Wow. Two posts in one day. A record.
I know I have written about a blog that I enjoy reading. It is called Sentiments by Sophia. I don't remember how I ran across her blog, but I have been reading it for over three years now, probably four years. I get tired just reading about how much Sophia does in a day. I don't know if I am jealous, amazed, or just tired after reading her adventures. She appears to be very creative, always doing all out for everything she does. She really decorates for parties and holidays and puts in all the little touches that I am not talented to do. She seems to make everything look great. I read her entries almost every day. If I have missed a few days, I will read back and catch up on what is happening to her and her family. But I'm not the only one in the world to do so. I know that she has many followers.
Anyway, because of school I haven't had time to read up blog the past few weeks so one day last week I took a bit of time for myself to catch up on the adventures of Sophia. I knew that she was hosting a bridal shower a few weekend ago, so I knew that I would see pictures of the fun decorations, table-scapes, and food. Scrolling backwards I first came to the entry for the wedding of her nephew, Tyson. Looking at that picture of them coming out of the Logan Temple, I recognized his new bride! She is a girl from here in Orangeville, was one of my third-graders, I taught piano to her, she is in my ward.....I knew that girl! It was Carol Ann Snow! What a surprise. I looked back to the bridal shower and sure enough, there she was! (The decorations were cute, too.)
Now I was more than excited to go to the wedding reception here, not just to congratulate CarolAnn on her wedding, but to meet the family of Sophia. We stopped into the reception early because we had to go to the football game (Garth was on gate duty). I was kindly introduced to CarolAnn's new mother-in-law, the sister-in-law to Sophia. We had a nice conversation about Sophia, as well as the bride and groom.
It was then that I realized that CarolAnn's new last name is Barrett, the same name as my son's first name. Another small world. Then I found out that they live in Providence, which is near Millville, so I asked her if she happens to know my nephew, Devon. She was so excited about Devon! She said she had asked him out to a Girl's Choice Dance when they were in high school. She was good friends with Devon's wife, Lee. In fact, she and Lee went to nursing school together. She told me that Lee was helping her son, Tyson, to get an internship with the doctor that she works with. (Barrett also did some work with Dr. O'very). I told her that my son was now a doctor, working at Pediatric Care, and she got really excited again! She knows the doctors there very well, and in fact, she thinks she has met "the new doctor" just recently.
So, be careful how you act. You never know who knows someone you know. Always be on your best behavior. And read Sentiments of Sophia.
