Im not sure with the twins really, Eve died before we had Amy, but she 'knows' about Eve to an extend. If I say 'wheres Eve?' she runs and gets her photo and gives it a kissor sometimes she looks up to the sky and waves at her.
My Son was 3 when Eve died and it was 3.5 years ago and he remembers her and brings her up randomly in conversations. Then again he does have a very good memory, he recalls stuff I've long forgotton from our old house, when he was 2.

my son randomly comes out with daddy sky all the time by himself but it was me who told him daddys in the sky. but then he also comes out with things that i havent ever mentioned. like he saw a dominos pizza poster that also had a bottle of coke.
zane pipes up with daddys drink. he loved pizza n wud have a bottle of coke with it. my oh hadnt had a pizza n coke for months before he died but zane remembered it.
i do think toddlers memories are alot better then we think, but there are certain things they only do and say because they are told it

Its strange what they remember at that age i think- seems a bit hit and miss really, Ollie saw me giving Eve CPR but I dont think he remembers as he has never mentioned it (But then again he wont remember the significance of it, plus it was 3am) but he remembers stuff about his bedroom and the old car.
Bless your little boy, I feel so sorry for kids having to deal with loss and grief
I have two children older than Honey, one was 3 years and 19 days when she born and one was 22 months, so the 22 month old was 5 months younger than the twins were when Maddie went missing and the 3 year old was 9 months older. They both talk about Honey with affection, they miss her very much and cry very real tears for her, as they do Riley Rae. My little boy remembers burying Honey (we never mentioned that part to him), he talks about the holiday we had and she was kicking in my tummy less than a month before she grew her wings, now that may be because we have talked to him about it, we do keep her memory alive, but he very much believes it is his memory, so it does come across that way. My little girl (22 month old) not so much but she remembers certain things, and again talks about with affection. Now my other baby has grown her wings and I have a little girl who was 3 a month after Riley Rae was born, she again talks about her all the time and is grieving for her, I imagine she will continue to talk about her for a long time to come, she says she misses Riley Rae, and she wont go to bed without her 'Honey' teddy and 'Riley Rae' teddy. And my children never got to meet in the way Sean and Amelie did, nor spend two years of their life with them. Idk, children do remember a lot, and they do grieve. Oh and if Morgan or Naomi-Mae write a card they always write; Morgan, Naomi-Mae, Kaysie, Honey and Riley Rae, if we go out for the day they always like to include Honey (and will probably want to include Riley Rae now) by doing something for her, like sending a balloon or drawing a picture, blowing her a kiss at the seaside. These are normal things for them.

its awful that ur boy had to see that, so lucky that he doesnt remember it or doesnt talk about it anyway.
yes its crazy what children remember, zane could pick his dads car our off 100still so im selling it, i dont want zane to see it and think daddys home.
he comes out with so much on his own which is lovely he remembers but also makes me sad.
thats why i dont like the fact the McCanns seems to be putting so much into their childrens heads, its not fair on them at all.

So sad that these things are 'normal' for us and our children
Why do they have to tell potential buyers of the previous owners, is that just a portugese thing, dont think they do that her, do they?

I dont know, but there was a similar problem in a house near my parents but it was housing association. Basically, the father brutally killed his wife in front of his children, it was very messy and took a long time to clean up, when it was eventually ready the housing association had to tell the people they were showing around as possible tenants, and so it is not long until it is four years and it has only recently had someone move in as everyone said no.
I dont know how to put this, it is actually quite hurtful to read some of this. My little girl was just less than two, it was four years ago yesterday since Honey was born sleeping, and she still talks about her, I dont feel like I fill her head with stuff but I do believe it is important that I allow them to talk, it took us long enough to get to the point where they would, they were so angry and sad but didnt know how to express it all. The thing is Honey and now Riley Rae would of been a huge part of their lives, so I think it is only natural they continue to talk about them, and I guess them same for Maddie and her younger twins.
