Overview

Dedicated to all of the town folks of Hickory Corners, Michigan; where I, along with my sister and three brothers were born&raised, and for all the farmers in our country who work religiously from sunrise to setting sun to fill our tables with food. Also, in loving memory of my dear Grandparents, the Rev. Victor&Luella Jones, who taught us all about gardening, canning, cooking, sewing and for whose farm, my younger siblings&I spent most of our memorable days playing with, and caring for all of the many animals. We are also very grateful to them for teaching their eight children, plus some thirty six grandchildren how to be good Christians.

About the Author

Sandy, born June 1948, was the oldest of Duane and Vera Newington's five children; and the mother of four wonderful kids. She grew up in the small town of Hickory Corners, Michigan. At age sixteen, she began teaching young children baton twirling along with some gymnastics, and dance classes while attending Gull Lake High School and up until 1990. She graduated from Lake Michigan Nursing Program with honors; followed by training in the specialty area of Obstetrics. In 1987, she and her family relocated to Walterboro, South Carolina, where she continued her nursing career in Labor and Delivery until retiring in December 2012. She holds her entire family very dear, and has a huge passion for babies, poetry, and needle crafts of all kinds. Following retirement she began blending all of her passions together by writing children stories with subtle messages through the art of light­hearted poems to entertain her grandkids. Most of her characters are named for family members, who seem to get a kick out of it. All her illustrations are embroidered on her sewing machine. The stories are also based between her home state of Michigan and her current residence of South Carolina. In October 2019, she was juried into the South Carolinian Artisan Association as a new artist for her story books; which are on display at the South Carolina Artisans Center in Walterboro.
