Since Sophia has been diagnosed with Lymphoma, we thought it would be nice to meet up with her rescuer and her former foster parents again. Today we got a chance to reintroduce Sophia to her foster parents Joy and Jim Odom. It had been 5-1/2 years since they’ve seen each other. The Odoms took great care of her after she was rescued, and almost didn’t adopt her out to us because they’d fallen in love with her. I’m so happy they did, because she adds so much to our lives. Thanks Joy and Jim for all you did for her! What a special moment!
Sophia’s former foster parents

Welcome to my online home since 2004. I blog a bit about my life as it happens, my work as I am permitted, and occasional throwback entries. When I'm not writing new posts, I actively curate this blog, improving the wording or adding new media to old posts, and finally finishing old drafts I've left sitting for years. It is not my intention to be a source of news or content. I don’t have anything to sell, and I’m not trying to get likes/shares/follows. This site is an autobiographical effort - imperfections and all. My life, remembered in my words, my way.
When known, I include credit for photos in the captions. Contact me for photo credit or removal. *Side note: If you make one of my Mother's recipes, I'd be happy to post a photo of the finished product in the corresponding post, and give you full photo credit.
