"They would always watch Frozen 2 or Coco together and especially Alvin and the Chipmunks - that was Amelia-Rose’s first and favourite cartoon she watched.
“She also adored her baby sister Lexi-Jade - she would stand at the bottom of her Moses basket and hold her foot or stand at the top and smile at Lexi-Jade.
"We weren’t allowed to put Lexi-Jade down until Amelia-Rose stroked her hair.

Hide Ad“Amelia-rose was a cheeky, loving, little girl who would keep me and her dad and her family on our toes. There was never a day were Amelia-Rose wouldn’t be smiling or doing something mischievous.
“She loved everything to do with cars or bikes - the same as her dad and grandad. I'll never forget the day Amelia-Rose was playing on her ride-along bike and Hailie-Mai wanted to watch Frozen, Amelia-Rose noticed she changed the film so she got off her car, walked over and tapped Hailie-Mai on her head, did a cheeky laugh and gave her a cuddle.
“After that we nicked named her Mi Mi the boss baby, or as nana and grandad would call her ‘paper masher’ as she would always have paper in her hands.
“Amelia-Rose had her very own special bond with her sisters, me and her dad, grandad and nana, and her family.
