Caylee Anthony, She Deserved So much Better from her Family (Casey, Cindy, George & Lee Anthony) Eventually She Was Saved by her Father at Christmas

A Christmas Gift in Heaven … Caylee Anthony’s Unconditional Love.

A special Christmas wish to Caylee Anthony and all missing children during this Christmas season. In the end the little girl who had no father listed on her birth certificate; it was her Father who cared the most and her Father who brought her home for Christmas.

Christmas is supposed to be a time for giving, a time for thinking and doing for others, peace on earth and good will, and most importantly a time for children. Why especially a time for children? Of course there is nothing more special than to see a child’s reaction on Christmas day when they first come upon the sight of a decorated Christmas tree with lights, ornaments and presents beneath. The look of joy can never be described in words but can only be felt in one’s heart.  However, maybe its about a lot more when it comes to children … as it is the reason for the season as God steps in to right man’s wrongs and reminds us that Christ was born.

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for behold, I bring unto you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the City of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Caylee Anthony deserved so much more in her life here on this earth than she received. Caylee Anthony deserved a mother who cared more about her than of herself. Caylee Anthony deserved grandparents who cared more about finding her and bringing her home than they did protecting their daughter and their dysfunctional family. Caylee deserved a protecting uncle. Caylee deserved people who she was surrounded by to care enough to actually question where she might be rather than being caught up selfishly in their own lives. A two year old child is dependent on those around them and shame on them all for not caring enough to do so. In the end, it was her Father who cared most.

It is at least it is reassuring to know that she is in a much better place today with her Father. Gone is the pain and heartache of human selfishness, hate, anger, envy, ignorance and want. The Caylee Anthony story provides so many with questions of how could anyone do this to such a sweet, young, innocent girl. Life’s lesson to Caylee’s legacy is to love your children, cherish them as they are never supposed to be a burden to you, they are your greatest treasure. Caylee Anthony will forever know the true love that she should have experienced here on earth. Her unconditional love that she gave to those around her will now be reciprocated in more ways than she could ever dream. Caylee will experience eternal love and be at peace.

For the past six months missing Caylee Anthony has captured and tugged at the heart strings of Americans and those from other countries as well. The precious little girl who went missing on June 9; however, was not reported missing until July 16, 2008. The fact that her mother, Casey Anthony, never reported her daughter missing is not lost on anyone who has followed this case. Instead it took a 911 call from Cindy Anthony, the grandmother of missing Caylee Anthony. During this emotional 911 call is when Cindy Anthony made the reference that Casey’s car “smelled like death.”

However, following that statement Cindy and George Anthony, the grandparents of little Caylee circled the wagons and defended the indefensible. Instead of answers to where Caylee was, excuses of squirrels and pizza were made as to evidence that clearly showed that Caylee was no longer just missing, she was sadly dead. A child was missing, a car smelled like death, human decomposition and traces of chloroform were found in Casey’s car, the mother never reported the child missing, Casey lied to police from everything to where she worked to where she left Caylee with the babysitter. Even after the mountain of evidence was against Casey Anthony, Cindy and George Anthony protected her. Sadly, George and Cindy Anthony would even go so far as to ask for an immunity deal from the prosecution when the remains were found admitting at the very least that they had made “conflicting statements” to police.

Two year old Caylee Anthony only asked for love and in returned loved those around her unconditionally. Caylee deserved the respect on those that loved her to care more about finding her than for people to care more about protecting and defending in indefensible crime of murdering a child. Since when do grandparents not care more about their grandchildren than their own children? There is a rule of life that a parent is never supposed to bury their child. That rule is multiplied by infinity when it comes to a grandparent burying their grandchild. Where were those that were supposed to protect and bring Caylee home at all cost to themselves or their reputations? Unfortunately Caylee Marie Anthony was failed by those who were supposed to love her the most. As millions of caring citizens looked on in horror and outrage, one morning a black plastic bag was found less than 1/2 mile away from her grandparents home which would be later positively identified as little Caylee Anthony.

God provides us with free will and choice; however, in the end He does control all and steps in when we as humans fail miserably. Granted, we are sinner; however, in some cases some sins of man/women defy speech. Caylee Anthony was ultimately helped by those who knew her least. The Orange County Sheriffs department, the FBI, Texas Equusearch, the numerous volunteer searchers and all those nameless and faceless individuals who followed the case and prayed for her safe return. In the season of miracles, God stepped in and provided one more miracle during the Christmas season that allowed little Caylee Anthony to be found.

Memorial to Caylee Anthony

It is not the ending that any of us wanted; however, we can all be provided comfort that Caylee Anthony is in a much better place now without pain knowing only joy and love. Caylee’s Christmas and all days to come will be spent in heaven knowing only love, something that a child should only know. For those that remain here who should have done everything in their power to care for Caylee Anthony, they can only wait and wonder what will happen to them for their actions. To partially borrow a line from Titanic, the Anthony family can do nothing  but wait, wait for justice, wait for potential obstruction charges, wait to get beyond denial, wait to live with guilt, wait to die, and wait for an absolution that will never come.

Merry Christmas Caylee Anthony … May You Rest in Eternal Peace.
