Born in Sydney on January 7th, 2009 she was the daughter of Melanie McLean and David Edwards.
Ceilidh was a very happy and pleasant child, known to her loving family as their “Little Chicken Pie”. She always had a huge glowing smile on her face and when she smiled her big eyes smiled as well. She enjoyed going to Passchendaele Pre School, where she made many friends with both staff and children. Ceilidh loved her little sister Zoe and her step-sister Taylor who was also her best friend. She enjoyed going to the park to feed the ducks, she also enjoyed coloring, singing and dancing. Her favourite place was at Nanny McLean’s house being cuddled by Nanny as they both rocked in the rocking chair and hummed songs.
