Two India Moments Since Ageing Up

The first photo is from right after India lost her first tooth. The rest are of her playing in the treehouse — which holds a lot of meaning for the family.

When Timothy found out his cancer was terminal, he used every bit of strength he had left to build that treehouse for his grandchildren. Now that India is finally old enough, she gets to be the first grandchild to play in it. I can’t help but imagine Timothy watching her from somewhere, proud and smiling.

If you’re interested in following the Hayes family, they’ve grown a lot but are still very chaotic. My post titled "The Hayes Family" includes an in-depth beginning on the family, along with other posts about them. like this one
