Last night my son played a trick on me, he was hiding behind the front door for 15min while i called his name desperately looking for him. He has never done that before and that was the worst feeling a mother can ever feel. For this little girls family you are in my thoughts and prayers and in this hard time i pray God keeps his arms around you until your little girls is returned.
