Aya's Blue Bay
For the Aya who will grow up one day — a small, soft album of her childhood.
A letter to the Aya of the future
Hello, Aya. If you are reading this, you are probably big enough to read. We have been writing this little website for you since you were born — saving every laugh, every small hand, every dress, every sea. One day, when you are older, you can come back here and see how you grew up, and how much you were loved, from the very first day.
