This is Sebastian's mom...I couldn't be happier that he was found today, what a blessing! Thank you to the public and many friends and friends of friends that have prayed for him and our family during this tragic time. Just wanted to clarify how he was found. I did tell the news reporter Noah that a viewer had spotted him at WalMart, but I later found out it was the amazing Pleasant Grove Police Officer that I was working with during Sebastian days missing. Officer Roberts from Pleasant Grove is absolutly amazing, and he never gave up his search-he had a gut feeling about WalMart and went there. Thank God he listened to his instincts! I will forever be greatful for you! Anne-Marie Welch
