They just gave a News Alert here on the local Cleveland News, the bodies of the two missing New Hampshire children that were abducted and killed by their father two years ago have been found in Hudson, Ohio. They where in a very remote area just off a main road that is heavily traveled. DH & I where just on that road two weeks ago on our way to the JoAnn Fabrics ETC at the Main Headquarters in Hudson. This is only a 20-25 minute drive from my house.
The mother of the children was in the area this past fall hoping to search for the bodies. Now she is finding out that she was as close as 5 miles to them when she was here, but it was cut short because of bad storms.
My heart goes out to her and her family. At least she will have a Peaceful Christmas knowing that her babies are now resting in peace and with God.

That was just so terribly sad. I can't imagine what was going through her mind, or the fathers, when he killed them. What a horrible experience to have to live with. But like you said, at least she has the closure of knowing for sure where they are, I think it would make you stir crazy not knowing, always hoping.

They where talking more about the women who found them on the news last night. I guess she had heard the story on the News and decided to go out on her own to try and find the children, she has been doing it everyday since this summer when the mother had to call of her hunt because of the weather.
The women always took her dog with her and I guess it picked up something in the dirt and just dropped to the ground and layed ontop of the children and would gently dig at the dirt. The dog had never done this before so the women know then that something must be there so that's when she called the Sheriff. Even when she had to find a spot for her phone to get a signal the dog stayed with the children and wouldn't move.
