i don't know if you've been following this story but for the past ten years our city has been looking for and holding vigils for two young girls 14 & 16 who were kidnapped a year apart from the same part of town.
Their parents never gave up, you can still see fliers posted on telephone poles and store windows all throughout the city, faded but still there. Every anniversary, birthday, holiday the families held vigils and prayed and the community searched and prayed with them.
And then Monday they were found, along with another young woman no one knew was kidnapped.
This all happened within a mile of where I grew up and the girls were kidnapped just several blocks from where difficult child lives now.
These parents never gave up, they never accepted the fact that they could be dead. They always knew they would be found.
We celebrate with those families today and are reminded that there are miracles that happen every day.
So fellow SA mom's and dad's don't give up, never give up!
