Mom Asks Strangers To Help Find Her Daughter’s Missing ‘Military Daddy Doll’

One mom just sent out a plea for help. Her daughter had a military “daddy doll” which featured a photo of her father on it. The doll helps to comfort her three-year-old while her father is deployed. Jessica Osborne’s husband is currently training with the Kentucky National Guard.

Some days the mother and daughter aren’t able to see or even speak to him. The doll helps her daughter to feel comforted when she can’t talk to her dad. Jessica’s two oldest daughters both have a doll while their father will be gone for a while.

It could also be on route from 48 to Bunnell Hill to Five Points. The daddy doll is a military stuffed doll with my husband’s military picture inside.”

Jessica said that it helps her daughters cope when their father is on duty. They love to look at his photo, hug the doll and keep it closeby. It gives them comfort, especially at bedtime. If you live in the area, please be on the lookout for this doll. Even if you don’t live in the Ohio area, please share the post on Facebook to help others locate it.
