Our Lost Children
Part One
Part Two

I was so glad when I read that the little month old baby that was just kidnapped had been found. It's really awfull. We had to report our baby girl missing when she was two years old. She was playing with her friend in her room, her friends mom and I were talking in the kitchen. A few minutes later we couldn't hear anything... we looked EVERYWHERE! The girls were gone. It was awfull. My husband called the police, then he and the friend drove around the neighborhood looking for them. When the police arrived, they found the girls playing hide and seek. They had wedged themselves behind our couch... and then when we were calling, we sounded so upset that they were scared to answer. We have been more careful since... it was an experience that I never want to repeat.

I have a simular story, not about my children but about me. When I was about two, I had fallen asleep behind the curtains of our sliding glass door. Since I was asleep, I didn't wake to my mom calling for me, and of course the only place they never looked for me at was the one place I was. My mom called the police and fire dept. because I was missing - behind the curtains the police found me.

Although not funny while it was happening, we do get a good laugh out of it now.

My prayers go out to those families whose children aren't found so easily.
