The adoptive mother, Anne, a strong and kind-hearted young woman, wholeheartedly embraced young Sophie into her family. Sophie, a charming and intelligent teenager, had gone through tremendous hardships after a horrifying accident that left her nose severely damaged, rendering her unable to smell anything around her.
Prior to joining her foster family, Sophie had to face both sympathetic and disdainful gazes from society. She often found herself lost and ostracized by peers due to her unique appearance. However, since meeting Anne, Sophie’s life took a complete turn.
Anne proved herself to be not just a wise foster mother but also a dependable companion to Sophie. She taught the young girl to overcome challenges, cherish her own worth, and not let this loss hinder her life. Every day, they together learned how to face the judgmental glances of others with confidence and joy.

‘I rᴇmᴇmbᴇr that Muппi aпd I wᴇrᴇ driviпg homᴇ from thᴇ part oпᴇ day aпd my casᴇ workᴇr callᴇd sayiпg: “Wᴇ havᴇ a littlᴇ girl for you aпd you’d bᴇ a pᴇrfᴇct family for hᴇr”, aпd I told hᴇr to sᴇпd hᴇr iпformatioп ovᴇr immᴇdiatᴇly,’ Kristᴇп rᴇmᴇmbᴇrᴇd.
