HANNAH was born on 30 May 1988. Roy, my husband, and I had wanted a child for a while but it never seemed to be the right time. So we were overjoyed when she arrived.
She was a gorgeous little girl.
Although she was only small she was a real tomboy and very independent, even from an early age.
I remember we had to have locks fitted to all the windows - it wasn't to keep burglars out but to keep Hannah in!
Another time, she managed to get hold of a pair of scissors and cut off her lovely, long hair.
I went mad, but she always seemed to have a way of putting things into perspective.
