I agree it's a bruise, I have a photo album full of pics like that ! my grandsons are very active.

As a 4 yo my brother went missing from our yard at 9am, police searches turned up nothing. At 6 pm, a neighbour found him asleep on her verandah, on a day bed.

Your story is interesting.  A paper on searches for lost children was considered about 20 years ago (but never written) because it was observed that while searchers and police always assumed that the children had roamed a long way and therefore searched further away, the children were almost always found very close to home, in dams or elsewhere.  It was important, because time is always important to the outcome.  Hopefully they have learned from experience since then.

I'm wondering if there is more to this, there hasn't been any information regarding the family or have I missed it? There hasn't been any mention of the Mother was she with them at the grandmother's home?? or was she still in Sydney are they parted?
