Quite a few years ago, on australia Day, we woke up to find that someone had put Australian flags next to each driveway in Theodore (It turned out it was a Real Estate company). Kayleigh was the first one to see them and was so excited she ran up and down the street taking them so all of her brothers and sisters had one. Terence dared her to climb the bus stop pole in front of our house and put her flag at the top - I don't think he though Kayleigh could climb the pole - she was only about 9 at the time. Kayleigh took one look at the pole, took her flag and went straight to the top placing her flag between the pole and the bus stop sign. It lasted about 3 days before it went missing.
Every Australia Day and ANZAC day, Kayleigh made sure we had a flag and she put it up on the top of the bus stop. Last ANZAC day she caught some teenagers knicking off with it, she confronted them but they just laughed and walked off. This year, Natassja has put the flag up for Kayleigh.
i remember driving down the road and seeing that out the front on the pole my mum said it showed great aussie pride lol i never knew it was kayleigh who did it. what a great little girl and im amazed she could climb at 9 hehe i couldnt even climb at that age. kayleigh was just amazing.
