The heartbroken mum of a little boy killed by a pick-up while riding his new bike on a family farm has paid tribute.
Ianto Jenkins, three, tragically died after being struck by the vehicle - which is said to have been driven by his dad Guto Jenkins.
Devastated Chloe Picton has now issued a statement about her son following the horror incident on Tuesday.
Police were called to the farm in the village of Efailwen near Clynderwen, Pembrokeshire, but Ianto was already dead.
Chloe said: "Ianto was my blue eyed boy, he was inspiration to life, he was a kind little boy who was always smiling and laughing.
"His best friend was his older sister Seren, who were always joined at the hip.
"Ianto loved going to nursery and was excited to start his first day at school in Ysgol Beca in Efailwen in September. He loved being out on the farm and going on the tractor with his daddy.
"Ianto and I had a very strong bond, he was “Mummy’s little boy” and was always by my side everywhere we went. Now that’s been taken from me.
"No parent should lose a child and I would like people to respect our wishes, giving us space at this very difficult, heart breaking time."
Dad Guto is said to have been driving a pick-up truck and trailer in the yard of his dairy farm when he hit his son.
No one else was injured and Dyfed-Powys Police have launched a probe into the circumstances surrounding the collision.
Both Guto and Chloe have changed their profile pictures on Facebook to show their love for Ianto.
Police said they were called to the 270-acre dairy farm at around 7pm on August 3.
The plot is run by Guto and was bought by his dad Iwan and mum Meinir in 1994.
The force said the death was not being treated as suspicious and it was working with the coroner to investigate.
The Health and Safety Executive have also been informed.
