I was a clear, brisk spring day in Woodstock, Ontario. A Wednesday, a day like many others that had come and were expected to still be in the future. An eight year old girl was on her way home from school to her brand new house where she lived with her mom, Tara and her brother Daryn. She had just started the painstaking process of getting her room together just how she wanted it the night before. She had decorated the room with posters and toys that showed off her true loves in life, Disney princesses, bratz dolls and high school musical. That evening she was going to spend the evening with her dad, Rodney, and then watch a movie with some of her friends. Unfortunately though, those plans were not going to be fulfilled as every parent’s worst nightmare came true on April 8th, 2009.
