I grew up in a small town in North Carolina, with loving parents, two older brothers, and more aunts, uncles and cousins than you could count. Each Sunday, our church service ended with the congregation singing the J.E. Rankin hymn, God Be With You Till We Meet Again. As a child, this song signaled the end of having to sit still in church, and the commencement of a big “Sunday Dinner” and an afternoon of play. Now each time go back to my home church, I sing this song, knowing that each day is precious and each person that I love is to be cherished.
As a former Atlanta, Life Flight Nurse specializing in trauma care and labor and delivery, I have had many opportunities to witness relationships undergoing life changing events. Some events, like the birth of a child are joy-filled and full of promise. Then there are those events that alter lives forever. My heart has ached on many occasions as I have heard the last words of love spoken at the bedside.
My passion, my business and my jewelry designs are about helping people express their love and concern for others, much like my career in nursing. In fact I’d like to think that I am nursing the hearts of others everyday as my little creations serve others. Sharing the Loving Heart Collection by Jean Schnaak® with others and having the privilege of hearing how these little hearts are “working” in peoples’ lives is a wonderful and rewarding way to spend my days.
To love intentionally has an immeasurable effect upon the world far beyond our understanding.
Through this blog I hope to express my love more intentionally and to inspire others to do the same.

I like the way you write. Your style is very smooth and I enjoy reading your posts. I’m headed to the dentist but will be back later.
Can I simply say what a reduction to seek out someone who truly is aware of what theyre speaking about on the internet. You undoubtedly know tips on how to convey an issue to light and make it important. Extra people have to learn this and understand this side of the story. I cant believe youre not more in style because you definitely have the gift.
Youre so cool! I don’t suppose I’ve learn anything like this before. So nice to search out somebody with some original ideas on this subject. Really thanks for starting this up. This website is something that’s wanted on the net, someone with somewhat originality. Useful job for bringing one thing new to the internet!
