Sandra Nicholson: Back Story to The Confession

The Jamieson Legacy

by Pat Simmons

Sandra Nicholson has made good and bad choices throughout the years, but the best one was to give her life to Christ when her sons were small and to rear them up in the best Christian way she knew how. That was thirty something years ago and Sandra has evolved from a young single mother of two rambunctious boys, Kidd and Ace Jamieson, to a godly woman seasoned with wisdom. Despite the challenges and trials of rearing two strong-willed personalities, Sandra maintained her sanity through the grace of God, which kept gray strands at bay.But there is something to be said about a woman's first love. Kidd and Ace Jamieson’s father, Samuel Jamieson broke their mother's heart. Can Sandra recover? Her sons don't believe any man is good enough for her, especially their absentee father. Kidd doesn’t deny his mother should find love again since she never married Samuel. But will she fall for a carbon copy of his father? God's love gives second chances.

Sandra Nicholson

This back story to The Confession was really enlightening. Sandra Nicholson story was worth being shared. After raising her two boys, the empty nester is kinda lonely too.
