I get bent out of shape and rant and rave about all sorts of stuff, but 
this is one story that almost made me cry. Perhaps it's because I have three children myself, one of whom is four years old herself.
Last Thursday three year old Maddie McCann disappeared, most like abducted, from her bed in an apartment in Portugal. She and her younger brother and sister as well as their parents were on vacation. Her parents do like most parents and check on their kids every twenty or thirty minutes.
When her mother checked on them at 10PM she discovered that the window was open and Maddie was missing. A witness claims to have seen a bald man and a woman walking quickly away from the area with a young blond girl. Portuguese Police are suggesting that it is possible that Maddie was abducted for a pedophile ring. Just the thought of it makes me want to cry or perhaps go shoot one of those stupid pedophiles.
Thanks to Princesse Ecossaise for the story and the links. Since my blogs are all US based I may be of no help whatsoever, but this story really touches me and anything that I can do to help is still very little. I also got the picture from her site as well.
I am going to cross-post this at all of my sites, www.shadowscope.com, www.theapp.net, newhomessales.net, and blogs.myspace.com/shadowscope and since he is out of town I will post this over at Eric's place as well.

Thankyou, shadowscope, thankyou so very much for all you have done. It may not seem a lot but if we bloggers unite to help, to offer support, to pray and to spread the information then we will perhaps reach someone out there who knows something. Thanks again.
