4 Years ...

This is my baby girl ...


We bicker, she answers back, she is INCREDIBLY messy ...

but she is the light of my life.

She is 9 years old but still looks like a baby when she is fast asleep with her arms above her head and her cheeks flushed pink.

I adore her and couldn't begin to imagine life without her.

I'm not a perfect mummy.  I don't think any mummy is.

Four years ago, Madeleine McCann was snatched from her holiday apartment in Praia Da Luz in Portugal.

Madeleine will be 8 years old on 12th May.



Whatever your thoughts about the circumstances surrounding her disappearance, please spare a thought.  For her parents.  For her brother and sister.  Most importantly, for her.

Wherever you are Madeleine, I hope you're safe and being nurtured.  You're not forgotten sweetie.

  1. OMG is it really 4yrs since Maddie was lost? How awful. I truly hope that she is safe and that one day she will realise who she is and find her way home.

    Your daughter is lovely....

  2. Lovely post Heather - have to admit I do sometimes think about her, hope she is safe, and pray she gets home soon. Miss S is 9 too - so I know just where you are coming from. Particularly about the messy and answering back parts!! xx

  6. Was just reading an article in today's paper about her and couldn't believe its four years ago. Every parent's worst nightmare! I have thought about it often since it happened. Lovely Blog btw.
