Climbing

Kayleigh liked to climb - on everything. From a young age up until she died, she would take every opportunity to climb on things. Kayleigh managed to climb onto a top bunk by the age of 9 months, and learnt to climb back down by the time Natassja was born. Kayleigh climbed trees, and playground equipment, and other structures.

We were down at Calwell Shops about 2 weeks before she passed away and she climbed to the top of the bandstand/gazebo thing in front of the shops - and I mean all the way, hanging off the structure. I could stand underneath her and she still couldn't touch the top of my head it was that far up. At Bunnings, she would jump up and hang on the top of the playgrounds hand rail and monkey up until she was hanging off the top handrail from the highest point of the bridge part in the playground. Kayleigh had amazing upper body strenght (her PE teacher could have told you this).

  2. I took that photo on top of Mt Franklin. She was always a bit of a monkey, and loved to climb anything around. Fond memories....
