This is my nephew, Hayden. I took these pictures just 3 days after we laid his grandfather Johnny to rest. What still amazes me is the pure joy that can come from a roll in the leaves. Of course, Hayden isn't old enough to know of the loss and pain but still he lives in the moment regardless of the circumstances. For a few brief moments there was no sorrow only leaves to run through and his aunt to chase. This was a week filled with the unexpected: sorrow wrapped in joy.
