Blue eyes, babies got blue eyes!  / Angela Stolz (just another day thinking about you )

 Why does this happen to babies. I wish I could bring you and all the other children back and wrap you all safely in my arms. I dont understand what makes people so mean. I have been so consumed with heartbreak for all of you little kids. When I think about whats going on in this world I ask myself...why do people who rob banks steal cars and things like that serve more time than people who kill babies rape babies????? What is wrong with the judicial system? Seems to me that they have it backwards.

Kelsey...I will not keep my mouth shut if I ever see something bad happen to children. This is a promise I will keep to you. I dont care who it is my best friend family I just dont care. It makes me sick to think that people can do these horrible things to the most precious of us all our kids.

RIP sweet little Angel....You are such a beautiful baby girl and I really truly hope you are having fun in Heaven. You deserved so much more from the one who was supposed to protect you at all costs.

I will never forget you....  / Angela Stolz (still a sad passerby )

I love this picture so much. What a beautiful little princess! I wish so much that I was able to meet her. I just want to pick her up and cuddle with her. She has the most amazing little smile. I cannot get her out of my mind. Why are people so cruel? I will never understand. What kind of monster could harm a child? What kind of mother would allow someone to put their hands on an innocent child. I would die for my kid's. Kelsey sweetheart...you were too good for your mother and that thing that was called your stepfather. I wish for you all the fun times in heaven with all the other angel babies. Even though I didnt know you I feel so much love in my heart for a little girl who should have had a full life with all the things you should have been able to experience. Kelsey I will do what I can for you and that would be to alway's keep a watch for child abuse. I make this promise...if I ever see anything bad happen to a child I will make sure it is reported to the police. I will do it for you Kelsey and for all the victims of abuse. Lots of Love from a friend who cares.xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

US observer article shares different angle  / Dora W. (none)

An article by the US observer puts things in perspective. All around Kelsey have been witnesses to the abuse in one way or another which does not exonerate the mother or the family involved. Mei you be able to live in peace with the decisions you made.

Brokenhearted / Hailley B. (Heartbroken onlooker )
To kelsey's family especially her father Lance I do not know you but I am truely heartbroken. My daughter is 14 months old and it seems a lot like kelsey. Headstrong active and sweeter than anyone can imagine. I cannot understand how anyone can look at the beautiful face of an angel and intentionally hurt them. I also can't understand what kind of mother could allow such harm to come to their baby girl. I will pray for your family always. I know that people shouldn't wish bad on anyone but for someone to knowingly hurt an innocent child who isn't even old enough to know what is going on or to do anything about it then that coward should be killed. I am truely sorry for your loss and that horrible man should get the death penalty. Everyday people get the death penalty for accidents and he intentionally brought harm that ulltimately caused the death of this precious angel and got a slap on the wrist. Well if he had only slapped kelsey's wrist then maybe but to sexually and physically abuse a baby then you should have to face the same consequences! To lance thank you for your service so very much but I think in this case the cost of freedom was far too high!!! I do not know you or your daughter but all of my love is with you as I know this is the hardest thing you will ever face! There are no words to stop the pain but I hope that someday this world will see the wrong they can do and I know the hardest thing must be that the country you were fighting for and the reason you could not be here protecting this precious angel is also the country that failed you and more importantly Kelsey! Love always and God bless Hailley (a loving mother of another of God's blessings just like Kelsey) Close

HEARTBROKEN / Lisa Smyth (none just completey heartbroken )

angel / Danielle Stencil (none)
to the family of this little angel i am so sorry for your loss. i will keep you in my prayers... even though i never met this sweet child she has touched my life in an unimaginable way ... rest in peace beautiful child.... i hope that the "system" that is in place stops failing our innocent children with the parents is NOT always the answer.

from the other side of the world...  / Nicola
I became aware of Kelsey's plight on a child abuse site on facebook. I live in Australia so had not heard her story before. I watched a video of this precious priceless little girl and was completely devastated.
My sincerest condolences to her father and grandparents how can a mother let this happen???? How can she let some guy do this to her child? Don't people value their kids? I don't have children but my mother always put us first before any boyfriend and took every possible step to ensure our safety.
This little angel deserved better than this and I will never get this awful truly devastating story out of my head.
My heart goes out to you and to the thousands of other families whose children have been taken by vile disgusting "human beings" who place no value on human life.
She was robbed of her life the people responsible will pay. My heart goes out to you her family. Close

always on my mind  / May

I came across videos of Kelsey a couple of days ago on youtube. It's been a couple of day and i still cannot get her beautiful face out of my mind. I cried and i couldn't bare reading about the tragedy that happened to her but for some reason i could not stop looking her up or even watching the videos no matter how painful it was to see all the bruises on her. I have a two year old daughter and i just think we complain everyday about every little thing little do we know there's two year olds out there who have bigger problems than us. The only problem is they cannot complain or even tell anyone that they are hurting. Kelsey touched me so much i feel so much pain just thinking of what she was going through. I cannot get over the pictures of the last time she saw her paternal family for the last time the augustus before she died. There is not a day that I haven't thought of her. I hope she knows how much she is loved by so many people. I'm sorry her family lost such a precious soul. I hope one day she will meet again all the people she loved here on earth

Chilren are here to love....  / Angela Stolz (just a sad passerby )

Kelsey sweetheart

I didn't have the honor of knowing you but I wish I did. You were a beautiful little baby girl who should have been treasured. I believe your daddy treasured you and I feel so bad for the pain he must feel without you in his arms. You are one of God's precious angels and no harm can ever come to you again. I cry for all of you children who had to endure so much in your short lives. I hope and pray that you are playing happily in heaven with all the other angels. Rest in peace sweet little girl. I will alway's remember you in my prayers.  So much love is being sent your way from me to you! Love forever and a day Angela xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Social Issues  / Dynasty Mays

Hello I am currently enrolled in school for early childhood development. I am taking a class called social issues which deals with cases as such. When my instructor showed this video on Kelsey my heart dropped to the floor. I knew of abuse but who in their right mind could even sleep at night knowing that they are injuring and even killed a baby?????? I can not say I know your pain however I can imagine the hurt and despair you have endured. You have my sympathy and utmost respect. Be strong and do be encouraged.

Little angel  / Jennifer Huff

Being the mother of a 2 year old it just hurts me to think someone could hurt a litttle baby in such a way. Hurts even more to know the biological mother was involved with it. I watched this video and i just sit and wonder why as im bawling my eyes out. Why did the system fail this family like this. All i can say is i will think about little kelsey everyday and her family. My heart and prayers goes out to her family. She is in a much better place now. No more pain and suffering .. Rest in peace little kelsey

Kelsey / Jonni Spencer (none)

My heart really goes out to Kelsey's family. I watched her video for the first time yesterday and I cried. I have a 2 year old daughter blonde hair blue eyes she reminded me of Kelsey. To think that such a precious little girl was taken from this earth so soon in life at the hands of the ones who were suppose to protect and love her. I can't begin to understand the pain that her family is in. It makes me mad at the judge for granting her mother custody again when so many bad things had already happened to Kelsey under her care. I wish that there was something that I could do. My heart is broken.

My heart aches  / Dana Gustafson

The video was very powerful and very moving. Even though it tore a whole in my heart and tugged on my emotions I want to thank you for sharing her story.

How could she the mother of this child allow this to happen to her  precious little angel. WHY? She had a family that loved and cared for her why didn't she just leave her where she was safe. What a beautiful little angel she was! How could the system fail her like it fails so many other precious children? The sentence that her mother and step dad recieved was not nearly harsch enough for what they put that precious little angel through! My heart goes out to you and your family. GOD is making sure noone ever will hurt yours and his precious child.
