LITTLE CEEJAY MCARDLE is the three-year-old Monaghan boy who dreams of growing up to be part of the Gardaí.

Ceejay was sadly diagnosed with leukaemia at the age of two – but that didn’t stop him becoming Ireland’s youngest and most adorable Garda recruit last year.

And yesterday he led the Drogheda St Patrick’s Day parade in full uniform

Famously, Ceejay has support from police forces all over the world – and yesterday the messages kept on coming in
