino from being built nearby, Yolanda was always engaged in reaching out to help others, while still enjoying the antics of her energetic daughters. Yolanda lives in the Denver area. Besides her passion for CASA and for writing, she enjoys various activities with her husband, Michael, including biking, long walks, tennis, and road trips.
