Baby Grace
We, as a nation, should indeed be touched by the story of “Baby Grace”.
This week near Galveston, TX a plastic storage box washed ashore on a small island and inside was the body of a dead child.
Authorities have been unable to identify the girl based on missing persons reports and have finally released composite sketches in hopes that someone, somewhere will recognize the little girl.
The little one was two or three years old with long, blonde hair down to the middle of her back. She was dressed in a pink shirt and a matching skirt and white sneakers with pink flowers embroidered on them. All appearances would indicate she has been loved and cared for at some point. The Galveston County medical examiner has said the child suffered skull fractures, but that he found no other broken bones.
What happened to this child? Who is she and does someone miss her? Why was she hidden in the storage container and put into the water?
Tragic things happen to children every day and that needs to be a reality to all of us. We need to notice when a child is gone. We need to care that a dead child washed ashore.
I pray that someone offers a tip that solves this mystery.
Here is a link to ABC’s story with the pictures.
