He rises from a lieutenant to Rear- Admiral in the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic Wars. He was regarded as one of the best fighting captains in the Royal Navy. Sophia Aubrey (nee Williams) was Jack's wife. They had three children (two twin girls- Charlotte and Fanny and a boy, George). During Jack's often absents for months at a time he would have created this "Sailors Valentine" standing for his love for her and the children (heads represent twins- Charlotte and Fanny). </div><div><br /></div><div>On a personal note: I grew up in a sailing family. At the age of eight my parents took me out of school for over a year. We sailed from Miami to Venezuela and down the east coast. My daughter was born when my father was crossing the Pacific Ocean on a 27 foot sail boat. My parents now spend their winters sailing the Bahamas. For this I do understand the long hours spent at sea with no contact with loved ones. </div><div><br /></div></span><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EK7hWzX1Uv4/SdEmE7CcmUI/AAAAAAAAABM/_tryEcnp5dM/s1600-h/IMG_2052.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EK7hWzX1Uv4/SdEmE7CcmUI/AAAAAAAAABM/_tryEcnp5dM/s320/IMG_2052.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319074500910553410" border="0" /></a>Jelly fish earrings<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EK7hWzX1Uv4/SdEmEazk-0I/AAAAAAAAABE/Z0s486dkHVY/s1600-h/IMG_2048.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EK7hWzX1Uv4/SdEmEazk-0I/AAAAAAAAABE/Z0s486dkHVY/s320/IMG_2048.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319074492258253634" border="0" /></a>Star earrings<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EK7hWzX1Uv4/SdEmELvw4cI/AAAAAAAAAA8/fX66jCK4ydQ/s1600-h/IMG_2049.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EK7hWzX1Uv4/SdEmELvw4cI/AAAAAAAAAA8/fX66jCK4ydQ/s320/IMG_2049.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319074488215724482" border="0" /></a>flower earrings<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EK7hWzX1Uv4/SdEmDU0LdfI/AAAAAAAAAA0/j2mNfgPk6ik/s1600-h/IMG_2330.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EK7hWzX1Uv4/SdEmDU0LdfI/AAAAAAAAAA0/j2mNfgPk6ik/s320/IMG_2330.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319074473470293490" border="0" /></a>Buttons</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6771999911338433951-1046258555345701395?l=anniediditstudio.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>by anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16024253098583013960noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6771999911338433951.post-33097525161384986212010-03-17T09:07:00.000-07:002010-12-01T08:21:46.763-08:00Coming soon!<div><div> </div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6771999911338433951-3309752516138498621?l=anniediditstudio.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>by anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16024253098583013960noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6771999911338433951.post-63128543368776670612009-03-30T11:28:00.000-07:002009-03-31T11:14:26.334-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EK7hWzX1Uv4/SdEaMnuVFFI/AAAAAAAAAAs/oFUmTAdSNZ0/s1600-h/IMG_0762.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EK7hWzX1Uv4/SdEaMnuVFFI/AAAAAAAAAAs/oFUmTAdSNZ0/s320/IMG_0762.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319061439025321042" border="0" /></a>My mom (Suzy) in Lucio Bubacco's Studio in Murano, Italy.
