How much do you remember about being five? I remember picture books and songs I loved, the rug I napped on in kindergarten, and my teacher’s polka-dot dress. I don’t believe any of my earliest memories involve a single specific event. They’re clearly repeated patterns; things that happened over and over. This fall Cleveland high school senior Julian Hernandez was filling college applications when he ran into a snag: there was a problem with his social security number. Julian and his high school guidance counselor investigated the matter and discovered that Julian has been on the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children database since 2002. Julian was kidnapped by his father in Alabama thirteen years ago. He is currently being held on charges related to the kidnapping and records tampering. A police spokesman reports Julian’s mother is ecstatic that he’s finally been found. “That’s the reason why you never give up,” he says, “You keep looking.”
