She ran as fast as her little legs could carry her but her kidnapper was advancing fast. She held her note close to her chest as mud splashed upon her bare arms and legs leaving streaks on her daisy patterned shorts.

At six I called the kids in to eat and Phoebe never returned with the others. She still hasn’t returned. I’m awfully worried.” Maureen had started to cry.

The young tyke was shaping up to be like her mother everyday, in kindness, beauty and strength.
“Calm down missy. I will send out a party to search as soon as I can and you just get some rest. She probably just wandered too far and got lost in the fields. I’ll see you in the morn where we can look further into details and maybe search a little harder.”
