Christine Koh reports that when she was strolling through the Public Garden with her daughter Laurel the other day, she told Laurel how glad she was that Pack had been reunited with his family after having been ducknapped.

Laurel, 5, was aghast at the thought that one of the ducklings could go missing, so when they got home, she composed a letter to Boston Police with a suggestion on how to keep it from happening again.

There is just something irresistibly cute and quintessentially Bostonian about little kids dressed up like ducks for the annual Make Way for Ducklings parade through Beacon Hill. And every year, there's always one kid dressed like a giant ball of feathers.

A newspaper photographer asked the cop below for his name. "Officer Mike" he said. No, really, she replied. Officer Mike will do, he told her, as he continued to pose with the ducklings crossing Beacon Street.

It's a tale of loss and redemption, and it would make one helluva video game.
