Ten tiny little fingers
That always want to play
That never stop exploring
The wonder of today
Ten tiny little fingers
That from the very start
Will reach out for tomorrow
Yet always hold your heart

How sweet those words....and how sad that so many children suffer broken little fingers, and broken little toes....and broken little hearts. They have their bodies and their souls scarred for life, all because their parent or parents or care-giver or some other adult forgot how precious the little children are. They are a gift from God...to be cherished, and loved, and protected.
Won't you please join me in this crusade....we must save the children.
Below you will see a list of links to various sites dealing with child abuse....Please go to these places and learn what you can do to prevent this horror from happening....I do not believe that when the Lord said "Suffer the little children", he meant it literally.
